Today went well.

Collected these from work..







Then decided to spruce up my engine bay a bit.

From this..



Also decided to spray up my wing as the paint had peeled quite badly and it had marks left from the arch trims..





Inlet manifold and coolant bottle now black..









At this point I was nearly done, unfortunately it decided to pour it down with rain..





Done.

Got my early grill today brand new from Volkswagen.

Got a call first thing, a mate from work was dropping his angle grinder off to me.. :ph34r:

Got the car jacked up and started work on the rear arches.





Got the back down about an inch.. (Pictures really arnt showing just how flush I have got it sitting.)







Fitted Lamin-X film to headlights.



Grill off to be painted matt black.





Job done. :wub:

Very cool. The wheel color makes for some great contrast.

The white wheels look dope. Not sure how I feel about them being 17's though. None the less looks dope as a whole. Amazing how smoking the headlights made such a huge difference.

Haha cheers mate. Yeah I wasn't keen on the size at first but as i managed to get the car further and further down and stanced they seem to work well!

No pics of my interior.. Or lack of interior. Ripped the door cards off in the hope of shifting some final weight before Spring Festival on the 11th. Also Shortened my gearknob yesterday, needs to be shorter yet but the eventual plan is to fit a Mk5 GTi gearknob and gator.



Gave my engine some more paint as well, I have a small thing for blacked out bays.

thats how i want my bay to look. might have to swap the engine out first though haha
