I like it too. Reminds me of vinyl but in reverse.

Carry the back stripe round and make sure you can see it meet at the bottom. Would look swell.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Sorry but that is the worst Golf I have ever seen, why on EARTH would you ruin such a car.

What is going on with the paint under the hood?

Height?

List list goes on.

Strip it all off to standard, and take a look around. Even Max Power would laugh at that.

Erm......no I reckon if you carried it all the way down to the bottom. Something like this:



Crap photoshop I know but something like that. Not sure how you'd make the bottom bit of the black stripe more prominent.

yeah ok mate. cant afford to lower the car yet im getting to it. the only reason ive done this is so that its different from the euro scene that you see too much in the vw community. im going for the JDM look and if you read what i said its not finished yet.

Benny, I think you should continue with the JDM look for sure, will be something different, always a good thing..

But, I have never seen a JDM style car with vinyl like that? Maybes black out the car a little more, stealth look, time attack rims, etc etc.. More like the concept R-GTI??

i know i based my car on this



but i wanted JDM with euro hints..
see this was my idea

GTI skirts.
deleted side bumps
smoothed rear and front bumpers
lip kit moulded onto the bumper
lower about 40mm or 50mm
tinted indicators
and i cant think of much else..

I think its sometimes very easy to judge a modified car when it is not completely finished. Such is the fact that some modified cars don't look their best until they are 100% finished, when all the mods begin to complement one another.
