EddieFosts:
Hi folks,

Haven't had the chance to say hello and pop a thread up since making the purchase of my new GTI! Was initially looking for another R32 but ended up with a car that quite honestly was the complete and utter opposite of what I set out to buy...

Looks like a stunning example with some good mods.

Nice car mate..correct me if I'm wrong but the front splitter looks like a vortex one?

And the rear bumper looks like a Gti rear but colour coded?

Correct on both counts. Although it's spelt Votex

Nice spec this. There's probably not much left to do. Considering the BYD and diff though... maybe a TTE420/480 is an option if you ever want a bit more boost!?

shoaybmakda:
@AJP damn auto correct! Lol
