dewipered and debadged looks much better IMO mate. As for rear lights have you thought about the 9n facelift rearlights? they might tie in nicely with your wheels i reckon

added these rear lights: got loads of stuff being fitted today hopefully. small update i suppose.

update:

:-D 1000x better.

not sure about skirts anymore its not very level but i don't wanna go too close to the ground as i have got speed bumps at work =/

New exhaust coming next week (Y) then I'm just gonna repair some paint work when i can :)

Looks nice bud, the front bumper looks too long imo. Good work though mate

aw this bumper on ebay the other day and wondered what it would look like.

I think the sides of the front bumper look sick (i.e. from the headlights down) but not too much of a fan of the middle grill, fell like it needs doemthing :/

eh-oh thats just my opinion - looks smart :)

Your car looks mint pal , did you notice a gain with the induction kit ?

  • 4 weeks later...

I like the Front bumper on your car, I think the colour suits it well! Not keen on tail lights tho...

Nice car

Keep updates coming

  • 7 months later...

i have the same front bumper on mine it will look loads better when its sprayed as yours does! good job mate :thumbsup:

Nice car! Love the lights, I'm considering getting a set myself. Is it exactly the same wiring conversion as with the 9n wiring to the 9n3 lights? So is there any wiring difference between the 9n3 gti and the standard 9n3 taillight wiring?

on some nicer wheels and a votex kit this would have looked awesome, looks way too max power dude =/

different strokes for different folks I guess, I'm not a fan either, too much going on at the front for me, but if you are gonna run that bumper, you need to get the badge cut-out smoothed out of the bonnet pronto!
