Vento or not?
« on: 18 July 2012, 22:30 »


Not sure what it is but I'm really not feeling the love at the minute.....can't decide if I should ditch the vento front and go down the golf route or if I should think about a colour change.....I really like white golfs with black textured strips but not arches and I'm loving the yellow chamber on the other thread in this section....also on a white golf ........what to do , what to do? I have a us spec front bumper on its way

I like the Vento front on yours bud, one of the few I do like. But up to you, and golf fronts are rarer nowadays days  :laugh:. Think you should spend the money on a 16v conversion tho, not a respray  :wink:

Conversion is 100% on the cards.....but i think itll take a while as im poor ATM although there is an engine on the bay im watching!I'm not gonna sell the vento front, I have a golf bonnet and grill so probably get some gti lights and have a play....think I just need to find the love again.

Good to hear. I'd say hold on n try and find a complete donor cor, coz then you'll have everything you need. I picked one up tonight for 300 notes. Might keep it tho  :lipsrsealed:
