Title: VW Golf MK5 - Candy White & Non GTI ;)
Post by: A9XSJ on August 16, 2010, 06:50:26 pm

Well this cropped up local 1 Owner went to see it rest was history.

You think I'm entitled to some SCENE points as not to many Non GTI's actually come in white dare I say Rareish LOL

Previous owner specified the colour & also added the Winter Pack so comes with Heated Seats, Mirrors, Light Skooshers ETC

Not had a chance to do anything to it bar Clay Bar & Zymol It. (Need To Sell Old Porka's 1st)

Very nice,  If it was mine i'd change the front end to a GT one  :happy2:
And get 18" Monza's  :happy2:
And colour code the rear valance leaving the exhaust cut out bit black  :happy2:
I'd also get rid of the black plastic trim on the doors and bumpers  :happy2:

Looks nice mate,
Though as said above, a bit of colour coding would not go amiss with it.
If you do decide to colour code the rear bumper I would recommend spending the £45 at VW and get a GTI one, so that you can just get the top part painted, as it looks overkill when it is all done.
What are your plans with it?
