if everyone remembers - my golf mk1 was involved in a little altercation - well i has now come ack from the panelbeaters - and in keeping with ruro's golf thread i have decided to show some of the little changes made to the car so here goes

heres the rear of the vehicle - all neat and nice as if the accident never ever occured



notice that you can see the chrome fuel tank cap and smoked tail lights - the new tail lights are identical to the set i had on before and the standard 14" wheels and tyres will be replaced at the next tyre change since i intend to keep the car as a sound system showpiece



this piccie shows my tailpiece which is at the end of a custom free flow exhaust system which also has a custom built branch manifold and above the tailpiece you see the razor chrome plate



this piccie of the interior shows my alu handbrake lever with brushed alu gearknob and racing pedals - now all i need to complete this is a nice small black and alu steering wheel which is the next step and to complete the interior im going to cover the seats and trim with real leather (i have a contact to do it cheaply)

im going to throw the sound back in as it was before the smash (whatever wasnt damaged) but for next year im going to redesign the entire sound install since the boot is currently back to a factory spec finish and i want to redo the entire front end of the sound install so thats gonna be done to a really high standard so the car is currently just a blank canvas for that "state-of-the-art-work-of-art" to be performed

im definitely going to keep this car since its been fixed well and my next car (hopefully either a golf 5 R32 or mercedes c class) is not going to be touched by any aftermarket accessories - the new car which i will decide on next year is gonna remain factory standard since thats gonna be my weekend "swanking" piece and is going to be purchased with every factory extra already in it - and im gonna keep this one for any creative urges i may feel and i will continue to customise this car since its a cheapie

BTW sorry for the pics - they were taken with a phone cam - and some arent too bad but the ones with the flash are not so good - i still havent bought a decent camera yet

UMM... WICKED BRU!
I DIG THE BLACK!
Nice interior.

Shweet tail piece.

thanx

though the car isnt black - she is that dark glossy green - its cos those pics were done indoors and the darkness makes her look black in the top photo

Good to have her back 'eh!

Now lets get going with the sound install!!!!

I've been waiting very patiently...

he he he.

either way. Black or green she looks shweet.
Now to see your new sound install

Went to this car sound shop in Wilrogate shopping center.
Got to check them doing installs and playing/testing their work.
