What have you done to your mk4 (golf/bora) today?

5x100's?
really interested to see some pics!

I've got similar wheel specs 18x8 35+ and my front's sit pretty fat in the guards but rears are like stock

These are 17x7.5, so yours will sit a little wider...

Put it up for sale

Painted the calipers red for the extra 25kW and added the new south boost gauge in the drivers air vent. Nice matching oem backlighting which makes me happy

Washed it.
really needs a claybar asap (let alone a good polish and clean up)

Meaning to ask this for a while... What EXACTLY does a claybar do? Apologies for the ignorance..

it actually removes all the contaminants off the paint making it feel smooth as glass .. very good thing to do before you polish the car .. highly recommend it .. Mothers does a good kit 2x clay bars and lubricant spray for around $45

It's a good thing before you wax/seal a car - polishing actually removes paint.

pretty much as above, removes any contaiminates that your average wash wont remove.
after a wash does your paint still feel rough like its covered in grit? but you know its clean? could be worth trying it.
my car was so bad when I first did it, I thought the clear coat on the rear bumper was failing, was actually just a huge build up of rubbish. works really well in places where the air doesnt move and lets the dust/dirt sit and bake on (top of rear bumper, boot) then places that face up like the bonnet, roof etc.

Swapped over headlight bulbs to Philips xtremevision.... TBH I cant tell any difference besides less money in my wallet... ill stick to OEM after this little venture.
