MurderedMk4
« on: 24 April 2011, 17:19 »
Thought I'd make a diary of murdering my Mk4 Golf..

When it came to me, it was a standard 2.0 GTI. I was pretty fussy and wanted a three door and for it to be black in colour which I soon found out are becoming pretty rare.. Anyway, came away with this black beauty and I'm not looking back!

As the car came to me:

Some more from the side:


Not in too bad nick I don't think..

The standard GTI alloys, sadly coming off ;)


And the interior which is looking pretty nasty tbh..

Bit of a background check on me: I'm a girl, 18, and this is my first real project, although I have already had two Mk4's before this one.. I knew this project would be done pretty slowly as I may have to wait to save money etc.. As I said before, I set out looking for a black, three door GTI because I want to murder it..

Anyway, I thought I'd start somewhere easy and costing nothing at all, Job 1 was to de-wiper my boot. Pleased to say, I managed it, even if I did get crazy with the plastic boot cover.. :tongue:



Next low costing thing was to tint my rear lights black- usually don't dig this look but everything on this beaut is going black so couldn't have it looking out of place..
