Looks sweet mate. Also looks mean with that intercooler :shocked: :cool:
-
Love it. That is one mean looking mk4 :smiley:
-
pure badass! love front mounts!! well done mate!
dont take offense, but your head lights look ma-hoo-sive!! lol!
-
car bra's dont do it for me but i must admit it kind of suits yours! looks mean as, wheels look good black! :smiley:
-
Dont do car bras, but love that intercooler :D
-
Really like that, very nice job you've done. Any pics of the rear?
-
cheers for the comments fellas will have to get some of the rear soon, even though the transformation is gonna continue into the new year
-
Bet you drive slow over speed bumps now.
-
Is that on the lowest coilover set up on the rear still???
is it ok wiv 4 ppl in? and have you changed you arb??
cheers
looks mean by the way!! :shocked:
-
the rear has cups for adjustment under the springs, i left them out so its just the springs, so its as low as it will go, i have 10mm spacers on the back too and no it doesnt scrape with people in it only a bit on the front. i have changed the arb yeah cause it was scraping the driveshafts i recommend doing it if you like going low
-
looking good. love how low it looks and da black rims set it off nice.
i also dont get the whole bra thing tho?
-

that looks mean as f**k :cool:
-
do u have to have the spacers on the back to stop it rubbin? when ya say th bk is as low as can go, that is on coils yeah?? so bout 100mm
-
Badass :evil:
-
i just had the spacers to look a bit wider, the rear is on adjustables yeah, the springs sit in height adjustable cups but ive left them off so it sits down about 120mm on the back
-
not my cup of tea at all mate, looks like it would be rapid but looks like a dun up banger to be honest. (no offence just giving my opinion) :nerd:
-
Te mk4 is no banger...and i think that the mods that have been done are by no means cheap, but as you say each to thier own. A nice effort in my view,love the front end look!
-
each to there own maybe but if you dont have anything nice to say why bother saying it at all !!!! constructive critisism is all good but insults arnt taken nicely !!!!!! dare ya to show the pics of your NOVA :grin:
-
yeah i agree with Sim show us what you are running before you cast judgement! i dont feel this is the place for negativity as we are all meant to be like minded people, that enjoy the same passion VW motors. If you have nothing positive to add then there is no need to get involved in the thread....
-
Ha ha cheers for the back up fellas!! :smiley:
-
hi GUY_GTI what FMIC is that and did you buy it as a complete kit. THanks
-
Look awseme mate really tmepted to get one my self seen someone selling one that they
have'nt fitted yet could get it for bout £250 i reckon!
-
me an guy are supplying and fitting these kits on the golf for £375 , it involves a hell of alot of bumper work to get it to fit ! its not as simple as bolt it on an watch it go :angry:
-
do u av to cut the bumper. or i read somewhere that people remove the AC condensor n put it behind the rad for more room. just want 2 no wot mod you av to make to the car
-
FMIC looks the nuts mate!

you have to cut loads of the bumper and most of the lower valence away to get it on , guys didnt have air con and even f it did like mine has it still fits in the same place cuse the condenser sits well back , cant really see the point of puttin a front mount behing the radiator and the condenser it would get no airflow what so ever and it would just get heat soaked being that close to the engine !!
-
i'm not sure the car bra is quite my taste but the rest of the car looks gorgeous, anymore plans?

yeah got loadsa plans its just if they work out or not! hoping to go for some new bumpers and wheels and maybe a retrim, also after a nice shiny cage for it

i didnt mean to say *banger* i have a mk4 golf gti aswel, thats y im on this site. But i just think that doing what he has done to his golf ruins the look totally and makes it look modified! which is bad! The way to have it is standard look with subtle mods to give a SMART finish! not a boy racer dun up heap! wam bam thank you mam, anyway.....now have a go at me its fun reading them all :):):)

each to there own, personally i fink it looks agressive and mean, not chavved up at all. if yours is the same as every other mk4 then have it that way but dont critisise when someone does something different. A boy racer couldnt afford the mods on his benefits.
-
i agree!!! This motor looks Sh*t Hot and good effort for goin out and doin it fella!!
its badass and shows power rather than old man heading to tesco wiv his standard mk4??
Any chance of having a look at the engine bay mate? itrigued how different the piping is for a front mount intercooler! :grin:
-
i thought boy racers went for big badly fitted back boxes and neons,not modifications that serve a purpose,and as has been said enhances the look of the car,intercooler looks smart as mate
-
very mean :angry:
big fan of black wheels also, it does it for me!
