Title: Hi all!
Post by: M7AXB on March 10, 2009, 10:43:41 pm

Hey guys!

I've just become a proud owner of a black golf gti :happy2:!

Itching to start modding but, don't know where to start!

The car is about to go for a DSG service as its done 50k, should I worry that it was not done at 40k?

The alloys are also pretty corroded, 'white worm' I think its called. Does anyone know where I can get them refurbed(to the diamond cut finish) in the edinburgh area?

Finally...whats your opinion, refurb the alloys(Monza II's) to the diamond finish or Black?

Cheers!

Max

Welcome  :happy2:

by the sounds of it the DSG boxes are pretty tough the main thing is your getting it done now at least.

Black monzas are quality although im not sure if it would be 'too black' with yours being black also

pics of yours are a must btw  :P
