So here she is, plenty of potential as all she has so far is coilies and colour coded grill and spoiler.

I plan to keep my cosmetic mods simple, as thats the way i like them, and hopefully with advice and help from some of you, she'll be running even better than she is now. She did have the VR front splitter on, but it last less than 12 hours. How low can you go...right?

At only 72k on the clock, this is my VR....

I got fk coilies on now, snd it is a really nice ride. so much softer than the shocks and springs on my GTI, dont feel like im 'wounding her' so much lol. Coilies on my mk2 aswell. which is a real nice ride too.

Yeh i would definitly be up for the 'sump saver' if you wanna knock me one out. Eventually i'll get some 16's on but there is no harm in saving the poor scraped bugger regardless.

Yeh i hate red as a colour but really liking it now, so much that the re-spray is now being done in the original colour lol
