    hello watercooled!

    HI!

    I own a Dark blue (if someone knows the actual name for the paint colour and could tell me please) MK4 Golf. Standard 1.6L and beige interior.. I bought the car just over a year ago now, for a pretty cheap price due to a lack of aesthetic maintenance from the previous owner (king springs and ugly wheels don't make a car look good if you smash your interior and fail to care for your paint!)

    I've had a massive love for all vw's (specifically golf's) for years and owning my own was always something I was super keen on, so my old car being written off was a bit of a blessing in disguise. To say I'm a fan of the 'stanced' look on a golf is definitely an understatement.. Although i don't think I'd ever run my car that way, as i don't have the luxury of a daily and this being a show car!

    I've come and gone reading through some forum threads before for minor things i was doing to my car, but now i've decided to take the plunge to get some help or read more threads, so i can finally fix all its imperfections and start a bit of a build!

    So here it is, with her scratched wheels, peeled bonnet paint and some dirty interior.. I think I've got some work ahead of me!

    Welcome to vww! i know your pain man. bought my mk4 cheap because of how it was mistreated in it's past. i noticed your front valence is missing. i've got a spare (pretty rekt) one you could have if you wanted. until you found yourself a mint one of aftermarket.

    Yeah my aspirations to fix everything ASAP went downhill once the money ran dry aha.. Its been missing since day one, but that would be awesome.. I'm looking into replacing the whole front bumper due to rock damage etc, paint it at the same time i get my bonnet re-done.. If you know any around that would be great!
