Alex's GTI Project

[geralis32]

hey all just finished putting the badges and stickers on the car,
i have also replaced the bumpers back to the original ones

and i will get around to taking some of the engine bay next day or so

Car look's pretty cool dude.

Mega-stretched rear tyres aren't exactly my style as most of you may know, but it's very traditional.

I hope your going to refit the upper & lower GTI side moulds stripes too!


Oh. Thought I'd mention the rear badges are in the wrong position.

I know I'm picky & sometimes a bit of a perfectionist, but I' thought I'd speak up as your dealing with a GTI.

Some pics of my GTI for reference.

That looks amazing. Great work.
Looks like you've got a perfect garage right there too!

[Jarred]

Wow I'm super jealous!

looks great!

I'd only put slightly bigger lips on the front, but apart from that I reckon it looks top notch!

[geralis32]

hey thanks, i will move the badges this week sometime, i tried putting the bigger front lip on it, and was sitting on the ground, completely undrivable so gonna have to see about that

[pepperwhite]

I think he means bigger lip on the front wheels...ie some 2" lip like the rears...

Yes I did mean lips on the wheels, sorry if I wasn't clear. If it were my choice, I'd probably go for 1" lips on the front.
