the mk2 saga continues

Firstly GTI suspension is lower than that as std. Those aren't GTI bumpers and the side kit looks dodge. Those wheels need scrapping!

it was on a hill though its not quite as high as that on the flat. and yes the wheels definitely need to go

haha, yeah they're pretty shocking hey. like actually "whoa did someone **** on your hubcaps?" kinda shocking.

speaking of shocks, i see a lot of the mk1 guys running king springs and shocks.. or something like that.. i definately want it to sit flatter, on better wheels too! =]

i really want more hp though!! it's fast, but like... not even commodore fast. i have all these exams this week. lucky it's getting a wheel alignment, otherwise i'd be driving all night!

Now I know what you mean by "those spider looking things". Mk2 steelies, widened, paint, go!

[jayjay]

what do you reckon my steering will be like though..? i dont have power steering.. and i'm not sure how 15x8s would fare...

there are these wheels on ebay that are 8.5... is this suicide?

[Mischa]

my vote goes for painting the disgusting ones matte black and spending any money on suspension mods.

Thank Gawd its registered

Now come past the shop one day and I`ll show you all the goodies I have for it and tell you everything thats wrong with it.

Great news James!!! Does this mean you don't need old rego papers anymore?? I've been digging through archives for the past week looking for them.
The car seems to ride a fair bit higher than when I had it. Looks like someone may have got to it between write off and appearing at the auction.
Enjoy the car mate.......I really miss it, it has great potential.
Cheers
Steve

bugger!! so does that mean someone raided my parts?! =[. still goes though

i really want coilovers now!! and steelies!! F*** uni!!

[86gti]

Nice work! good to see its going and rego'd!!!!
wheels do look a bit sus, but a bit of paint would do wonders!!
as Mischa said.....matblack would make em look alot better....

I might know of a GTI front bumper if your interested too...
see if I can find it, lol.

[jayjay]

well what i'm really looking to do.. over the next while is...
- flares
- bumpers
- wheels
- suspension

[evorobin]

DO NOT buy bumpers without speaking to me first. I've also got nice set of GTI steelies with new yokohama 539's for $450 delivered to you bud if you're serious

[Mischa]

shotgun your old shoddy bumpers
