Nice car mate you should slowly build into a gti. My cousins half way from turning his 1.3 8valve into a gti. Not a hard job to do.

Hey this is the stylingkit that goes on mu gti this summer:) Looks realy nice. A brand new paintjob. The coluor is a exstream dark candy red. Looking forward to it:)

Enjoy!

hiya all im from Redcar, cleveland. this is my 2002 1.0 swift, im learning in at the moment so no serious mods but planning to keep it for a few years.got driving test booked on 22 may , soon after that il be getting tints alround , gti side skirts,14' or 15' alloys , also got now plain black sun strip, free flow filter...

Here's a couple of pics of mine that i took today... Currently renovating her to get her back on the road within the next couple of weeks. In the process of refurbing my alloys / tidying up the bodywork a little, and stripping the interior.



As you can see I've not done the rear wheel yet lol





Decided to paint the bonnet badge in gunmetal grey, was going to leave it off but whatever it was held on with before had reacted badly with the paint, so i sprayed it and stuck it back on. As you can also see, i need a new bonnet as one night i forgot to fasten my bonnet pins and it flew up, smashing the windscreen!

Welcome to the forum very nice cars indeed i can relate to the badge being a pain someone stole mine off and its gone all rusty where it used to be P.S Redcar good luck on the test









Couple of pics of my Gti before it recieved all its injurys lol
