Llyr, I've just had a flood of emails about this thread, there's me getting excited thinking you've done something new..... but no

GET IT LOWERED! and keep the old bumpers, they're retro

 

[LMJ]

Nah mate, going for facelift. And I know, I do apologise... some people eh ...

Next month or so will see some decent changes though!

 

[gtikezz]

your doing a great job on it m8 keep it up

i started out with the 1.4 then onto a 1.8 16v and now this is my baby

 

[LMJ]

Cheers! Facelift bumpers, the fogs etc, new de-badged grill, Cupra backbox and coilies, are all on the cards within the next 2 months ... will change a lot then, for the better!

Not a patch on yours though ha.

I'm actually contemplating getting the alloys done in anthractie. Simply because white - is suuch a pain to keep clean.

 

[gtikezz]

black is a total pain in the ass too lol

Loving what you have done with the interior, looks mint. Would love to have my interior white to but I'd just feel as if I was copying you haha. Might do it on the sly, and never post any pictures

 

[LMJ]

Ha nah go for it mate! Be careful with what primer you use. Mine tended to bubble at times on some of the surfaces! Let me know how you get on ... PM me if you have any difficulty in removing any parts of the interior!

i did that to my 1.4 aswell, painted center console tornado red. it was a mess first time as it all flaked off. then i sanded it down till it was ultra smooth and resprayed it and was perfect. its all in the wrist action

 

[LMJ]

Yeah maate ha! , you said it! And yeah - be sure to sand down the "sheen" off it elcristoff or it might bubble and flake with the primer.

 

[vngtx]

i bought the paint from japseye and blamed them for a dodgy can so i got another one free

 

[LMJ]

Getting there... Needs a bit of tidying up, arch liners to bring it in and tidy it up a bit. It's not perfect, need to cut away some of the metal from behind... Oh and if I ought to be really fussy - it's going in for a re-spray; the colour match isn't perfect... But hey - it's a damn sight better than before I quite like it! ;

Gave the rear end a little wash and took a quick piccie ;

Now onto the front, lowering, double exhaust, fogs, GTi (Golf Mk3) interior.

how low u going? that was my 1.4 ^ biggest waste of 1500 quid ive ever spent!

 

[LMJ]

Nice mate! ... What do you mean waste of 1500? On the GTi you mean?

I think I might be getting some Borbet Ts, maybe?... And go about 80 - 90mm maybe?... Getting it looking mint! That bumper's a rare one, it's not the phase 3 facelift one ... it's the 96 one. Notice the pattern on it?

 

[vngtx]

that bumper looks alot wider than the one i had...i spent 1500 quid modifying my 1.4. wheels, guages, body kit, brakes, respraying, audio, exhaust, dvd player. sold it for 550 without dvd player before crank gave up.

 

[LMJ]

My bumper was £4.99 auction on Fleabay... I'm not planning on spending huge amounts on it tbh. I'm nearly 20, and I'll be getting a GTi next year I'm sure, if funds allow it. Or a Polo 16v.
