Hi

Just bought myself a mk5 golf GT TDI
Has been mapped by previous owner to 190BHP
Is currently on AP coilovers and Genuine R32 alloys
Have just got myself some 19" Bentleys to go on it too (5 spokes not splits :( )

Am hoping to put a jetta or Gti front end on it too at some point then just enjoy it
Am a fan of the 60mpg average I've had so far

Any tips on where to get new bits/ GTi front end/ Jetta Front

Ollie

Hi from what I've seen on this forum therse allways
Lots of things coming up for sale
It's a really good way of emptying your
bank balance but good just keep looking
On the parts for sale section. :smiley:

OllieL:
Yeah you're rite

Since I posted that I've had a Jetta Front bumper of a local member with a front grill (which has now been de-plated and painted body coloured)

Need to 'joey' my headlights now to make the front end more tough for when I fit the front end next week.

Also picked up some Bentleys so will trial fit a couple of them before they go off to be powdercoated (From Black to Silver)

Also picking up a RCD 310 tomorrow, so if anyone has any tips of where I can get an updated canbus then that would also be great.

My biggest problem is lows!

I've got the helpers out of the rear and i'm all the way down at the front, but still can't get the thing low enough

Are there any top mount raisers etc I can get for a mk5?

The slippery slope seems to have started already... :signLOL:

Welcome & enjoy!

Was going to start a readers ride with pics so will do that and link to here when i take some next week

Ha I've been on that slippery slope for a while
Had a few modded Vw's

My Corrado Toy (Having an engine conversion)


Old Raddo Daily (Gone)


Caddy Pickup (Beater)


Mk1 Golf (Sold to buy the Mk5 Daily)


So I think the MK5 was never going to stay standard for long

Someone smashed my wingmirror today!!!
Need a new LA7T Grey wingmirror cover from somewhere
Any Ideas?
