Nice work fella :happy2:
You not selling now then?
-
my mate offered to do it if i painted his gate so im not losing out haha
I want to sell it but i dont :( if i do i want a gt 170..
-
I like it Benny.
-
yayy! should i carry the black stripes down the bumper and grille?
or take them off?
-
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.
-
before the lower grille?
-
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.
-
before the lower grille?
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.
-
benny, i think its great your doing something different. Etto, and if you like your car, then fair does.
but i do have to say....

I like the white down the front. Not sure about white grilles and white mirrors though. The white stripes down each side are okay too. I reckon if you plan it well, it could be a really good-looking car.
-
Did this also influence you Benny??

^^^^^^^ I think that's the nicest Veyron I've seen :happy2: Nice one Chris :wink:
-
that veyron is nice! i havent seen that one before :)
and that picture was just a guide.. im not painting my other grills white :)
-
Hmm, not so sure about the black and white theme, don't think it suits the Mk 5. Less is more. :happy2:
-
How about a GTi/GT bumper with the apron in gloss white and the rest black... Kind of like a reversed out CW GTi front end?
-
thats the exact look i was going for.. cant be arsed swapping and searching for a debadged GT front though
-
