Title: Fresh from the Beauty Salon
Post by: Komenda on 30 November 2007, 14:18

Havn't posted any pics of my car yet so thought I would share these as I just got it back from the bodyshop. Had the skirts and rear bumper colour coded, It looked odd with just the splitter silver and the rest black. You'll have to excuse the winter wheels, I have some BBS CH's which will go on when all the winter grime has gone.

Hope you like.

I like, That kit looks great.

What size are those BBS? 19" would look crazy  :drool: :evil:

Thanks dude  :cool:

They are indeed 19's I ordered them yesterday. Its the ABT splitter. I wouldn't recommend it if you use your car everyday as it is very low. I think it gives the car a better stance.

I would not bother with my moms car. Ours battles getting up our driveway and most slopes as it is and its stock  :laugh:

My grans Honda Jazz actually has less clearance..... But somehow gets up our driveway with ease??

19" is sweet on a GTI. And I agree the stance is improved greatly. Im talking my dad into getting my moms car colourcoded as a small prezzie.

I was hoping it would make it look a bit more aggressive  :evil:.  I'm happy with the look of the car, and the wheels will set it off in the summer.

Only the coilovers and remap to do now and I'll leave it alone.
