looks very clean mate, you wouldn't by any chance happen to still have those 16v rears would you

Looking good like the rear numberplate

love it mate!!

sweet mate did you use a PC?

and what wax you sealed up the paint with?

very clean, love the interior, not mad on the rear tho?

Looks real nice and top detail, agree with the above though not keen on the rear!

Maybe if the mk5 handle was in the middle it would work alot better!

tbh, not liking the rear at all.

looks polished though :D

Looks very tidy mate, really like the way you've relocated the plate and that bigger VW badge is a cool original touch 8-):thumbsup:

Boot looks well cool with the mk5 golf badge/handle.

What colour is it? Looks proper dark brown.

Not sure about the recess in the boot, maybe if it was a shortened recess?

Well nice car anyway man.

Car looks good,

i like its rear :nod: was the handle alot of work?

John

Very clean and tidy mate .

I really like the interior ..

Looks top after a good wash! I like the rear lights, I think the badge looked slightly weird when I first looked at it, but I like it now.

dont like the rear sorry, but it certainly looks shiny :nod:

Thanks, interior needs a good clean though. Dont like the rear?

I do agree that it would look alot better in the middle, may get this done in the future. But i cant complain at the quality of the job my dads mate done for me, considering he only charged me 50quid :lol:

Thanks for comment about boot. It is actually Black Magic pearl, probably not the best picture quality.

Recess in the boot?

The handle wasnt alot of work really if you know what your doing, which my dads mate did.

It works through the ignition as its obviously off a newer car its electrical, where as the mk4 locking system works off vacuum

Thanks, i think the rear lights look alot better now. Sets the rear off nicely now.

I think the rear end is a grower, in some pics it looks good & in some it doesnt. Its 1 of them :lol:
