Right I thought I would try the Vento front on today I have now decided to go vento.It all needs painting as you can see but you get the idea.Painters on holiday till friday so wount be till next week now but im going to leave it on get the headlight beam lined up and if its on the car once its painted they can line it all up as ive just bolted the bonnet on.Me and my friend are lowering the front end later get it closer to the ground up front.Still dont know weather to leave the grill its original colour as in the slats or do them matt or gloss black.Few pictures bare in mind the bonnets horrible at the moment  :wink:




Im thinking grey or black banded steels summer time  :smiley:

I prefered the Golf front with Hella twins

I would leave the grill as if however as it breaks it up.

I dont normally like vento fronted golfs but that looks really good mate! Id leave the grille black, would compliment the mirrors! Good work.

Will look good mate, can I make a suggestion, tint the headlights and do the grille matt black, might be the picture but looks a bit grey rather than black, will def look good when done though
