    Grill looks like 80's Toyota, not Golf at all.

    I thought it looked like a Mk2 Escort lol.

    I like it though, I call it a "deluxe grille"

    Oh and another oddity about the rusty $20 diesel, if any diesel nuts are reading. The pump on it has two springs, the normal one and one which gives more resistance at more throttle input. I've never seen this on a Mk1 pump before and am quite curious if anyone knows about it.

    Not much has changed, took the bumpers off and moved the foglights. Also cut most of the front of the airbox off for more intake sound, but it was way too loud so I ended up changing it back. I also got a beige guard to replace the super rusty drivers side one







    I then decided I wanted to sell it, like an idiot. So to make it look less dingy I put the bumpers back on, and fell in love with it all over again. So I've decided not to sell it again haha.

    I also got a single postal light for cheap, I figured with just the one I can use it as a rear fog







    Also wish it was all one colur.....one day I guess.

    Looking so sick with no bumpers and the foggies mounted straight onto the front panel.

    This car suits the rat look so well! No need to paint imo
