  • A few pictures of how it looks now

  • Thought I'd update this a year after my last post.   A few things have changed, mainly it's now rolling on 16x7 bbs rx211 and sporting a hella grille

  • Thanks 😃 I had 25mm rear spacers with the ra's, I've gone back to 20mm with the speedlines

That sits spon on, the perfect look for a mk3 I think.

That looks perfect! Wheels look really nice and it's a really nice colour.

Now take it to loads of shows and show people less is more! :tongue:

The interior has been upgraded from fox to genesis which I picked up for £30 and is in mint condition, just need some cloth door cards and a wheel. Also fitted a radio blank and hidden the head unit in the glove box.

Thats well nice mate! Cant wait till i get mine soon. Love the RA's and stance is amazing! do u get any rubbing on the 15's? I've got a set of 14" RA's going on mine with a 60/40 TA Technics kit, just hoping they dont rub too much :-)

Thanks mate. I've rolled all the arches but at 60/40 you'll be fine unless you put massive tyres on

Those speedlines are beautiful! The car sits very well.

Did you have spacers on the rear when you were running the RA's?

Cheers,

Scott.
