she had a good clean today and thought i shouid take some pics... comments welcome

Looks great!

Like it. 

You planning to take it down a little in future?  Also (and some may find this strange), but I reckon a good set of mudflaps will really suit it.  They seem to make the car look lower and slightly wider for not much spend...

yeh i am mate, just need to change insurance compaines first and stuff.  see i did have mudflaps on but they rubbed everywhere - damn country living lol (cant wait to see how it rubs when i lower it)..instead i thought 10/15 mm spacers on the back and maybe 5ish on the front?? what do you think? it should give it a nice wide look

Chris

some other people must have some comments.. come on i love getting feed back

Looking really good! I like how you've had the lower bumper vents colour coded

What plans have you got for it then ??

cheers. when i had it done i thought it might of been too much blue but i think it turned out well in the end!

future plans are dropping it.. but my insurance are just working out a price and for some reason may only let me do it if i upgrade the brakes lol!  so part from lowering it nothing too majour.. well for now lol! o and finishing off the back brakes and maybe some bora vents

Chris

 i like it, poss a abit lower and id do the spacers to give it the wider stance! poss a sharan badge? really good example m8 and nice set of pics!

 So clean and very oem looks superb

 looks very clean!where did you get ur bump strips and handles painted?

craig

Yup lower and spacers are what im saving up for next.. did have £500 saved up for them.. but ended up spending that on a lads holiday lol!

i got my rubstrips painted at a bodyshop, wasnt too bad only £300 for a bonnent respray, dent in the wing taken out, back bumper respray and the rubstrips etc painted!

Cheers for hte comments guys

Chris

 bargain!my local bodyshop wanted 400 of me and i had to supply the smooth bump strips!so i dint bother!lol

i had a friend do it. he just put on a large amount of primer or something so they became smoth or something.  just try another, its worth it

 yeah i might do!but then again it might show up the rest of the bodywork!stone chips etc!lol.

Yea it could possibly be, beacuse i tried my mates civic type r one on and it too has a 1mm lip all the way around at the bottom. i'll get me one of them i think.

Oh and one other question have you also had the dredded gearbox failure on the golf yet??? They normally go around 60k, mine went, not a happy moment and quite expensive aswell £1600 for a new box and a clutch and labor charges! But i still love it too bits tho!!

Love the colour of your golf tho mate, just needs decking! Just looking at it reminds me of why i like rs6's sooooo much! sweet car mate!
