hi guys and girls and kinda new to this forum am looking to do some cheap mods to my mk 3 gti but not sure ware to start do like the look of boot lid risers under bonet and will prob be doing this at the weekend but does anyone have any surjestions just dont have much cash at the min and but still wanna improve the mk 3
-
dont bother with visual mods to start with
if you just got the car 1st thing i would do is service it even if it has just been done then look at mechanics of the car ie handling ect..
then finish with visual mods
well thats what im gonna do anyways
im sure other people will have other comments

thanks for the reply have had it about 1 year did cam belt shocks, springs, wish bones, brakes, roll bars, all sorts when i first got it change the oil every 5k just wanna make it look a bit smarter but cant decide ware to start

(http://i1100.photobucket.com/albums/g407/candyman40/DSC00269.jpg) am trying to get pic on my profile but not having much luck so trying to put image on this topic its a standard mk 3 gti 8 valve in red with black rims was thinking black badges to start
-
Are your wing mirrors mystic blue? :huh:
Anyway, I would go with smoked side repeaters/indicators/fog lights, joey modded and tint film to the headlights, black grill slats, black badges, dewipered rear, pressed metal number plates, wolfsburg surrounds, VR6 front splitter, lower bumper vents and lower it.......oh wait.....I did do that! :grin:
-
ha ha only one of the mirrors is some dick decided to nick one of them and not had chance to paint it yet am thinking black badges vr6 splitter would lower bud ware i live would kill the car, number plates and surrounds are coming soon for sure, smoked lenes sounds quite good
-
Go faster stripes, under car neons, lots of chrome oh and rear lexis lights! :cool:
-
BMW or Audi front end....
-
lexis lights yuk yuk :sick: and almost 30 so under neons am a bit to old for that and dont realy want loads of young boy racers around my car when i pop to asda for some beer or somin. lol but a bmw frunt end sounds intresting might haft to look in to that

Get anything that NEEDS sorting done before you start doing things you WANT.
Servicing, any worn parts, any fluid renewal, etc.
Then get on to cosmetics. A good clean will always be a good starting point, that way you'll know what you're dealing with :smiley:

think i am decided on black badges and grill strips to start then get my wing mirrors painted but untill i get some more cash am a bit stuck, i do want new head lights though they make a big diffrence i think and have seen quads on mk3s and they look sweet :cool: :cool: any one got any surjestions for inside am thinking of black white check for roof lining but not sure if it will be to much :undecided: :undecided: have a half decent audio setup might paint pillars black??
