To Bolf Or Not to Bolf?
« on: 31 March 2008, 12:04 »
I have to get a new bonnett and front wing because mine are dented and I am 50/50 on whether to just bolf the wagon.

Opinons please?

if it took you this long to get your engine sorted imagine how long a Bolf conversion would take you!!  :grin: :grin:

I personally don't like the bolf look so would say no, also if you're going to bolf then, wont that make your R32 bumper redundant?

I can do a bolf front end conversion in a weekend, I would just get the bits and spray them whilst my current bits are on, I think I prefer my front end now but its just that its so common and yes it would mean I would have to sell my current bumper but its genuine so it would go in a flash on edition.

What bumper would you replace the R32 one with mate?

Never used to be keen on the Bora fronts on a Golf
But I reckon now on the right car it really can be pulled off well  :smiley:

so it would be a rola?

so if you were to put bora arches on to make it look like a bora, you would then put an R32 style bumper on the front, making it look like a golf again.  :huh:
