« on: 02 October 2009, 20:53 »
just after a pic or two of a golf without its side skirts. the more golfs im seeing with out the gti plastic bits the more im liking the idea of taking mine off lol i have always liked the clean look but the gti kit dont realy give that. anyways woundered what they look like with out side skirts. im becoming a fan of the no arch's or spoilers just vr6 splitter and rear splitter slamed on deep dish wheels with smooth look.  get posting guy's  :cool:

its only removing the arches... hoping you dont have rust, polishing the paintwork underneath where the arch was, and fitting some CL trim by the front arch... simples

Trust me it is easy, took me all off 4 hours to remove all the kit and replace the bumpers and side trimes with CL spec ones, gave it a good polish as required.

The GTI side trims are thicker than CL side trims so technically he'd have to buy a complete set of CL side trims. Which I just so happen to have :wink:
