Got lot's more on the bf's cam but needing to upload them etc. Will keep updated. :smiley:
-
Nice!! :)
-
Looking good there Rosie :cool:
-
Epic FAIL IMO....
Only kidding, this is the best golf I have ever seen, even better I have the priviledge of Rosie being my better half, so I get to see this car all the time and drive it when im allowed :smiley:
-
Very nice. What side skirts are those?
-
I like the front but not the side sills/skirts.
-
Very nice. What side skirts are those?
Thanks, they are Reiger sides and front splitter.
-
Looks good in Silver!
Although the side view reminds me of a civic type R?! otherwise i rate it!
-
Love it :smiley:

Think its the wheels that make you think this mate...
-
not my cuppa T im afraid, it just doesnt look right some how? maybe the blackn'd glass or the camera doesnt do it justice?. sorry rosie
-
I bet speed bumps are your worst nightmare! :afro: I've only dropped mine by about 25mm and Im having problems :wink:
-
:cool: :cool: :cool: loving the reirger splitter :drool:
-

Och you wheesht you :rolleyes: FYI, the glass ain't blackend, it is tinted 30%. I don't like limo tints
Thanks to everyone else, except Steve, who is just jealous at the end of the day.
Speed bumps make me cry :cry: But, what can i say? I like 'em low and hard :smug:
-
you can change you sig pic now :smiley:
-
Good point! I am going to so that, but i think i will wait till we get the other pics off Bobby's cam. They are much better. Plus this pic is on his photobucket so i couldnt edit it to the right size etc. untill he is with me or trusts me with his password lol.
:smiley: woohoo, i'm so happy :grin:
-
I like it :cool:
and it's a 5dr in Silver, so it must be good :wink:
-
See Hurdy. We just have fantastic taste. You can't buy that :wink:

Bitttttttttttttttt harsh! He only gave his humble opinion!
Looking forward to more pics of your car though. Has your front splitter got pretty damaged due to the speed bumps, or are you coping ok so far?
-
Ach he know's how to take me.......
It's all just good banter.
Splitter, as far as i know, is ok. I can't really see under to check lol. I know the bumps i can take and the ones i can't. It is a pain and i get a lot of people gettting pi$$ed off behind me, but i still love it. The one thing i will say though, is that because it is carbon fibre at the bottom it can take a bit more bumps and scratches than if that wasn't there. Which is why i chose that one.
Oh, also, had a wee bump in it. The other side skirt that you can't see in that pic, got caught and is half off. Was gutting, it happend like 2 days after i got everything put on. :cry:
Shouldn't be too bad to fix and my mates fella has offered to do it one day for nowt.
-
lol, i thought you were gonna chew my knackers off for saying what i said!!!, got off lightly lol.
It does look good Rosie, just get a better cam luvvy :wink:
-
I bet speed bumps are your worst nightmare! :afro: I've only dropped mine by about 25mm and Im having problems :wink:
....Then perhaps I better keep you informed of my progress with the KW lift system (up to 45 mm) VWR is checking for me.

i cant believe you would spend 3k on that system!! not worth it imo :undecided:
-
The cars looking good Rosie.
I like the stance. It looks very menacing. Maybe a bit too much silver. Want to consider getting the rims done in black maybe?

-
It does look good Rosie, just get a better cam luvvy :wink:
It was only taken on My N95 :sad: but there are a lot more when I get my laptop running for the card reader for the digi cam
-

I already have a million and one pics on here within members motors :wink:
-
Tis true, phil knows how to push my buttons in all the wrong ways!
I have been considering getting the wheels black or that other colour..... Bobby help me out here, we were talking about it the other day....., perhaps with a silver line thingy (i dont know the technical term) round the outer edge? What do you all think?It does look good Rosie, just get a better cam luvvy :wink:

The ones on the cam should be a lot better quality and she had just been lovingly washed lol.
-
Looks really good!! Dont really think it needs anything doing to it.... maybe the wheels a little darker but thats about it :cool: :cool: :cool:
-
Yep, seriously considering getting the wheels done. TBH they need refurbed anyway.

Then it just looks like an edition30 depending on which ones, personally I love them but whats the point in personalising your car to that standard to then get edition30 wheels.
I love these

Lovelly wheels!!! :cool: :cool:
Just need to loose the audi bits :wink:
-
A bit too max power for my liking, I like the gti for it's slightly understated appearance. I agree the above wheels are lovely.
-
looks the dogs rossie. the wheels look o.k :wink:
-
If you do get the wheels re-furbed Rosie how about a dark Anthracite?

:afro:
Yeah that was the colour i was thinking of!!! Well done :smiley:
-
No probs :afro:
they look a bit grey in the pic but in the flesh they are metallic and look different shades when the light is/isn't on them :cool:

I am actually going to ignore that comment, seeing as you have no pics up of whatever car you have and it appears you have f**k all nice to say to anyone.
Did your mother never tell you that if you have nothing nice to say then say nothing at all.
-
not my cuppa T im afraid, it just doesnt look right some how? maybe the blackn'd glass or the camera doesnt do it justice?. sorry rosie
+1
Not liking the kit at all, OEM is much better imo. ETTO though :smiley:
Love the wheels though. If you do get them refurbed anthracite, they would look immense with a polished lip.
-
rosie I think lewy has a set of those audi rims he be selling atm, sold look pretty fuuckij sweet on there!

are you normal!!?? :huh: :huh: the wheels you posted are BBS? how would it look like an ed30 with BBS alloys, you do realise that BBS make more alloys than the 18" CH? (which is whats on an ed30) :huh: :huh:
-

Keep me updated on these please Jord. You got my number or you can PM me. Ta
-
Lol i was posting my opinion and I thought I was being nice, in all honesty it looks like what a 17 year old would do to a corsa in my opinion but I held that back, if you want to ruin a decent car then your choice. Not sure what other negative comments I have given in the past and for your info I have a 3 door ed 30, left as factory if you'd like to criticise..
-
Everyone has different tastes, some will love what Rosie has done, others think it maybe abit "MaxPower" which has been said.
As long as she's happy, thats all that counts, Everyone has different likes and dislikes, so hopefully people must understand that some may
critisize whilst others will praise. Best not to let things get taken to heart to much.

Exactly...clearly you like it and thats all that should matter :smiley:
-
i vaguely remember you were doing something with your exhaust and rear bumper, any pics of the rear end?
-
Epic FAIL IMO....

I'd agree with the first bit.
-
dont take no notice darl, your car is sweet and your young, remember that most people that posted on this thred are over 35,
oh and i really do not agree with what you bf said about the bbs,please make him explain :huh:
-
I'm 24
-
oh and i really do not agree with what you bf said about the bbs,please make him explain :huh:
I just dont think she should get the BBS that are on the edition30, I really do like BBS alloys, BBS and dubs are always a perfect match, I just think if she wanted it to look like an edition30 then she should have bought one, and the only thing externally that really distiguishes the diffeence between the standard gti and the edition30 is the alloys. I have said to her to get BBS alloys, but just no the RC (if thats what they are :huh:) but maybe something different, as her car is different to most other mk5's so she should keep that in mind :)

....Not just the different alloys but the Ed30 has colour coded valances all round.

Thanks Joe. I think that to say the car resembles something a 17 year old would do to a corsa is perhaps taking it a bit far. I do appreciate that everyone has their own oppinion, but that was just mean.
Like you say, i am young, and if i fancy chaving up my car a bit, then i will. I thought it was all quite subtle (to a certain extent), it's only a splitter at the front, not a full bumper, there is no change to the back, the sides were the best ones i saw, i didnt want to keep them standard.
But hey, i look forward to max power getting in touch and wanting the car on the front cover. Woohoo! Fame at last.

Oh aye bring the age thing into it :tongue:, people say I am having a mid life crisis but how do they now I am at mid life :undecided:?????
your BF's right about the alloys though, your better doing what you want, distinguish dont blend, folk's say to me you cant take a good mk2 shell and turn into a trackday car thats sacrilege........ but i can, coz its mine :tongue: :evil:

The R32 exhausts on the GTI rear valence looks awesome. Nice one :smiley:
-
Nice selection but perhaps a black lower valance around the Zorsts?. The rear end doesnt look quite right....maybe an R32 rear bumper needed?.
Love the Headlights, and side skirts photo'd better this time. Not sure on the front lower spliter, again maybe the way its photo'd but looks abit Fat!!.(outa proportion)
Alloys look Fab!!. Well done On the whole though rosie.
She certainly a Mean Machine :smiley:
-
Like I said before.... I like!! She looks mean :grin: :grin:
-
I would get that airbag fault sorted :undecided:
-
Lights look :cool:
