I like it Shane, generally I don't like Golfs at all so thats saying something (NOI btw ;)). The thing about this one is that it the mods are subtle, Golfs with Lexus style lights and body kits look kack IMO. Any more pics, different angles, interior etc?

Looking good, I like the colour, and the wheels have the arches nicely filled. Any more plans for her?

Cheers for the feedback guys.

@Dave: You're right though, it's a fairly functional shape.... ;)

@CJ: I agree 100% - the fact there are 1.4's running around with lexus lights, tacky spoilers, grills, tints etc.... nearly put me off. In fact I don't even like heavily modified golf's even if they're done really professionally....... I'll get some more pics together after I've replaced the naff aftermarket grill with a standard OEM one - hopefully early next week.


@Kevinod: Keeping every thing as OEM as possible so there won't be to much else done - looking at a remap by LogicAutomotive and I migh also consider fitting some TT/S3 carriers to take some TT/S3 disks up front. Apart from that all I really want is a phatnoise (VW's 40Gb mp3 player).


@MfFTO: I love those wheels - fill out the arches nicely and the ride is still fairly compliant even with the new billies and rear arb - it's only the backend that feels a bit too firm. But I really need to get some VW centre caps.......

Shane, I have a new set of VW centre caps at home that you're welcome to. I'll measure them later and let you know the size (are they all standard?)

That would be cool CJ - I'd appreciate that - not sure how the sizing works or if there are specific centres for the RS4's...


Hey I might even get a spin in an FTO out of this ..... :lol:
