Hi All, Thought I would get a thread started of my latest purchase.So last weekend I became a mk5 owner again :) Im forever changing cars but the longest car I've ever owned was my mk5 R32.So the moment I sat back behind the wheel of a mk5 I instantly felt back at home.
Couple of shots of my old R32

So the gti came with a few goodies, the previous owner kept the wheels, they were nice but just not a wheel I would go out and buy.So it's currently now on some rs6 wheels, I will be changing them for some speedline turini's in the summer.I will be doing plenty of changes to the car, first on the list is suspension.Currently in talks with ryan@midnight garage with regards to St coilovers,top mounts and autotech anti roll bars.Will be plenty of forge motorsport goodies going on soon.
Needs a real good clean and a few layers of Swissvax crystal rock going on it once I've had the front wings replaced.

Looks like the Rieger front lip splitter.

Cheers, It's fairly rare the splitter is a Rieger item only seen one other car running one.

Haven't seen them cause they smash off all the cars that they get fitted to! Massively low :P

Nice wheels on that r32 mate
-

:congrats: Nice car mate, turinis are wicked wheels. Look good on a mk5 aswell as seen a guy in heres gti rocking them at a lakeside meet

Very nice Golf :happy2:
-
both cars looking good, the front lip on the gti reminds me of the VR6 front lip on the mk3
-
What wheels are they on the r32?
-
They are 3sdm 0.01 8.5j front and 9.5j rears

That's probably the best front splitter I've come across. Anybody thoughts on where to get one?
-
Steel Grey & Deep Pearl Blue, 2 of the best colours on the MK5's IMO. :happy2:
