  • Whats your most favourite aesthetic accessory you have bought for your MkV?

    I've had my GTI since last Aug.. and now I want to add some red to the interior. One of the things I was smitten with in the MkVI was the red stitching on the steering wheel etc so maybe I could achieve this with some leather gearstick boots and a new handbrake.. I got thinking then.

    What is your fave accessory you have bought for your Golf or Polo? Pics highly valued

    I'll go first...ummm I've only bought the RNS 510 so far, improves the dash look but is also incredibly functional

              Noice upgrades guys! I've been thinking about my rims. I'll need tyres in a few months and my rims are scraped something awful. The PO must have ran into every curb they drove past in my little GTI! So to repair or just get new ones? hmmmmm those black 18s look great and on my candy white... hubba hubba

                Amanda,

                I recommend 18" BBS CH rims in Silver. They look like they were made specifically for the MkV GTI.

                    car's gotta have a good steering wheel. You look at it and feel it every minute you're driving.

                    Same reason i love good seats, they look sexy, and your bum's in contact with it 100% of the time you're in the car

                      You could always buy replicas for a 3rd of the price which look and work the same for about $890-1200.

                      Better than getting your current wheels repaired for $150 per wheel.

                        Maybe a little off topic, but the most useful accessory / modification I have done (apart from APR) is twin reversing lights. a bit of mucking around, but worth it.

                              Nah, private seller down south. And near new price as they've never been used.
