Golfs fit into body kits like a fat man in a thong... its not rite. 

The only one i could just about tollerate was the Vento front, because its the closest one to OEM i guess, but i wouldnt mind that one,  i dont like the rear bumpers,  Smoothed stock ones look sh*t loads better.  :smiley:

no valver yet, saving up a load, so when i buy it, i aint using all my money and if decide to sell the 1.4 then i will have extra cash from that too!

having a clean car with great bodywork is hard enough! No rust? - you've done it :afro:

Err...  No?

If you do it, you must be prepared that whatever you spend you will not get back, and also, as you can see by the number of people saying no, your market is severly limited come sale time, propably making the car worth less than a standard one.

Unless you have money you can afford to throw away, be very careful wth big body mods.  IMO, keep them so you can return to standard come resale time.

But of course, you might just want to do it for the hell of it anyway.  I did once (and never again to this extent!).





"hello, yes, taxi for one".

The spending of 10k getting it new and approximatly 6k modding it to sell it for £1k (ok, was 7 years old by then..), was the wrong thing about it!
