#1: MattyP's Gti Project *NOW SOLD* Author: MattyP, Location: PlymouthPosted: Fri Jul 30, 2010 1:12 pm ---- Bought my Gti back in Feb 08 and since then i've been trying to add new mods when I ever I can starting off with a simple debadging, rear wiper removed and clear rear fog light, this however soon changed for smoked items and then when I purchased a set of clear/red led rear lights from a fellow member off here I went back to red fog. This remained for a while until I decided I really wanted to keep the original idea of a moonstone and black theme, anyway, this is how my car stands at the mo
newest edition to the car, I know these aren't to everyone's taste but I like them
have a set of ultra black angel eye's yet to go on, looking to get a set of vortex alloy's sprayed anthracite, longlife exhaust system and some ICE
anyway, comments and recommendations welcome Last edited by MattyP on Thu Nov 01, 2012 1:53 pm; edited 36 times in total

#5: Re: Project Gti SP *UPDATE 22/08/10* Author: MattyP, Location: PlymouthPosted: Sun Aug 22, 2010 12:47 pm ---- *UPDATE*
Been thinking alot lately about whether to buy more stuff for my 138 or just save up and buy a 180 since they are going quite cheap these days even for low milage car's, it may take a while but I thought why spend loads of money on mods for the 138 when I really want a 180, the only things I will do with the 138 is sort out bits of the bodywork which need some tlc and make sure other areas are sorted so I can get as much as I can for it when I do sell it

the idea is that they prevent stones from chipping paint from the front portion of the bonnet..where theyre most likely to hit. Theyre becoming quite big on the modded scene but theyre a bit of a marmite mod.
And your car looks really tidy mate! Vortex's will look smart on it and I like the rear lights. But yeah, the bonnet bra doesnt look like it fits snugly and thats the only way they look any good IMO. Apart from that very tasty.

#11: Re: Project Gti SP *UPDATE 22/08/10* Author: Quarmbo, Location: Bristol & LeicesterPosted: Wed Aug 25, 2010 1:07 pm ---- Leave the bra on if you can get it to fit tightly

Big update for everyone who wants to read
For a few weeks now I have had my angels fitted and they do look awesome even if there not very bright at night 2 weeks ago I bought Sonni's orange vortex's and been stored in the garage so today I thought i'd fit them as they were and see what they look like, now there on I quite like it, it's something different though may not be to everyone's taste, they are however in need of a refurb which I will get done at a later date, enough chit chat, here's the pics for you all to admire over
Still have the following to do:
- buy and fit vmaxx coilover suspension
- order my janspeed gti 180 exhaust system
- spray and fit 180 rear bumper
- cc rubstrips
- esquiss badgeless grille
