Title: My Mk5 Gti
Post by: Kevin37 on December 09, 2013, 08:58:09 pm
New here so decided to start a thread about my gti  :happy2:

Its standard atm apart from an autotech induction kit and no gti badge at the front. Apart from that its a fairly basic gti.

Just bought a new headunit for it as well. All I need is a new can bus module to run it so I dont drain the battery.

Its such a fun car compared to everything else I've owned!

The decent picture i have of it:

Finally got round to trying my old wheels on and took some photos. The car could do with a wash but it would have been dark. The wheels fit but I don't know if they are right for the car. They would need bigger tyres and the car could do with beig lower to make them fill the arches abit better as well but we shall see what happens.

Also I've got some rear boot lights on the way so I can attempt the skyline mod for the the lights. I saw a video on here and thought they looked cool so want to try it

Pics when I've collected it
