Did yoy try Autosystems in Waterford for the suspension parts? (051) 872914 or (085) 7251403.
JOMO Engineering in Mullingar supply susp. parts too - (044) 76700, John is the man to talk to he does be on this forum.

VW speed.co.uk might be able to sort you out with the anni lip though I'd say the company Plane mentioned could be better, Autosystems might get the anni lip too but not sure.

For the bodywork, you could give PWM Styling a ring, Peter - (086) 8652143 or J.S Design - (01) 8433080 or (086) 3806714, they're around your area.
These are body styling places but I'm sure any proper bodyshop would do what you want done.

Thought you had decided you like the MS Designs kit and intended keeping it on??>

As already said try Autosystems in Waterford first. Trevm is a forum member and he runs it.

Any decent man with a welder should be able to weld on a couple of stainless steel tips to the original exhaust. Trevor (VAGE site admin) did it to his Mk 4 when he had it, and with the V6 4motion rear valance it looked exactly like a Milltek rear box. There's a pic of it on the site cos I came across it during the week. Works out a lot cheaper than a stainless backbox. If you want a bit of noise as well though you'll need a stainless back box.

Here it is, Trevors old car....
Love the RC's, suit it perfectly.

i like it well enough but the back valance isnt actually to match the rest and its annoying me, its so expensive to get the proper one (200stg just for the rear valance) that i might just get anni parts

id like to get the skirts removed if i could but ill need a decent bodyshop as they are bonded on

any ideas? places above are a bit far away,im in dun laoghaire

That would be for the genuine VW rear lower valance though, ie. the replacement part that you'll get if you order a genuine VW/Votex bodykit-this isn't the black bit that you'll find as standard on all Golfs including the GTI, it's plastic & must be colourcoded, and would be around that price alright. It looks similar to the Anni one in this link...but is much more expensive!

The black one that comes as standard on all Golfs including GTI wouldn't be near that price, I doubt if t would be any more than 50 Euro.

no the ms design rear valance is 200

im thinkin if i can get the ms designs skirts off ill just get a 4mo rear valance and front valance and a twin exhaust

and some 17" wheels

 

[BrendanM]

Ah think I'm with you now. The current rear valance is an MS Designs one but it's not part of the same kit that's on the rest of the car. Is that right?

I'd be inclined to leave the skirts on as they're the nicest part of that kit and God knows what marks wil be left on the paint after you remove them. The paint shouldn't be damaged but it may be hard enough to get the bonding off it.

Word of warning, the genuine VW/Votex front spoiler (that's the one that must be colourcoded) isn't cheap. It's similar looking to the Anni one but it doesn't have those 3 gaps in the centre. In my opinion it's much nicer. It's listed at 190 Euro. Here's a pic of it....

The plain black valance (it's not as deep as the one pictured above) shouldn't be anymore that 80 Euro but doesn't look near as good. The genuine colourcoded front Votex spoiler finishes the front of it off nicely, makes the car look lower at the front but still has plenty of ground clearance.

Not sure how accurate those prices are though cos it lists the rear roof spolier at 271 Euros and I got it from the main dealer for 180.

542 yoyo's for the genuine R32 front bumper...gulp!!!

The only thing is you'll know they'll fit properly. I helped fit an MS Designs front spoiler to a friends Golf couple of years back & it was a nightmare. Never again, wasn't a good fit at all.

Hope your german is good! And they know how to charge!

Genuine Anni rims are 509 Euro per rim...they are BBS I suppose. 2036 Euros for a set, then stick tyres on them, not cheap at all.

I would agree with Brendan, be carefull if buying aftermaket stuff, some of it can be a poor fit. The genuine items are expensive but as Brendan said they will fit properly.
Have you got the original valance? You could just colour code this...

im just gonna get a v6 front and rear black valance, still look good and none of this messing about

hopefully i can get the skirts off without too much hassle, will have to see

 

[willgti]

I would leave the skirts aswell. Just change the front and rear valances. When you get them off you might wish you hadn't of touched them...
