i was really looking for a set of ed 30 alloys but couldnt find any in reasonable condition. next has to be lowering but no sure if i should go for springs or save up for coilovers! :confused:

the 17s had to go look pretty poor on the gti they look lost  :signLOL:

Thanks for the comments guys  :happy2:

D.I.Y

1. I made up the number plate using a smaller font but also keeping it standard lettering

2. I masked off 1" around the letters and numbers then cut down to size

3. I sanded the edges of the number plate to make them smooth and used a grinding stone to round off the edges

4. I took off the lower grill

5. Upto yourself what u want to use to stick it on i used double sided tape but cleaned the honeycomb with thinners to remove any silcone or wax

6. Put the grill back on and away you go just give it a little time to settle then test it and make sure its not going to fall off  :signLOL:


You could save yourself the hastle of making the reg up n just buy one precut just measure the size you require but some places want a fortune to make a smaller regHope this helps.

Hi guys been quite some time the last time i updated this. Had a decent day on saturday so i decided a wax was in order.

In the past few months i have refurbed the CH's to matte black with a silver lip (didnt fancy paying £40 for each rim protector lol), put on a shark fin ariel, had a parrot kit fitted and open front grills.
