my newest project

Recommended Posts

Just like to start off saying i really should have started this post alot sooner and then things would have been easyer.

 

Last year i joined the dub scene with a mk4 golf tdi thinking it be a rocket (WRONG). Quickly finding out why i got it for so cheap with it being the smallest of the tdi engines and as easy to tune as it is to teach a brick to float on water. Luckily for me another dub owner was soon gonna recieve a new family member and needed away with his nippy little sports car which i was more than happy to snatch off him.

As youll all agree standard headlights are terrible at night and living near the counrty side id like to be able to see at night so first thing i bought was some nice projector headlights and a bonnet bra cause i think with the square front end corrado's actually suit them very well.

I never really was a fan of badges as a kid and i like have random people telling me its pronounced sirocco not corrado

As we all know england is ether windy, raining, snowing or all the above. So thought id make car meetings a little easyer and stay dry a little longer thanks to some wind deflectors

I had this headunit in my mk4 golf and thought id try some bodging into place along with a volt meter........ i quickly scrapped that idea restored the dash and now have a nice flip out monitor

Always been a big fan of being different so thought why not make my interior match... all door cards and roof liner are now trimmed in this very unique design :)

One thing i didnt understand why have sunroof you couldnt see out of? so found myself a glass sunrood and got it shipped over from german and spray the fabric black to match the roof liner

Well i tried spraying the orignal sun visors with spray paint and they didnt work so ordered some black ones out of a mk1 golf and cut them short and got black clips off a porsche

No dub is complete without a random amount of stickers for kids to read on long trips

 

[ATTACH=CONFIG]50097[/ATTACH]

Always wanted a set of these so thought may aswell and put a bit of strech of the tyres to allow for that extra lowness

 

[ATTACH=CONFIG]50098[/ATTACH]

Just incase my car didnt draw enough attention i thought may aswell make a few pops and bangs on gear changes so straight through from front to back box

So thats all the pictures i have for now. she sits about an inch off the floor and after all the mods hits 130 at a rather alarming pace and feels like theres still alot more to go however the gearbox wont allow it :(

 

Future upgrades:

 

2.9 vr6 engine

US side markers

Tinted rear lights

Upgraded fog light cluster

A bit too scene for me.. but fair play for just going and doing what you like! At least you've made it your own :)

cheers people :) never did like following the norm so guess im onto a winner here lol

 

I never could understand the rat look idea, why spend money on a car and then spend more money on making it look old and mistreated

 

my wheels are ats cups, im wanting to get some 16" banded steels or something with a good bit of dish when i get the funds.
