I know its not a gti but i figured there would be some fun goodies on this site that may not be on others (such as a set of fk coilovers that i really want but dont have the post count to reply to!)

My jetta is pretty terrible tbh. However this does mean i can do stuff to it without feeling guilty that im ruining it or de valuing it. I will put up a project thread once i've had a good chance to go over it properly but the body work is pretty shoddy and it looks like someone tried to break into it at some point if the passenger door is anything to go by.

I'm also after some hella headlights and all the gear to install washer jets (already got a gti bumper coming)

Post by: V3trox on September 16, 2015, 09:20:48 pm: All the way down in dover. I couldnt be more south east. It makes buying cars and car parts really awkward as i end up basically buying everything from either london or sussex

U need u to come change it so i dont have to double tap my key to unlock the whole car. That is my least favourite thing about vag stuff!
