Snoopy Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 Looks really smart! Loving the wheels, and you've done a good job with the mesh on the lower bumper.I'd take the sunstrip off though, if it was mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twisty b-road Posted August 12, 2004 Report Share Posted August 12, 2004 Agree with snoop on the strip but hey, what suspension you got? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigz™ Posted August 12, 2004 Report Share Posted August 12, 2004 Cool little car that mate, reminds me so much of mine when I first got them wheels, how good do they look before they get bashed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gargoil Posted August 12, 2004 Report Share Posted August 12, 2004 I usually don't like sunstrips at all but it's very suttle on that car and didn't actually notice it till I read snoops post!Needs a spoiler! :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loophole Posted August 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2004 I dunno which suspension, not fitted yet, but its some `Race-X` or something from a german site! Will be fitted as soon as cash permitts. Stiffened too!! Drops between `40-60mm`. I only paid about £200 for it so I dont expect much from it!!! I am after some decent deep dish wheels soon, and all my wheels have chunks taken out of them!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loophole Posted October 25, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 These are the most recent pics of my vehicle!!! Shame you cant see GTI Interior, but the gap between sideskirts and floor are 3/4 the length of the Average Small Nokia Phones!Any criticism would be appreciated, and NO washing the car is NOT a point to criticise! border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" />Thanks!

willh Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 Yeah lookin good mate.How low is it, and how big are those wheels?I was thinkin of getting skirts, but as you say they come up hella low once the car's been dropped - they'll eat `cats-eyes`!

Loophole Posted October 25, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 15" wheels only. Front was dropped by 60mm and rear 40mm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

one litre wonder ;) Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 nice one mate!! style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> btw what side skirts r they , they look minted!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdwindustries Posted October 25, 2004 Report Share Posted October 25, 2004 loving it, but for me, i dont like the RS turbo grille stuff - find some black honey comb and its a minterlove the side skirts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loophole Posted October 26, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2004 Suspension is some weird one I got off a german guy on eBay! But it's stiffened and dropped. The skirts are Reiger, or so I was told when I bought them!!! The front, side and rear is a reiger kit. And along with the Sebring centre exhaust kit, it works great!!! Would the GTI grille fit the 1.4?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigz™ Posted October 26, 2004 Report Share Posted October 26, 2004 I always wondered where my wheels went 8) heheLooking good mate, I love the grill, maybee lose the mesh inthe front bumper and fitting chrome rods into that to tie it all together?A GTi grill doesnt fit, but VW do a honeycone grill for the non GTi.Although Id stick with what you have, looks really good. Nice one mate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loophole Posted October 26, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2004 M3 chrome mirrors were a b1tch, but i was asking on another thread about how to take them off. I found the way to do it on a manual set, by breaking one of them!! So post for that will follow! All I need now is money to get the spoiler!!! Then, BADBOY!!! But not like Lupo on Chromes, I am afraid! Looks like an old beetle bonnet on a lupo!!! (No offence)!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Loop Posted February 11, 2005 Report Share Posted February 11, 2005 IMO:Mesch grille, mirrors and door handles in black. I think that the chrome doesn't suit your car as it is very black at the back and the chrome doesn't suit it (again, imo)apart from that it looks very good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyW Posted February 11, 2005 Report Share Posted February 11, 2005 What he said, I really like how black the whole car looks, and the chrome spoils it, makes it look fussy and over done, all imho.Everything else looks great, like the front spoiler, and the mesh, looks good. I'd personally drop the R badge, but it does look nice, maybe just lose the numbers, 23 looks a bit odd. If you could get 14, that would be better style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
