Post by: CheshireGTI on 28 March 2004, 20:26
Hi people,

Been reading this forum for a few weeks so finally decided to sign up!  :D

I own a 1996 Mk3 GTI (In my signature, if it's worked) had it for about 6 months and enjoyin every minute of it! Might upgrade to a VR6 when I'm 25, crave more power!  ;D

Cheers
Gary

Chesire - did ur GTI come with those wing indicator lenses? cos mine came with horrid orange ones!
Title: Re:First Post!
Post by: CheshireGTI on 28 March 2004, 22:13
They are orange, i think it's just the light!

Everythings pretty much standard, still undecided about modding it! Might just keep it completely standard.
Title: Re:First Post!
Post by: Cupra Turbo on 28 March 2004, 22:17
??? the ones on ya wing arent orange...

just to the left of ya wing mirror... their smoked. were they standard like that?
Title: Re:First Post!
Post by: CheshireGTI on 28 March 2004, 22:20
I'm sure it's just the light!
