welcome to the forum hun :smiley:

it all depends on what kind of style you wanna go for..have a looksee in the mk3 section and/or the cosmetic section for sum ideas of what sum people have previously done to their mk3s..
theres also a member called "golfpro" who has his mk3 lookin well smart.. :smiley: check out the dub rides section for pics..

Right,I've got it now and the first thing I need to do is sort out the camber,cos the two front wheels are slightly misaligned where suspensions been lowered,any ideas how much this'll cost-it's not a majorly serious do like-i just don't want me tyres wearing unevenly.

hello and welcome  :smiley:

there is also a thread in the mark 3 section "show me a pic of your mark 3" or something to the same effect, have a look in there and see if any of those cars give you some idea.

the first thing to do is get rid and get a mk2!lol only joking dude my advice would be to try and be different make it abit special.theres loads of usefull tips in the mk3 section.the chances are you need to get some camber adjustment bolts from vw that will help you get you alinement sorted so it stays there if it has after market shock/springs? :tongue: :tongue: good luck with ya boat!lol ;D
