mk3 front end :D
« on: 17 February 2008, 17:02 »
hi guys...seeing as im building a golf track car i want the front end to look abit "harder"...i like the idea of a vento front end but i know i have to change the arches/grill/bonnet/bumper (might be worth it :p) or should i stay with the mk3 standard lights???

the other thing i have in mind is lighting...i want the road to be lit up better but not sure what is the best option for a slag looking car :p...i did think morettes but dont think they go with the theme...any opinions???  :grin:

ventos have the worst lighting ever...and rarer which for a track car is important as some bits will break!
standard mk3 lights with the brightest bulbs possible is my opinion

yes you can do an HID conversion to standard mk3 lights

without 'clear' lenses I would question whether you would get the full benefit though and there is the age old question of whether they are 'road legal' as I don't know if you will be taking your track car on the road
