my new mk1 golf project

[GOLFBALLS]

Ok i'm DEFINATELY white-walling my mk1 now. Standard wheels look great.
Are they the stick-on white walls?
And what mm drop is it from stock?
Cheers,
Wade

bumper looks good black i reckon lawny. heaps better. what paint did ya use?

just a bumper and trim spray can from autobarn. went on really well, better than i thought it would.

Looks very cool mate! Very retro. I would also get some new number plates in black and white.

Or colour match the letters and numbers to the paint!

Looking really sweet. Seems like there's getting to be a few low MK1s around Melbourne. None here, though.

Wow that looks really nice, must definitely be a real head turner!

Any rust? Out of curiosity of course...

no real visible rust, there seems to be a small bubble of rust coming through under the rear window but that is about it. been garaged all of its life.

I had to use a blockbuster to remove my tow bar tongue!

Mad car - loving it like others. You should be proud of your choices. You have racks?

no i cant seem to find any racks. if anyone has some please let me know.

[mikinoz]

What theme? Chrome, timber slats?? You can get some made custom for not too much if you know what you want as well.
