G60 Steelies. 40mm drop... realign doors and bonnet so they fit perfectly, a proper valet and absolutely nothing else!

I'd leave it exactly as it is!

But, if you do change anything, i'll have the grille from you??

Drop it 80mm (or more if you like scrapage  :evil: )
Some nice 15'' deep dish wheels of the mim or BBS variety
and some hella half tint 16v lights at the back if it doesnt alread have them. Oh, and while your at the back, a shiny milltek or similar twin round exhaust.

Monza blue, good choice of colour  :wink:  just dont try finding any replacement panels in that colour!

p.s   plain german pressed plates too!!

I agree with the majority, lowered on refurbed standard rims and maybe half smoked rear lights.
Loving the small bumpered small window gti`s.
Looking forward to the day when i can afford another decent one. Keep breaking the ones i get:embarassed:.

One was too rusty and the other one came to me in so many bits it was untrue and so much was missing, ebay hey :laugh:.

Still, good to see yours and keep it as close to standard as poss with just performance mods i say.
