mk1 gti + 6n2 gtiy0y0y0y0
I'm Lee and I'm new here. I'm from Drybrook, work near Cheltenham and I probably know a couple of you.
Well, here's my pride and joy.
How I got her off Mugly, from edition 38.
This is how she stands for the time being.
She's not as straight as she looks in the photos though, so I'm planning on stripping her down, knocking out the dents, new colour, bar stool inspired interior, air ride (ooooh controversy), small chrome bumpers (on order) and I have some of these bad boys to sit her on:
Just waiting on a bit of nicer weather, getting the garage cleared for her and a big fat wedge of christmas bonus from work.
That and I need to learn to weld, of course. haha
And here's the daily. My mk5 6n2 GTI when I bought her.
Then I did this.
Uhoh.
Then.
And now I have her looking respectable again.
Be nice to speak to some of ya :]
All the best.

Aye, it's not a bad little goer at all. Not stupidly fast, but I could still kill myself in it, which is the main thing. :] haha
Yeah, I'm rocking the fake splits! Lensos. I wanna get the original BBS refurbed and back on. Those Lensos are dire in this weather, trying to keep clean.
I'm surprised by the amount of people around the Forest that are into dubs. I can't say I've seen many of you about.

I used to run Ronal Turbos on mine, had them imported from Germany before it became fairly easy to get them, I ran a lower ET number so they filled the arches lovely!
Was a good little car apart from cambelt tensioner breaking twice, which caused all the valves etc to bend! Not good...
I fancy similar wheels (Lenso's) for my Skod for the summer, they will be wide & euro all the way baby!!
There's plenty of dubs about in the FOD, you just gotta keep your eye's peeled!
|
dEdzy

I'm definitely feeling the fab, mate. Splits should look nice.
I went for those lensos cos I thought they'd give me some nice tuck, but how wrong could I be? haha. Way too small at 15".
Have you got any photos of your olop??
|
Callum
|
There you go fella, I could only find a couple on this computer...
|
dEdzy
|
Yeah man, I'm liking the ronals! They were on the cards when I was looking for new wheels. Looks real nice man.
I'm currently trying to find a way to docking my ipod in one of the air vents in the dash. I saw it done on a lupo, ages ago, but I can't find the thread again.

Callum

Might be this one?

|
dEdzy

Hey, cheers man :]
Bought these bad boys today from MartyP (who turns out to be the coolest geezer on the planet)
Fuchs or Cookies?? :S haha
|
Callum
|
Those are sexual dude, loving the stretch
They will look awesome on the MK1 or the olop!
|
dEdzy
|
Cheers fella. Yeah the stretch made me horny when i saw them!
Remembering i want the car painted an old school gold, what do you guys think to getting the centers sprayed a flakey matt gold colour? Like on Rotas...
I might have to try them on the olop just for the crack. :]
|
dEdzy

Trial fitted the Cookies today.
Not spot on, but with a bit of playing about, they should really suit. Gonna refurb then as well, obviously.
Also, I've got my air ride from the US...
Yeah, brilliant. The nobeyes have sent me the leaf spring set up bags... Now I've emailed and they want nothing to do with it, so any takers?? Looking for about 200 quid for the 4 bags.
And here's a bonus picture of the garage that I'm hiding from clearing out...
Comments are welcome :]

Callum
|
Holy crap, that looks like aladdins cave!!
The rims look sweet on there dude, really suit it, well gutted about the air ride for you, that would if been wicked...
|
dEdzy
|
Well, I'm gonna have to try and sell them, then get some strut bags.
I WILL have air! haha

Just been tidying up again today. Didn't have chance to do anything at the weekend, helping the o'd boy fix up his 6n polo after I kindly mashed the arse end up for him.
Got my arches off...
Found some rotty goodness.
Bodged number plate holes...
Loadsa gromets and stuff?? Is that normal??
Also, I sold my air bags
Just gotta sort some strut bags out, and I might even get a roof rack if a certain someone would sort herself out! ;]
Gonna get me some sheet steel this week as I'm on early shift and have more time to do these things.
|
dEdzy
|
Think I'm gonna have to go a bit more aggressive with those arches...
Anyone selling arch repair panels?!
|
Callum
|
I gotta Remus downpipe back exhaust system for a Mk1 GTI in the garage if your interested fella?
Was going to mod it on my Mk1 1.3, but is not as straight forward as I thought!!
Think I'm gonna slap it in the Forsale section, but thought I would offer it to you first!!
