Dylan8's Vento

This would be the look I'd be going for if I had a black vento - love this thing!

wow was a vento bank just opened up recently? a few popping up!!

nice blank canvas to start with!

I've always wanted a mk3, (something with electrics and aircon etc) but either wasnt game to take on the big mechanical side of things or they were to expensive to have as a spare car. But now i want to learn somethings and this car had all the colour schemes and problems i wanted to cover.

I'll be going something like this. BBS RS, Black with smoked bits, only bits of colour will be the lower half of the tails, fog lights, and any stickers that end up on it. Not sure about which way I want to go with the grille though. new vs old shape, badge-less or smoked badge.
So i think I have my suspension, wheels, seats, and exhaust sorted. Now to just get a VR6, 5 stud, and gear box and itll begin.

looks sick - i look forward to seeing how this turns out, I dig the vento fronts, kind of want one now!

I prefer the front grille of the later Ventos,and it MUST have the VW badge on it,so that everyone knows what it is

hmmm this is true. and i wont have to spend money filling in the rear vw holes and getting it painted.

the only grille worth running on a vento is the early 4 slat one

hmmm i dunno now. I like that one, but maybe its becuase it reminds me of the bora.
Are the ones pictured what you sell?
Whats the go with the ones that are one piece that continue right under the headlight? they just look odd to me...?
so is there 3 oem options?

hmmm think im sold on that grille Tim! might have to get one off you down the track if they are the ones you stock?

please excuse my noob mk3 wheel fitment question guys... Looking at offsets of what people on here are running, 17x8et20 all round could would be fairly close to the guards? Keeping in mind its going to be a vr6 so will end up being wide track (correct?) if that makes a whole heap of difference...

I'm doing a staggered setup on my car, 17x8 ET15 front and 17x9 ET20 rear. I shall post photos whenever the wheels get here and are all fitted up, to do my bit in helping you out :D
