***** NEW UPDATE ON PAGE 6!!! ******
ok so been a while and thought id update the OP so its current. lol
i bought the pug about 3 years ago now. when i bought it it was standard and a ex disabled car.
spec was :
1.4 16v sport 5 door tornado alloys sports interior elec windows a/c etc.
SPEC NOW:
REFLEX CAT BACK STAINLESS SYSTEM
RACELAND 4-2-1 MANIFOLD
POWERFLOW DECAT MID SECTION
GE quickshift
OEM GTI spoiler
cc'd door mirrors
cc'd bonnet vent
cc'd interior console
fly eye optics all round
custom tornado red engine detail
8000k HID's
MAK 14" alloys
BMC panel filter
de-badged
de-wipered
custom sound system
next: lower 40mm and new alloys!
straight away i knew i would mod it and wanted to try somethin daring. so went for a bit of red spraying.
so i sprayed the bonnet vents tornado red and added some Red RC lion decals. also changed the alloys to some MAK 14"s as they had better tyres on.
After a while i added some 8000k HID's as i had previously got used to driving audi S4's etc with them in and prefered HID's.
then i saw the error of my ways n took off the RC lions and evenutally the front and rear sun strips.
then came the proper modding.
so next job was engine bay plastics in tornado red ( red engine is somethin ive always done)
after this i debadged the rear and placed a nice white info sticker on the rear and front
then came the time for a new exhaust so got a custom reflex oval made by R-Tec
then i took the black stickers that come factory off the door pilliars
before
during
after
after that i got the dorr mirrors and interior console colour coded to iron met grey
after that i wanted the car to look a bit more agressive so went with the fly eye tints all round
then we started modding the golf
after a while i gave it a good clean and added a drift charm
then more performance in the form of a straight through center section and BMC panel filter
then added a GE quickshift which made the car feel alot better
and got a spoiler off CD-vRS
added a britishmods sticker to!
and thats how she is today.
next is to get a quiter exhaust as the missus will be having her soon and also lower 40mm and some new alloys.
comments welcome!!

Lion would look good in blue I reckon.
Red on grey is not the best tbh.

***** UPDATE*******
hey guys just a quick update.
took the RC lions off at the weekend. gave it a wash clay polish and wax looks great!!
206info stickers arrived and put on look really good.
dad is on holiday next week when he comes back he is spraying my mirrors gloss black for me
will post pics up once mirrors are done.
also think i have decided on colour scheme. going to get i lowered and spoiler splitter.
wheels im still going for hockenhiems but think white will look good. what you think?
also the other day i took off the cone induction kit. i havent got money atm but get as bonus end of month. so was thinking of replacing with a bmc panel filter. which will leave me around £50 for another mod this month..... any ideas on what to do to it for £50?

If you are going to lower 60mm you will need to uprate the shocks as well. The shortened springs will rape the standard shocks in a matter of months.
I also think that you should pull off the black stickers on the door pillars and CC the wing mirrors...

Looks nice, need to do something about the rear wiper bung though!
Nice RS Turbo! Series 2 are the best shape! What power is it running?
