How much to get a mk3 CL like this?

[AusScare]

Ok sounds alright. I want a liveable ride height, something I can get around town fine in. Also, would you recomend adding a bigger lip and wheel flares to this GL?

Euro lip always looks nice The flares are pretty easy to get. Personally I like em but a lot of people don't, each to their own

HEY!! I hit 1000 posts and didn't notice!! D'OH!!!

I'd find the OEM plastic side skirts first, then add on the bigger lip and flares! I've added VR6 flares to mine before side skirts and it just looked silly

ahk fair point.

Also, anyone know of a Mk3 with RS4 rims on it? I'm having trouble visualising these. http://www.tempetyres.com.au/product...t=&part_no=725

I think you'll need to be 5x100 for any of those tempe rims to fit, so you might need to get a VR6, or do what Ray has done. Or are there adapters for 4x100->5x100?

Any pics of your GL?

Also, what tyre size goes on 15x8s? 225/45?

Not the same model and they're 16x7 ET38 but the same manufacturer... Its not my car anymore so I can whore it out lol...

ohhh so GL is 4x100 and vr6 is 5x100? hmm that messes things up a bit, unless tempe have 4x100 for a GL?

I'll give them a call and ask.

[rayray086]

They should have those wheels in 4x100, seeing as they're replicas. There was one grey VR6 (username Stiffler's Mum) that had them... I don't have pics of it though.

I also found a pic of those 8 spoke audi rims on a mk3

Looks pretty good imo..

Big lip on that golf, but no arch flares..

[rayray086]

Yep, that's the car I was referring to!

17's arent my choice for a mk3 but best of luck, hope they look good.
