I also like how the majority have had to be shown either not on the car or fitted but unpainted as they were far too horrific for anyone to actually buy/fit/admit to owning  :grin:

I'm just waiting for someone to come along and give it the whole "each to their own, if we all had the same car" etc etc blah blah  :grin:

I have looked at that site before they should be tortured for even thinking that those should sold to be put on Golfs.

Snow plough an plastic are for Corsa's and Saxo ..keep away from Golfs !

Also make sure you get it sprayed in a slightly different shade to the rest of your car as the picture demonstrates so well...

I had a look at the site earlier and I think its bad photoshopping as opposed to the bumpers being sprayed / colour matched badly  :grin:

Post by: Kerrse on 21 May 2010, 19:08

I don't like people who follow the trends with their Golfs just because it's the fashion but there is taste and not having taste, why would anyone want a Golf to look like that blue one.

If you want a car that looks like that buy a Corsa or a Saxo please god anything but a Golf it gives Golf drivers a bad name lol

I love this topic :grin:

For example..my mother language it's italian (being born on the "italian" speaking side of Switzerland)..so this made me check on italian forums about tuning etc..well..there this style (which is called "Spanish") it's a must. This means, that a car with some of those horrible body kits listed on the link on page1, will be more considered than an erotic looking german style Golf..like this for example..

(http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3241/3095567921_a8eb37cd4d.jpg)

I think it's a matter of trends..more local trends if you ask me. Here in switzerland you can't spot so easily a devastated looking Golf..you may find one, but they're very rare (God bless this..). I think that, this kind of "tuning" isn't having taste for aesthetics, but just seeking the excess in order to be "the one that added more stuff" on his car.. :smiley:

Title: Re: Some horrors on here!
Post by: JDM82 on 30 May 2010, 13:26

I actually designed them body kits for the golf and when I get out of prison for crimes to humanity ill certainly be designing some more!  :grin:

Good god no no no !!!!!!!!!!! I was joking I didnt design them I cant even draw!
