Pulled off the front bumper, grille, and headlights.
Followed this method so no point in me writing one, exept i did almost break the temperature sensor attached to the front bumper because i completely forgot about it
MVD - Montreal Vdubbing :: View topic - Mk4 Golf/Jetta Front Bumper Removal (grill and lights too)
Dropped in my 4mo headlights (with fog) and with a slight joey mod, and plastic lens refurb.
All the work is a bit ghetto looking, but i can live with that... for now..
New US spec r/s/r/s taillights, chopped to enable fog lights
Also removed my single lower front fog finally.
New stubby aerial, bit hard to see in these photos






The CC got kicked out to make some space...

I love progress photos!!!!!!!!

New tails look the shiz, it makes it look like a later model now.

Headlights turned out great man, looked awesome on a black car!

Thanks mate.
Think i made the right choice on the headlights and tails.
full joey would have meant to much black, there enough to tie them into the body now.
and the tails match the front, my other option was full straight red, but i think the r/s/r/s blends it to the body a little more.
Now for the grille, rear badge and number plates!
oh and being able to see at night now is also an advantage, i thought i was just getting use to the CC headlights, but it was really my old ones were super bad. Still not amazing, but HEAPS better then when they were fogged over

That poke in the rear shot is verging on outrageous! (In a good way ...)

haha thanks, theres not much poke. the wheels still tuck when i load the car up

New OEM end links in, sway bar forced onto the lose/street setting
Found out the rattle in my exhaust, inside of the cat is stuffed, so thinking i might just get a straight through section as it'll be cheaper then a new one im guessing I never wanted to bother with trying to make this car fast, but might look into seeing if a straight section and more free flowing air in take with be worth while

Have only just seen this thread now. Looks dope on the RS brother! Are you still going to refurb them? The lips would come up super bling if you just stripped the clear off them and polished them up, wouldn't need to disassemble! Keep up the choice work.
