Dom's Mk4 Story So Far - it's all over!

[dom]

Very nice mate!! Whats next on the list body wise!?

Cheers

Source & paint some sideskirts, either different headlights or modify current ones and that's about it for the moment. Once that is done suspension will be sorted, still trying to decide whether to go down the route of shocks/springs or coilies. Probably get some decent lowering springs for the moment & save for a good set of coilovers, once that is done I'll look at wheels

(Again front bumper dirty & valance clean, the colour match is actually perfect )

Smug fatherless son!

Is that Wherry speak for 'Looks f*cking awesome?'

Maybe...

Seeing as everyone loves a bit of carbon:



Got rid of the horrible walnut trim

Nice! Is it the 3m Di-noc you used?

I figured that for £0.99 you can't really go wrong! It's very easy to work with, I just need to order some more to do the ash tray cover & the rear door pulls

That looks really good

Car looks really clean Dom good job on the spoiler and the carbon bits I done my heater control panel and it turned out well but I cant detach the other bits you have done on yours round the stero etc.I was having second thoughts after I bought my mk4 as ive got loads to do to it but after using it everyday its a better car than my mk3 and glad i made the move and it nice to buy a car without any rust issues lol cars looking good though dom

I've wrapped all of the walnut in mine apart from the ash tray cover, I've got some more vinyl on the way to do that. Also ordered a new gearknob to replace the walnut one

Have you got black trim in yours? If so you'll need a different radio cage, or just take your cage out & wrap it then put it back in

I know what you mean about having loads to do to it, I'm the same, just not got the cash at the moment

Yeah my surrounds that is just plain black and you cant do anything with it as in change it I think its standard in Gt tdis as my dads isthe same but he has just stuck a Anni set on his.I think with mine as its just a standard car it makes me feel ive got shed loads to do but really compared to what ive done to my mk3 its not that much really.Ive started buying small bits mainly tatty trim bits as I cant stand scabby trim in a car  I think yours looks a great base and stick with it and it will come good soon enough.Whats it like now on fuel after the remap as a few people ive spoken to reakon the 20vt after a remap drinks?

Around town I'm seeing around 25mpg, on a mixed run around 30mpg and on a good a-road run around 35mpg - that's driving pretty sensibly though. If I put my foot down those figures drop pretty rapidly....it's worth it though
