I like the blacked out look Trent. Looks understated. The mirrors look ace black matching the black plastic trim. Thats is one part of a stock car that lets it down not being colour coded IMO. And as you say when or if you get sick of it return back to stock. Was thinking of doing something similar but i think i'm gonna keep mine OEM and go for a different look. :rolleyes:
hmm...interesting trent. but i would leave the front r32 badge and vw badge chrome.
Won't match the rear badges then. Plus the blackness... :bluesbro:Quote:

Put the factory wheel nuts and locks back in too. The ones on the car were extra long ones left over from some previous alloys.
Haven't played with MK4 suspension before, pretty neat the way it all goes together.
Before and after (hadn't been moved at this stage, it settled after driving)

Hi Pete,
Any pics of it with the bumber on? How well is it hidden?
Nothing handy but it's the same as this one that's in the for sale section.Quote:

Towed the MK1 out to a race meet in the pouring rain today. First time towing with the Bora.
It tows the trailer no problems, that v6 is an impressive thing.
Fuel consumption was as you'd expect, pretty woeful, not helped by having to load the golf backwards to get the ball weight right.
The 4motion got me back up my wet driveway no problems too. A mazda ute I used last time nearly didn't make it.

Trailer and ball weight is just within the towing capacity of the Bora although I think I might make a lighter trailer in the future.
