I bought a rear race cage over 10 years ago for my MK1 GTi, but it wouldn't fit bcause of the sunroof, the frame holding the sunroof was hanging down off of the roof and made the gap too low for the cage, so it was sold on.
I looked at your limk to the painters, and to be honest there isn't one car in their gallery that looks better after than it di before in their gallery. The price for the work they are doing sounds good value to me, but make sure they don't max power it and stick stripes and spoilers on it.
Pics of my TT now I've started modding. Now riding on 19" black and machine cut (faces) RS5 split spokes. Coilovers wound down as low as can go without rubbing on the front struts. 3.2 rear diffuser and front grill. New style wipers and arms. Dension ipod interface. New rear discsand a full service. Next on the list is 20mm wheel spacers on the rear and 10mm wheel spacers on the front, then tinted side and rear windows. http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d13/bulldogstaffy/DSCN63325164.jpg http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d13/bulldogstaffy/DSCN63355167-1.jpg
Personally I dont like them they look too small and as said need spacers, I'd change them but that me and it's your car, you can't be too sure or you wouldn't be too keen on peoples opinion. It's up to if you like them at the end of the day. Seams to be mixed feeling on here.
