hhmmmm I like what you've done with it, but I'm reli not feeling the green I'm afraid, dont think its suits the mk5 at all, but you cant please everyone all the time ay

cheers for the comment mate, i wasn't too keen on the green either as soon as i had bought it, on the drive home i was asking my dad how much a full respray in a different colour would cost But it's kind of grown on me and thought i would keep it green since i haven't seen hardly any green mk5's in the scene so thought it would be something different from the norm :p

Shhhhh... i haven't ran anyone over I couldn't stop laughing that day though

Love the progess, but I keep thinking this would look immense anthracite

Thanks Max :-D That is the colour I wanted to get it resprayed in aswell, the dark grey anthracite either that or the blue, but the grey was first choice but was decided against since all the little bits inside wouldn't get sprayed

Wheels, Wheels, Wheels...

Right I got my wheels on finally

only got some sneaky pics for the moment, but don't worry will take some better ones soon

I also picked up some new winter wheels, something different which i haven't seen on a polo

Thanks,

Haris

Here's a couple of half decent ones with the bonnet open

Suggestions would be welcome, thinking of dropping it a bit more at the back possibly and 10mm spacers for the front. Oh and btw the ground was uneven which made the back look like 4x4 ride height

Will get some better pics tommorrow and update you with them, since i'm not really happy with these

Other than saying i'm a retard for leaving the bonnet open, any other comments?

looking nice mate, and yes the back does need to come down!

Looks really good there mate!

Are they castellets or however you spell it?

Looking nice though, just get the back end down a bit more :-D

Yes mate, they are 15" Castellets from a Mk1 Golf Cab rivage

Cheers for the comments :-D

will definately be lowering the back this weekend

Haris: I liked the bumperstrip your car have. can you tell where to buy it thru Internet ?

Many Thanks, Benigno

What did you think to the ride just after coilovers were fitted? I got my philj ones on today and the ride is really bumpy!

yeah they are really bumpy! i try to avoid most potholes

lookin good, not keen on the front number plate tho chap :( ( were it is located, sorry)

yup i need to do something with it, to make the front end look cleaner. I need some suggestions really, for something practical ideally, since i don't want to be taking the plate out of the window to hold it up at petrol stations maybe a smaller font/smaller plate?
