these 15x7's (et 28) came up for sale on here and snapped them up,only planned on keeping them on it till i could afford a set of borbets but they grew on me the more i loked at them!!



colour coded the grille(it was matt black when i bought it) stuck on the wheels and a toledo splitter after a bit of chopping and cutting (made bits of the cheap ass vr splitter on a country road) i was happy out for all of a month

since then its got a lot of mechanical and small bits done to the outside
like new back axel bushings,wishbone bushings, balljoints, pads,1 rear cylinder,
freed out siezed brake caliper, de-catted, and a full jetex s/s exhaust, a4 110bhp injectors and tuining box(till i can afford a proper remap)
Inside: i put i a toledo 3 spoke leather wheel,same as the gti/gt tdi golfs ect...
and a good sound system,sony blackface radio,2 sets of components in the doors, 6x9's sub and amp Exterior:american tub, joey'd headlights black badges,de- badged the rear, smoked the side repeaters,front indicators and dummies,new sideskirts and clips ase the old ones were corroded and now.............PINK centers and a polished lip on the remotec's!!!!!
more plans are rear disc conversion, front mount, and beige mk4 leather and 2 new sills as someone thought it would be a great idea to fill some holes with fiberglass
