:cry: MK4 Golf GTI - Modified
Car is now for sale as I've not driven it in a while because of baby and buying the Audi SQ5 (that I've now started modding!)
Selling my precious little Golf cos I've traded up to an Audi SQ5 and I hardly ever drive it.
Mods:
Speedtech Metal Boser Hood Extension - welded and professionally painted in factory black
FK...
Haha yeah found a really nice one with all the options I wanted and I couldn’t say no. Doesn’t help that I work for a car finance company now so I’m constantly seeing great deals!
Not sure if I...

Got a 1.8T Beetle (9C) for the wife a month ago :banana:
Bought some Work Meisters in 18x8 +30 for it so my Golf and her Beetle have matching shoes :P
Whoops, that's the LHD switch... this is the RHD one:

OEM MKIV Golf mirrors. Got em because they have electric folding motors, and the mirror control switch has extra folding and defrost settings:

Apparently I bought them in 2010! Posted about...
Stubby mirrors are on and found a badgeless grille on fleabay to cover up the badge dent in the bumper. Will put the proper grille on when I fit up the modded R32 bumper.
Reading this page on Strongarm's website, all we have to do is weigh the bonnet in kg (while hinged), then multiply it by 11 and round up. That should give us the torque that the gas charge needs to...
Might be. Gonna see if I can get it regassed with nitrogen at a higher pressure, and see if that does the trick.
oh yeah! didn't even think of that!
Boser hood extension is now complete, although with the welded on metal + bog to smooth etc my bonnet is a bit heavier and my hood strut doesn't support the weight (I could have had a wonky strut to...
lol 3 years? like you paid for it and you haven't gotten it? did you go bagraiders?
Haha it took me 2 years to chuck the Meisters on, so it'll be 2016 when you get slammed pics!
I'm gettin too old... nowadays I mod my car at glacial pace.
Years later... no work has progressed on the car, but I finally put the wheels on after puncturing two tyres on my old set!

haha yup. Best way to upgrade a 2.Slow I've decided, is to abandon it and buy a GTI instead!
At least this way while the GTI's in the panel beaters/painters etc I get to drive the 2.Slow around.
Basically gonna chuck the R32 body kit, Work Meister wheels, RHD Xenons and other bits and bobs I'd amassed over the last couple of years to go on the 2.Slow onto the GTI. And While the GTI is in the...
Upgraded the old 2.Slow on the weekend...

Hey Anth, I'm looking out for a decent mechanic to do a full service on the 2.slow. Just came across this thread and it reminded me that you've got the same as mine. Any recommendations?
Some arse-bandit in a 4WD backed into my rear driver side door and then drove off without leaving a note last night. Spewing.
Creased the panel in the door and cracked the paint too, so I can't...
thanks for the heads up, gonna try and get it. looks like a straight forward fix from the pics, hopefully I won't even have to rack it.
Installed some of those aero wipers.
