tdwindustries Posted May 24, 2005 Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 Loving the wheels big time - will look nice lowered style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />Can we see your interior? !?!? (UK spec is different) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafael Posted May 24, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 I will take some pics of the interior the next days.The only thing that is changed in the interior are the head restraints(?)...The original ones have that big hole in the middle, which Lupos have sinceyear 2000. I changed them against the "older" ones with no hole.The seats look more sportive now, I will show you...Can someone p-shop a nice signature out of these pics?

tdwindustries Posted May 24, 2005 Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 Ok great - you have ESP and a glovebox too! (We dont get the option of these) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy Posted May 24, 2005 Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 You're the only person I know who would think ESP was a good thing style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafael Posted May 24, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 ESP is a good thing, I think too... But if you want to drive sportive you have toswitch it off... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyW Posted May 24, 2005 Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 Looks great, welcome to the forum. Interested to see the head restraints, hate the standard ones, they were designed by someone with a fetish for pain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris260 Posted May 24, 2005 Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 Hi Rafael, welcome to Club Lupo. The D.Z.'s look fanstastic, the ET looks perfect for them to sit right in the gti arches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafael Posted May 24, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 Thanks Andy and Chris!Interested to see the head restraints, hate the standard ones, they were designed by someone with a fetish for pain.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Yeah, I agree with that...

Loopy Lupo Posted May 24, 2005 Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 awesome rims matey - how much did they cost - if you don't mind me asking? car will look cool when lowered! style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shades:" border="0" alt="shades.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramirez Posted May 24, 2005 Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 Sweet car, as above really- lower it! I always wanted DZs but ive never had a car I could fit them to! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafael Posted May 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2005 @ Loopy Lupo:rims: 1096,- euroestyres: 406,- euroestotal: 1502,- euroesI think they're worth it. And nobody in a circle of 70km has them, too...@ adam:...I wantend them since three years, but they wouldnt fit on my blue Lupo16V,so I had to wait until I get the chance to buy a GTI.The DZ's fit perfect to it, especially the ETs. I will never need distance plates...@ all:It will be lowered soon. I will order the springs tomorrow.So, its only a question of days, til my GTI will look a bit better...

zippy Posted May 27, 2005 Report Share Posted May 27, 2005 Hey, I like the new headrests - makes the seats look more like the old RS Turbo Recaros!Did you get them from another car in the VAG range? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafael Posted May 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2005 (edited) They actually are from a '98 Lupo. The Lupos from '98 to '00 had them, in the middle of '00VW decided to put the new (they say safer) rests into the Lupo.I saw a red Lupo with black interior at a "scrap iron place".The red Lupos have the red seam(?) on the rests, so they matchperfect with the GTI's interior...They didnt cost anything because I swapped them ;-) Edited May 27, 2005 by Rafael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
