This is going to be so dope. Only thing that makes me sad is the wheels. And it's begging for 16s or 17s. Also you should've raised/radiused the fenders instead of bringing them down, especially if you want to run 18s. Those are my only complaints. Def looking forward to this build!

Hehe, cant agree on everything! i want big radius tires, the main reson beeing extra grip! 900+ nm needs tire surface.. And im not so fond of the huge gap someone have from the arch to the tire.

due to my sukiness in english, ill add a before and after pic! hard to explane what i did on the rear fenders..

before i swaped wheel arch, but the rear fender has been lowerd



Golf mk 1 wheel arch, raised 5 cm and has a bigger radius!



The red arrow is pointing at the part of the fender that is extended 5 cm down! (black part)
