Looks like a lot of work, how does the white trim on the alloy look with the tyre on? Does it not make it look like an american car with white wall tyres??

Thats gonna look sweet when its done! I must admit I do like that R32 rear bumper... Those lights standard R32/ED30 tinted? They look darker (unless its the light). Nice wheels as well! Looking forward to seeing the finished article! :cool:

I do like the R32 centre Exhaust!

Is it the standard one? is it a straight forward fit?

You are putting those BBS's to good use Rob  :smiley:  Plus the R32 rear is very impressive!
Going to look superb when all done together... now I just need to get all my bits done... you have motivated me to step up a gear... wish I worked in a garage though  :wink:

Looking good Rob.  Very nice indeed!

Looking great, buddy :smiley:. Very individual and very tasteful, unlike some of the GTI modding that gets done over the pond in America!

looks mint Rob, where did you get your skirts/bumpers/front lip from, looking to get my shadow blue GTi colour coded but want to get the 'supplied in primer' parts to ensure paint adhesion as I gonna keep the car a while, got some big power plans :evil:

Title: Re: Making a few changes
Post by: TeddyKGB on 28 July 2007, 13:50

Title: Re: Making a few changes
Post by: Manu_R32 on 28 July 2007, 13:52

Does it still have standard cats exhaust or is it a Milltek?

Title: Re: Making a few changes
Post by: Rob-MK5 on 28 July 2007, 14:27

Just standard cats,  :cry: My next few mods will hopefully be to give more power,

All togther now just got to give it a clean and get some finished pictures  :smiley:

Title: Re: Making a few changes
Post by: Manu_R32 on 29 July 2007, 07:25

Looks Greatt!! Yet another new desktop background :)

Is it an ED30 Front Spoiler??  :smiley:
BBS CH Rims Aswell?? What Size?
If you dont mind me asking, how much did all that cost you??

Enjoy it...im sure you will  :wink:

possibly the best looking MKV i've seen  :cool:

Title: Re: Making a few changes
Post by: NORTHERNER on 29 July 2007, 09:47

I am not Rob (obviously  :wink:) but the front is a Votex, the BBS CH are 19's (they used to be mine) - they look great the way Rob has done them, suit the white really well.
I am inspired to sort my car asap, just having problems finding decent suppliers in my region... seem to be no alloy refurb places, VW garages are crap at getting back to me on a quote for a new front and colour coding the sides... rubbish!!

Absolutely gorgeous car Rob.

I only wish all Golf owners had as much taste and style as you!!

I've been toying with the idea of buying some rims to trial with spraying black and those 19's CHs look amazing!

Please post more pictures if you have some!

Title: Re: Making a few changes
Post by: Pabs32 on 01 August 2007, 13:50

Very tastefully done. Looks smart.
Did u have to paint the rear valence black or is that the finish it came with?
Does anyone know if you can get a replacement black valence (for ed30) to fit with the standard exhaust ?
Pabs.

Title: Re: Making a few changes
Post by: PaulGTI on 08 August 2007, 20:37

That car is wonderful mate - you've got great taste!!

Love the dark BBS rims against the white and going for the R32 exhaust rather than an aftermarket exhaust - pure class!

Title: Re: Making a few changes
Post by: Ollieb7 on 08 August 2007, 21:03

I couldn't add any further complements to all the ones you have already - well in keeping with the ethos - looks fantastic but yet still looks stock - great - now i'm jelious!

Has all this work cost you much on insurance? Looks excellent by the way, maybe better before the side logos though. :cool:

Title: Re: Making a few changes
Post by: herbster on 08 August 2007, 23:12

You should be paid for advertising, if its gonna make your car look like that!!!!


By the way big   :drool: for the rest of it though.  :wink:
