Dan's Golf GTI Work

[DangerDan]

Sorry about no updates, been very busy.

So got the small bumpers and they are being primed and resprayed as I speak so they look nice and slick.

Also managed to get the front valance and picking it up in a few weeks.

Also the twin light grill, small one piece lip spoiler, and crisp new lights and indicators are on the way.

Still contemplating the g60's but will get more of an idea once the whole kit is on.

Also when i had the big bumpers, i bought the small fog lights but since im ripping them off, I was thinking i could somehow retro fit the fogs to the valance.

Thinking of just welding up a bracket or something to hold it in place and making a hole in the valances plastic mold trim. I reckon it will look unique and different if I can pull it off. Otherwise I'll just get some big spotties and mount them from the bumper.

Also hopefully going down/up bells line road with some mates (Hillman Hunter and hopefully a 66 Mustang (Carby problems) and maybe other) so look to spread the legs a bit. I sure the Hillman will keep up, COUGH, COUGH

Anybody have mk1/mk2 indicator lights for a small bumper mk2, want to see if I can get it here before going international. Sorry no pics, but car is almost there, received the twin lights grill and front valance spoiler today, just waiting to put the new bumpers on when I get the valance, hopefully soon.

Do i need to swap the bumper bar mounts from the big bumper to small one to fit on my car?

Bar mounts are different for the early and late bumpers, you need the ones for the small bumpers.

Indicators are the same as Mk1. I have several sets here. Including clear ones if you prefer.

[DangerDan]

So if I've got the mount bars on the small bumpers, I should be right?

Here's some pic of a cruise I went on through the national park and up around bundeena. Still haven't done the bumper conversion (still organising the front panel from orange).












Dont worry, I left the Hillman for dust (he seemed to think he could take corners or something quicker then me). He actually said it was hard to kepp up.

That looks boss as, never liked big bumpers or the twin head lights on Mk2's.

doesn't look right does it

Yeh, its also just because i want to try something different. As soon as TAFE ends on the 26th NOV, ill being taking that weekend off to drive up to orange and get the front valance. Some courier company wanted $250 to get it down here. A tank of petrol is cheaper.

Still tossing up between two or four as I've got both, people keep telling me why i would want to remove them, but i like two light grills. I guess i try both out when i get the new bumpers i have on there with the rest.
