no i wouldnt even put genuine r32 bumpers on a car that wasnt an original r32

personally i feel i would rather have the real thing than try an make a look alike whats the point - same as people who try to make cozzie reps - silly imo

you say i have copys on my car like wat?? im not trying to make my car look like a car that it isnt its a gti t simple as i may have kit parts goin on but nothing that wouldnt make it a model its not

im just not a fan of replicas at all

Hmm.. fair enough but what about people with cars like mine that isnt a GTi and isnt an R32, you saying I should buy one of those uber sh!t aftermarket kits? All my bumpers, skirts are genuine r32 anyway but I dont see how you can say putting an r32 bumper on your car is trashy.


*cough* turbo b!tch sticker and chrome grill *cough*  :drool:

ash your different you may have started off with the 1.4 (bog standard poop car) but at least when you did it you put a decent engine init (though wouldnt be my choice of route)

though id wouldnt have gone for a r32 kit genuine or not unless i had a r32 engine conversion at least - but then if i were to do that i would have just bought a genuine one in the first place (if i couldnt afford a genuine one then i jus wouldnt bother) same with yours i would have just bought a genuine turbo (like i have)

as for tacky aftermarket kit im not going for a full kit at all as i dont like the full on kits that are made available for them they imo make a car look to over the top
as for what i do to my car its like yours ash there are gonna be things on it that other people dont like... and thats fine hence my alloys i bought them as i wanted to be different not the same as every othere golf owner and get audi rep alloys (again not a fan of rep alloys either)

Title: Re: very RARE i believe
Post by: Ashmond on 01 August 2008, 13:49
5 doors rule? lol!

I prefer having a car that is a bit different to the norm mate, I could have afforded to just buy a GTi but to be honest I didnt want to - different people different strokes, anybody can buy a Gti but how many people can say they did everything to their car to my extreme themselves with help from 2 or 3 mates?

I understand you wanting to be unique but to say r32 bodykits should only be on r32's is silly imo as its a nicer front bumper then the standard one and also is functionable, could have my front mount with a standard bumper ;)

Title: Re: very RARE i believe
Post by: linz on 01 August 2008, 13:52
i see your point ash but to be honest why spend all that money and do all that work when you can buy an original??


and get all those extras that come with the original as well...

thats just my opinion ash like i said im not a fan of replicas at all if someone wants to thats fine but i laugh at reps as it just means they cant afford the real thing.... and done even have the power ect of the real thing

like i said just my opinion which i am intitled to.... im keeping my standard gti bumpers as she is a gti...

1) Because a) then I could choose the engine I want (aum - KO3s) and engine cost me £700 so its not that much is it, if you upgrade to a KO3s on your engine you got to spend £250 just for the turbo. And another reason is when I smash a Gti and lean over and say "this used to be a 1.4" I get a feeling of reward everytime, other people just go oh its just a Gti so expect it to be quick?

3) When you say extra's what exactly do you mean electric windows, a/c, traction control? Well correct me if im wrong but yours is a Gti and you dont have A/C or ESP?  :huh: Electric windows? Not too bothered about it but if I was it would be an afternoons work and £50?

3) About replica's? Not having the power of the real thing? a) Mine isnt an R32 rep hence the rear bumper smoothed b) no I cant afford an r32 and dont want one the v6 is a petrol killer c) my car has got more power then an r32?

Sorry to break you down but the things you are saying just dont make sense to me, sorry if I offended any other Gti owners here I just want to explain to Linz the reason and method behind the madness
Title: Re: very RARE i believe
Post by: linz on 01 August 2008, 14:10
each to there own ash as for air con i choose not to have it its an extra that doesnt interest me and i dont see the point of gettin one with ac if i aint gonna bother to use it its jus an extra cost that i dont need
all im sayin is are cars are the way we like them which is fine

im just not a fan of replicas i hate them thats my opinion end of

 :huh:

Slight contradiction there darling! What extra's do you get that you use that I dont have? I dont need any of the extra's that a Gti has, not being pedantic but do you see my point?

(Sorry for seeming like im attacking you here but im just trying to get my point across, dont worry, your still a milf)  :drool: :grin:

Ashs Golf is pushing more power than an R32.  :tongue:

I don't really get what you're saying as its making little sense to be honest. Just because someone used a part off another car it means they want the real thing :laugh: Well in Ashs case he's only used the front bumper...  So whatever you add has to be 100% original. I'm sure you own replicas of something Linz even if you don't realise it.

So if you've aero wipered your rear you want a mk5 Golf. Go and buy one the  or can't you afford it.
