Title: Re: Robs VR6 (south West)
Post by: Malz0r on 08 September 2010, 14:59

im a plank, sorry, should have thought before i posted :D
think im gonna have to get mine professionally rolled and pulled, cos im wanting to go a bit wider and theres no hope of that with mine so low!
yeah, same tyre size here, must be a low offset on these wheels maybe!
gonna be refurbing mine soon, cant wait!
should be well happy with yours though mate! makes mine look a right donkey at the minute :D

ah to me a mod is a mod, i'm not as down with the kids as i like to think  :laugh: ... Hmmmm, vento front, its probably only me but never keen on it, might look great on yours though???  at least its one of theose mods thats interchangeable.
Title: Re: Robs VR6 (south West)
Post by: robz on 10 September 2010, 19:15

Title: Re: Robs VR6 (south West)
Post by: robz on 11 September 2010, 07:31
Ya need bonnet lights and grill!
Don't need slam panel or wings!
Just be aware re square or oval (I think) light plugs, but ya can always chop the right one in!!
Title: Re: Robs VR6 (south West)
Post by: Malz0r on 11 September 2010, 08:22
I was told if your going golf to bento you do need slam panel but if your going bento to golf you don't?

And these headlights have been redone for plugs already :) just gotta respray it all ad it's light blue!

Title: Re: Robs VR6 (south West)
Post by: Malz0r on 11 September 2010, 16:29
Yea mate iv got the twin fans? Is that the prob?
Title: Re: Robs VR6 (south West)
Post by: robz on 11 September 2010, 17:32
Not too sure tbh! If it was me I wouldn't worry about it until you were doing it, sure ya don't need it for fitting, and you need a panel that will hold the twin fan!
Hth
