        The Mk3 is looking great I actually prefer sans arches - definitely looks more cleaner!

            Yes, that ERROR phase has seemed to be getting the better of me recently

            I love the guards, but on my car it's black with white so it's an awesome contrast. I agree they make the car look TUFFer with them on, but you could definitely pull off the look without them. Good luck with your decision, you'll need it

                Do you remember if the interior was redone using stock pieces?

                    VR6 DOG got it redone professionally a year or so before selling the car. Set him back a few grand from memory.

                      Sweet ride mate never seen that shade of leather before - black background headlights will look fine

                      I have RN's too but in 16' and my rear arches are rolled so they are sweet with a full tank of gas etc They are stamped ET35 are yours the same?
                      As for taking the arch covers off I see you have the rub marks on the paint are they deep? Pita!

                          Nice GTI bsting. Is that a VR? They look good in 16's . Yea they are stamped ET35. With the gaurds removed it has left me with rub marks in the paint. I do polish with autoglym etc, which has removed a little but its alot deeper than I originally thought.

                          Cheers for the comments and the opinions guys, i appreciated it.

                            Thanks mate, Nah not the VR its the 2L 16v - even though our wheels come off subarus i havent seen another set here yet

                            Me LR arch - the archrub has sadly cut though the clearcoat so it will be needing a sand back yours might need the same job as mine will, wax can only go so far...ignore the dent your bumper vents look cool and really suit a black car

                              Cool. 2L 16v. Would be nice

                              yea, it has cut through the clear coat. Ive done all I can do myself. It has cleaned it up a little but obviously still shows... looks just like yours in that pic.

                                I think The dog was perfect the way she was

                                Yellow trim was done by original owner in 1999 at great expense. It is a superb finish, the back seats have not been used.
