Gibbo's Mk4 Golf GTI
« on: 18 September 2011, 10:21 »
1 week after purchase






So i'v owned her for less than a month and i'v started spending money on her  :lipsrsealed:

Crystal Smoked/Red Rear lights
Smoked side repeaters









Found out i need a new clutch and rear bushes  :angry: But on a good note i purchased a Euro wiper delete and a set of pressed plates  :cool:







Poly bushes now in rear end  :cool:  No more very loud clonk when going over bumps  :evil:

Decided i wanted to change the look of my boot so i shaved the GOLF GTI badges.. bought a black VW badge and fitted a Boot extension  :cool:





Update time  :cool:

Was unhappy with how the extension looked with the boot handle and small lip  :rolleyes:

So i'v decided i want a clean smooth look  :cool:





And now for the finished boot  :cool:



Then i got decided i wanted to go lower so i bought a set of 35mm sport springs and at the same time i bought a different grille  :evil:

Kamei Front Grille
Lowerd 35mm 



And then i bought a Kamei grille badge
