Mods:
Bilstein B14 Coilovers wound as low as they will go, rear adjusters removed

Projector headlights /w 6k HID's
Retrofit Cruise Control

Plans:

Get my 16" Monza's gloss black or get the polished face Golf GTi 17" (Can't decide yet)
Possible full respray to Gloss White

Any comments welcome

Yeah I was hoping it would be lower with the adjusters out too, i'm thinking some nice Golf GTi 17" will fill the arches a bit better

Cheers whitegti :)

Golfs won't fit different stud pattern a lad has some for sale for a polo in for sale section, also you won't be able to go lower as them coil overs are not designed for low more handling :wink:

Im on about the Golf Repicas 5x100 :)

Ahh that makes sense about the coilovers, would explain why there so expensive!

Cheers guys!

An yes Blaze, black ones are the fastest :lol:, but they also stay clean for 5 seconds :(

None yet mate, but I am hoping to get my wheel bolt covers painted similar to yoursthis weekend and if I can find the right size bung, do the wiper too :)

I believe halfrauds do a bung that will fit?

EDIT:: Found a handy guide on this site, gonna do it friday afternoon, ill keep you posted :D
