Thanks for all your kind words guys. It was good to do an ep on the Golfs after 19 episodes on imports.

Can someone explain what the story with VWVortex is? I posted it up there and it sounds like they hate it.

Though in the past I've seen their posts on 'Amazing Looking Golfs' and when I saw the pictures I was shocked. Gold Tartan paint jobs with pink wheels and exhaust pipes that light up with love hearts etc. And they love it... Strange.

I think it looks good. Some people seem to think VW's are some kind of holy grail and must only be fitted with BBS wheels and coilovers... whatever

well like i did say a few posts back, good that your modding a mk4.
But again they are very much like using OEM + type style gear not aftermarket Bling.

Hence you got flack for the headlights and tail lights.
You can actually get mk5 look headlights for the golf mk4.

But again each to their own. Could also be the car has not been lowered even 35mm so it's sky high with RS4 wheels that i personally dont think suits the shape of the mk4. However in saying that i have seen only one mk4 golf where they did indeed manage to pull the new school RS4 reps off.

But them slacking you on the vid, that is simply bogus. That was done well.
Good editing informative and related back to previous mods.

All i'm saying is their is no way i personally would be caught even dead driving the car. But as long as you like it, it does not really matter what others think.

I did enjoy the vid otherwise.

I was just reading that thread over on the 'Tex. Don't worry mate, they are all haters over there. There are some really good cars there, but most of them just do the same thing over and over and over which seems pretty boring to me.

From the other videos I have seen before, you guys do a really great job. What is your background in the area of filming and editing?

I can't see the video as my youtube seems to not load after 1:28, but I'm sure you can't go wrong with RS4 reps.

Whatever makes the wife happy will make you happy mate.

Any photos of the car after it was all completed? Or even a before and after set?

No idea how the vortex people didn't like it, it's not like you stuck a carbon fiber drift spoiler on it or anything.
