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

[kapowww]

I put a big Ralliart sticker across the top of my windscreen and changed my 4motion badge to a "GTR" one.

Well not really.. Actually I tried to adjust my aftermarket headlights (they came with the car) but can't figure out how to, or even how to remove them without taking off the flippin bumper!

Adjustment should be 2 holes from on top.
Unfortunately you do need to remove the bumper to remove the headlights... To remove the bumper, there 6 screws in the mudgaurds (3 on each side), 5 bolts under the grille, 2 bolts at the front edge of the quater panel (1 on each side) and 2 bolts in the lower vents (1 in each outside vent)
Don't forget to disconnect the temp sensor in the front left lower vent.

Recieved and installed my new side indicators / chrome bulbs / chrome surrounds...

Old


New


Chrome Surrounds


Matches nicely with the chrome handles... (Still needs more chrome though...)

I recon it would look good on a red bora dark tints lowered with a PHAT exhaust.

[gringo_54_oval]

Im getting a little bored with my bora its lowered i customised the wheels that came on it did the bowser bonnet to it.

I like to do the different thing to my cars so im here looking at bora pics and there isnt anyone thats done a matt finish.

So what do you guys recon should i do the matt finish to my 4mo its blue metalic.

just a thought for now...

[governor22]

gonna order a pair of those tail lights. but can't figure out how to remove the originals / can't find any videos. anyone know how to remove the tai light covers ?

dont go matte. its horrible to maintain and looks very bunky. A much better option is satin black. its like a nice version of matte black. you wont regret it.

[Cookie28]

I'd do a satin white, would look awesome imo, especially with the blue wheels
