Hi guys i've been hanging around here for a while but never made a post. I have a 1.9tdi with gti interior, side skirts and front and rear bumper.
Here's a pic when i bought it:

It wasn't long before i started putting my mark on the car and dropped it on coilovers:

I have always wanted a set of Mercedes Alphards and one of my mates decided to sell his so i just had to have them in the desired sizes of 8.5j front 9.5 rears :D

I disliked the tints so i got them removed, dropped the suspension some more and fitted a de-badged smooth front grill. I then took it to it's 1st show at fueled society:

My rear badge suffered badly for white worm as well so I took the badge to bits sanded it down, colour coded and then fitted a rear badge emblem from a Mk4 golf :happy2:

I have been quiet for a while but i have fitted some new wheels this weekend while i polish the alphards over the winter months. They are Azev A's in the very rare fitment of 18" 5x112 8.5j wide that i couldn't resist buying. They was a mess when i got them but i have sprayed them my self and love them :love:

I thought it was about time i revived my thread. So here is some recent pictures of what i've been up to with the golf. I am now running a full air lift manual set up for my suspension. I am still needing a chassis notch but i am over the moon with how the car now sits. Also fitted an ed30 splitter and a few carbon bits :smiley:
