hey everyone, ive been looking around at a few forums and although i dont have a gti i think this one is best. I have recently bought a mk5 golf gt tdi 140.

as standard: 18 inch charlestones, full heated electric leather seats, ipod dock in glovebox, lux pack...folding mirrors etc.

heres the new toy

Ive done a few little things already including, silvatech indicators, osram silverstars, red calipers.

The plans are: lowered about 30 mm? maybe eibachs or h and r. gti rear valance colour coded, revo remap, the list goes on.

That does look very nice indeed Shaun. GT Sports on Charls' are trendy and smart  :happy2:

I prefer that combo to the new MK6 GTD and the wheels they put on that  :sick:

What suspension are you looking at - Eibach and H&R you mention, but presumably springs or looking at coilies?
