What have you done to your mk4 (golf/bora) today?

+1 to colour coding the strips
Bumper looks awesome!

Cheers for the input on the rubstrips - might rethink my black/ silver approach - maybe I'll ditch them altogether. Will photoshop a few options to see what works best.

Re. Side skirts - was thinking Votex if I can find them at a decent price.

Was after an r-line rear bar (unfortunately the OEM is no longer available), but bought Dubster's damaged R32 bar to mod for something different.

Cant do the black trims with shaved bumper, think colour coded will look ok though.
Mk4s look odd with shaved doors

I agree, Removing or matching the rub strips makes a huge difference.

I agree with the theory, and like the silver and black combo, but do that with any other parts but the rub strips.. The rub strips are a blight on the MK4 landscape!!
(Current Australian news joke there too)

Seriously though, please, please, consider painting them! Leaving them black is the exact opposite of what you've just done by installing that ultra smooth r32 bumper!!

If those rub strips didn't leave those hideous holes in our doors, most of us wouldn't have the rub strips at all I don't think..

Quick question guys, wanting to run the mk4 gti brake on my 1.6 after the conversion is it a case of just the carriers and calipers or the whole hub aswel?

Black and silver theme? Tint the windows, paint the strips and maybe black vinyl wrap the B pillar.

And get the OEM black euro lights.

Have vinyl wrap on order for B pillars - agree that the windows need to be darker (they are actually tinted, but it's beginning to peel so will be replaced) ...

All the strong opinions on the rub strips, (Kendog/ PeanutButterWolf/ Blake/ Dylan/ Back Door Shenanigans/ YellowDieselGolf), have changed my mind so I'll be colour coding them (mainly to get you guys off my back ) - it might take a while and I'll probably get them done at the same time as the rear bar/ side skirts/ other touch-ups.

Black Euro lights are an interesting thought - I'll try a photochop to get some idea of the effect.

Hi guys I got the wireless reverse camera and mirror installed the other day. Not bad for $70.

I'm pretty sure the caliper carriers where part of the hub on the 1.6 so you will need to swap hubs for the 1.8t brakes
