this is raddo no4 and one of the more complete ive owned as no interior trim missing and still has a unopened first aid kit in place

quick spec

 

miltec manifold

scorpian 2 box system

weitec coilovers with hot tuning springs (as i broke one of the weitec springs after hitting a huge pothole in my old golf)

all red(ish) rears

de wipered rear

16" fox alloys

vibe/jbl/sony sounds

 

atm im in the process of sorting out some new wheels and my spare interior is being retrimmed as we speak

ive nearly finnished the frame to sit ourond the sub box and then the jbl amp will be relocated behind it to hide it with the vibe amp, then cd changer in place of the jbl amp

car sits about 15mm lower now the coilys have settled. centre of the splitter is roughly the height of a raddo key on its side

looks good - great colour that, especially combined with red tails.

 

for some reason your de-wipered rear really stands out - i think I am gonna have to do that mod!

D90's effortlessy cool.Played with the idea of them for mine but went with polished TT comps in the end. Stance will be so much better with spacers. :norty:

215/35/16s, dont have a problem now the arches have been rolled and its quite abit lower on the rear now. the tyre hits the body abit on big bumps but doesnt cause any damage due to hitting a smooth surface

 

Tyres are pretty cut though from when they were on before I rolled the arches
