    man this thing is super cool! love the look you've gone for, def dope. love seeing the ITB's through the grill. cool as.

    also what's going on with the wheels? seems as if they're missing bolts..?? [like the lips bolts..]

    needs a small LS duckbill though imo.


    i like volkswagens

    Yeah its pretty much inspired from the classic euro on 15's look. Took me ages to collect all that chrome tho!

    The wheels are weird, 3 are the same and one has a 7mm more offset so i will have to correct that. They are one piece with holes. If I had 4 the same i would machine off the edge and fit bigger lips. probably the worst thing about a golf is the non existent affordable wheel options.

    I put clear polycarb over the left side of the grill to keep small birds out and reduce the positive air pressure.

    I agree, it badly needs a small chin spoiler. Also have to fit the lower chrome strips.

    Im glad you guys like it. After so long all you start to see is the imperfections!

    Those wheels were on the Green Mk1 with the yellow roof...

    Are you mates with a guy that has been building up an insane ae86 and has just decided to part it out?
