Greetings
I have been on this forum for a while and I think its time to showcase some of the mods which I have done to my car
This is my first car and I couldn't get anything bigger because of insurance prices so I had to settle down with this
Its done 55k and I have 1 year warranty on it
Anyway enough of me talking, let me begin...
My car from day uno

So the first thing I did was get my windows tinted

I then stared seeing many cars in my area that had been wrapped so I thought it was a really hot look so I decided to get it done as well by some guys called TWS west ealing

I changed the mouldings and door handles all to silver so its colour coordinated, SORRY but this is the only pic I have but you can see result in later pics....

I had a plate change because of some insurance reasons

I ALSO CHANGED MY REAR BADGE WITH ONE WHICH I GOT FROM BROOKESB ON THIS FORUM

I then began checking out some wheels, I began looking for 17s because 18s will kill my 1.4 lol. But now I want 18s :signLOL:

I was on a budget and ending up going with some audi rs4 reps which i got for a really good price. Now that I have more money I plan on getting some 3sdm's for my vehicle. I don't know why but they look really ugly on camera, physically they actually look decent

To match my roof and mirrors, I decided to spray my grill fully black

Then I managed to find some R32 outers on ebay which I picked up and fitted them asap
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2Fmelvin084%2FMobile_Uploads%2F20140222_1346110_zpslggiuiou.jpg&hash=d08c70960b38934a78d35c34cb482174258486ca)
NOW! I tried extremely hard to find some inners, sooooooo what I did was contact member G40will and ask him to tint some standard inner tail lights for a fee of course. I saw a post about him stating that he had done it to his own car and it looked pretty good so I decided to give it a go.

In my opinion they look legit! good job Will

And finally this is where is ends for now

Thanks Jack
No they aren’t tinted, there the gti ones which I was lucky enough to get with the car, but I have seen a member which has tinted his headlights to get them to look like mine and it looked pretty good, if you ask on the forum surely someone will help you
Im assuming you probably have the the chrome version which are these

I have the darker gti version

My sidelights (the last picture) I got from ebay but I can't remember the name
My headlights bulbs which I got from a local shop are these

Im back with a few new upgrades to my car
First thing is first
I unwrapped the roof+mirrors and went back to standard.
It was limiting my options in terms of colours because I always had to put dark things or else it wouldn't go too well

I was really hesitating on going for the exhaust or not. In the end I decided to go for the exhaust option seen as I'm planning on keeping this car for a while so i can build up my no claims and get something better

I'm sure you also fully aware that you can't use this car for more than 6 monts in a year on UK roads ? Or if you have permanent job in UK and you are resident of UK you have to get UK insurance, TAX and MOT straight away ...

If you'd of said to me "Mercadies wheels on a Golf?" and I'd of dismissed it, but these work so well! Car looks amazing, go get a remap to get some extra power! :pomppomp:
