btw, u need 35 posts to get to 33k :thumbup:

[GTI2007]

Hadn't even noticed that

[GTI2007]

Just saw that the gap between me and the next highest poster (VDubVirus) is more then 8k posts

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i think im really addicted to this

[GTI2007]

you are not the only one

[GTI2007]

we 2 are the most active posters in here during the last few months

[turboed]

Why do you think that is?

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

u mean in this thread or whole forum? :biggrin:

[turboed]

Thread.

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i cant find that hatch shelf that used to be available at tmtuning anywhere. any pointers?

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

this is the only picture i could find

47286

[GTI2007]

and why are interested in it?

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i kinda like it

[GTI2007]

Normally you should be able to get it at your dealers but it's probably not going to be cheap then

Edit: I found this on the VW Germany site:

47287

Costs 99,90 €

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

well, it was originally intended for Audi A3, but should fit

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i guess thats it

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

can u post link to that page?

[GTI2007]

I just saw that it is for the Golf Plus so I'm not sure if it's going to fit the regular Golf

[GTI2007]

It can be found here : https://www.volkswagen-zubehoer-shop.de/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10051&storeId=10001&productId=11341&langId=-3&categoryId=13424&parent_category_rn=12464&top_category=30842&isThirdMenueActive=true&thirdLevelMenueId=14796

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i cant decide if i should stick with bumper i have and just add votex lip (200eur) or buy a jetta/gt front (150eur) and add lip later (probably 200 as well)

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

EDIT: i have found votex lip i mentioned above on your page and its 369 euros :frown: but its 200 pounds here in uk though

[GTI2007]

but Germany is not the cheapest country

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

but germany is making it, damnit :frown:

[GTI2007]

Indeed. Weird enough

[GTI2007]

Finished my first day of work this day already

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i have just came home from another work. 11 hours on recycling waste (paper, plastics..) after few minutes i called to the agency to find me something else, but i had to finish shift anyway

[GTI2007]

Hope you get something betters one of the following days

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i made a mistake when i told them in the agency that im a student, thats why im getting only shitty work.. guess i will have to try other one

[GTI2007]

Would also like to find myself a job I actually like instead of the one I do now just for the money I earn with it

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

dont u have Job agency over there in Belgium?

[GTI2007]

Only for temporary jobs

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

well that sucks. we dont have job agencies where i live at all, luckily there are loads of them here in UK

[GTI2007]

Ready or not but here it is:

my 33,000th post on this forum with many thanks to Boris for sticking up with my bullshit these last few weeks or months

Beers for everyone :drinking:

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

Congrats Johan

PS: u made another 4 posts till i wrote this

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

u know im here for u bro :wink: no homo

[GTI2007]

It's great spending time with you in here

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i had a call from my last boss that if i want i can return there for few weeks

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

im very happy now

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i hope everything will work out for me

[GTI2007]

I would love to find myself a girl with who I can share my evenings and my days off with

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

all of us would love to have somebody

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

good things come to those who wait

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

take me for an example :biggrin:

[GTI2007]

How you mean?

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

it was a joke reffering to that i had to wait 10 months to get my car back

[GTI2007]

I also have to do a pretty long wait IMO before I can what I want

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

but remember that right after u buy r20 i will be knocking on your door :biggrin:

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

u are going to show me what will be so special about it

[GTI2007]

probably drive to the first red light and floor it when it turns green

[GTI2007]

cause it's rumoured to do 0 to 100 km/h in under 5.5 seconds

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

that would be a nice surprise

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i really dont know if i should go with GTI front or Jetta/GT front

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

ive just found cheap GTI middle piece, that would make the final cost for a whole bumper incl painting around 150 eur, but i dont wanna look like a GTI wannabe

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

Jetta/GT front is hard to find, more expensive, but overall looks better IMO

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

if i would go with a GTI front, i would definitely get rid of that badge, and change that red strip to silver color

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i really dont know which way to go

[GTI2007]

The GTI, GT and Jetta bumper are the same piece. The main difference between the 3 are the grills and the middle piece which is chromed for the Jetta while just black for the GTI and the GT

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

The GTI, GT and Jetta bumper are the same piece. The main difference between the 3 are the grills and the middle piece which is chromed for the Jetta while just black for the GTI and the GT

AFAIK the middle piece is together with grille, which is different for GTI and GT

[GTI2007]

That's indeed true altough I'm still thinking a bit of combining the Jetta middle piece with the badgeless GTI grills for my Golf

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i dont want to modify anything. i would love to have gt front, as the black makes nice contrast to silver and im getting rid of chrome on sides anyway

[GTI2007]

What chrome on the sides? You mean the strip alongside the rub strips?

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

yep, thats what i mean. my side mouldings that are supposed to magically protect my car from door dings. they are made of two pieces, one chrome look and one colormatched

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

my dad agrees with me on mods, we even saw a GTI on a parking lot in front of Tesco, we were standing there, talking, pointing, ppl were like WTF they are doing? :biggrin: so it looks like i will start buying my new front piece after piece, starting with middle section with honeycomb grill for 25 pounds from ebay :smile:

[GTI2007]

Good luck with it. Post pics when you are done with it

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i will not be done till next year, because i will buy mainly from ebay, and im waiting for best possible prices. tuning on budget :wink:

so:
-centre piece with honeycomb 25,- (auction ends tomorrow, will try to get in touch with ebayer)
-whole bumper 25,- plus 20 postage (lives too far from my location and the color is red. idk how it will look like overpainted with silver)
-side grilles around 20,-

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

and after i finish my front, then
-shaved doors from those mouldings
-r32 rear with no exhaust cutout
-side skirts (possibly GTI)
-new windscreen (current one is not original, that asshole bought cheap replica from poland)
-chip (140hp)
-wheels 17" from VW for 100.-

[GTI2007]

Those plans sound nice but why don't you get the R32 sideskirts. Those are the same as the GTI ones but they are already primered so much easier to paint then

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

idk about details. i already pm'ed ebayer for centre piece, will see if he will reply tomorrow, so maybe on weekend i will have it. thats probably all for now. i found a cheap red GTI bumper, and i dont know if its not going to be a problem painting that to silver

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

and if after few years i will still own this car im going to do something like this

http://www.doobybrain.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/sharpie-gallardo-wheel.jpg

its not hard, actually i do such paintings all the time at school during classes, so i would try that on my car

[turboed]

I saw that Lambo before, cool stuff, just not for me. All white Gallardos are sexy.

[GTI2007]

idk about details. i already pm'ed ebayer for centre piece, will see if he will reply tomorrow, so maybe on weekend i will have it. thats probably all for now. i found a cheap red GTI bumper, and i dont know if its not going to be a problem painting that to silver

Just requires sanding down every bit of red. Put on primer and then the silver colour to finish it

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i would love to do at least the front this summer

[GTI2007]

Would make your Golf look a whole lot better

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

there was a guy in birmingham with exact front i wanted, he even suggested a meet but as soon as he found out im foreigner he stopped replying. thats the only downside of being in foreign country i think. lots of ppl hate us. but its alright, i know that in my country we dont like foreigners too. thats normal for all nationalities i guess

[GTI2007]

what a tool

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

its raining since i came to UK.
good: because english rain is somehow cleaner, makes my car look like after fresh wash
bad: because i damn want to wash my car by myself, including waxing. i really miss it

[GTI2007]

I also need to wash our car but I've been to lazy to do it while it's almost 30 degrees outside or else raining last few weeks

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i just came from Tesco and i realized that my turbo is working from 1000 to 1500 rpm. WFT? IIRC my turbo always spooled from 2000 to 3000. who for love of god would need power in so low rpm??

[GTI2007]

normally the 105 HP engine should reach its max torque at 1900 rpm

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

but thats still way higher then 1000-1500. need to find more info about it

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

allright, my fault. its starting at 1000 but ending somewhere before 2000 :lol:

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

sometimes im real dumbass

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i have deleted my TDI badge from the rear, took me almost an hour. looks better now, altough there are slightly white marks on those spots, hope it will dissappear after some time

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

it was too windy today, so i stopped right after that. next week i will get some time to take off GOLF badge as well

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

and im not doing my front this year, not enough money

[GTI2007]

Normally would waxing the car help a lot

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

just my insurance costs 1300 euros

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

Normally would waxing the car help a lot

yeah, i forgot to mention that i waxed my whole hatch right after that

[GTI2007]

That's a lot but pretty normal for being so young. The insurance for my 68 HP Audi 80 was little over 1000 €

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

it looks much better without badges. shame i dont have money to do all mods at once

[GTI2007]

I would remove every badge on my Golf

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i desperately neeeeeeeeeeeeeed to win lotto or something :biggrin:

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i have another idea for cheap mod. can i paint seatbelt buttons from red to silver? is it legal? :smile:

[GTI2007]

You mean the buttons to release the seat belt?

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

yes, thats what i mean

[GTI2007]

doesn't sound illegal to me to paint that as long as you don't interfere with the working of the release mechanism

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

that was going to be my second question, whats the possibility of fu*kin up my release mechanisms?

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

sorry for annoying u, i know u are not a vw serviceman :smile:

[GTI2007]

I have no idea. My first question would be how on earth to open them up in the first place

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i thought it could be pretty easy, my dads rear seatbelt fell apart all by itself few months ago

[GTI2007]

It looks like not that hard to open or close cause it are just a few springs to hold the seat belt I think

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

have u already checked? :smile:

[GTI2007]

Not really and I'm also not that motivated to try it and maybe f*** it up

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

what about this? http://www.gsdezigns.com/v/vspfiles/photos/EAT-SLEEP-VW-2T.jpg :smile:

[GTI2007]

what's with it?

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

will it suit golf? i find it funny because thats what i do in my car on trips :smile: eat,sleep,vw

[GTI2007]

You mean like a sticker on the hatch or rear window?

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

yes, window sticker (i would stick it on my rear window)

[GTI2007]

I'm personally not a big fan of stickers but it would fit the Golf I guess

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i think im thinking too much

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i need to calm down and get over the fact that i cant mod my car for a bit

[GTI2007]

I'm in the same sort of situation cause I'm thinking of seriously modding the car altough I don't even have it for another 6 months at least

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i will trade u for your MKVI front

[GTI2007]

You would trade an MK5 GTI front bumper for an MK6 GTI front bumper?

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

u said u want mk5 front, so i would trade with u side panels, headlights, plastic brackets, hood, bumper... :biggrin:

[GTI2007]

if the MK6 R parts at least fit your MK5 Golf and vice-versa

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

we can sure try :lol:

[GTI2007]

That's indeed true

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

what color are u planning to get?

[GTI2007]

I'm thinking of getting a CW one

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

make it RS, a lot easier to swap :lol:

[GTI2007]

That would be my second choice

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

im going off now, will get back in the evening, bye

[GTI2007]

I'm going to watch some tv then

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i hate weekends in UK

[GTI2007]

same here. Way too boring

[GTI2007]

Still having 2 days off right now and I'm bored to death

[GTI2007]

We have our national holiday here now

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

what are u celebrating?

[GTI2007]

That we proclaimed independence from the Netherlands with Leopold of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld taking the oath as first king of the Belgians in 1831

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

mmm, ok

[GTI2007]

What else do you celebrate on your national holiday

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i need to find out what size of speakers i need (front and rear) for my car, then i have to think about way of running wires to the rears and then i need to sort out new headunit (OEM one doesnt support rear speakers)

[GTI2007]

and then to decide between single or double din for a headunit

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

definitely Double din, most likely JVC AVX-820 (if i remember correctly)

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

but i have problem finding dash adaptors for aftermarket units to fit

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

do you think i will need regular speakers, or 2 way/3 way speakers for the rear? if we are going to have nice weather this weekend i might take down door card and take a look how big speaker i actually need

[GTI2007]

that thing looks pretty nice

[s4mt3k]

I feel like I am intruding even though this is a public forum... I saw NSFW then realized it was the longest 2-sided thread I have ever seen!!

Kinda nice I have to say...

[GTI2007]

Too bad that the creator who is a very good friend of mine is too busy taking care of his dad these days to come online in here

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

you mean Ongie? i miss him too

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

that thread was already created few months ago, and died after few days

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

99% of things you will think of were already done in here :biggrin:

[s4mt3k]

Too bad that the creator who is a very good friend of mine is too busy taking care of his dad these days to come online in here

family first for sure...

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

sooo whats up Mudslinger? im bored

[GTI2007]

I would love to spend some quality time with a very hot girl this weekend

[s4mt3k]

I would love to spend some quality time with a very hot girl this weekend

anyone specific or in general?

[GTI2007]

I have a few hot girls as friends

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

im angry. A N G R Y

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i just bought DYNAMAT from local store to improve sound of my factory speakers. it is supposed to be glued under the speaker. and guess what? they are not screwed, but they are holding using these f*king thins http://www.rivet.sk/img/nit9.jpg (as i dont know english term for them)..... :mad:

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

so i spent 20 euros on something i cant really use, and while taking my door panel off i scretched plastic on few places and broke 2 tabs holding it in place. VW is closed now, i have to wait till tomorrow, they should be opened, and buy new tabs. i wonder how much that will be. hope not more then 2 euros

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

and i wonder how im gonna get it back together tomorrow. :mad:

[turboed]

I think most dynamat just glues on the door around the speaker.

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

it may be my fault but u didnt understand a single word i wrote :frown:

[turboed]

I don't think I did, let me read again.

[GTI2007]

why don't you go ask this question in the ICE section of this forum Boris cause there are members who have knowledge of this material

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

well, its not worth making a new thread for this. solution is only one: if i want to apply Dynamat on my doors i have to somehow rip off my speaker, glue that Dynamat thingie and then somehow again put the speaker in its place. so im leaving ot for next summer, when all modding will start happening..

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

heres a picture of what i mean, because i have no idea whats the right word for those things. there is no simple way for me to take them down, nor put them back. ill be glad if i will succeed tomorrow with putting my panel back on :frown:

48085

[GTI2007]

those are rivets I think

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

great, at least i know how they should be called. i would call 'em fuckets, because they fucked up my great plans. VW dealer is closed today, will have to go there tomorrow and buy those plastic bolts i need to fix my panel

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

you know what name would be super funny? Ben Dover :lol: i wonder if there is somebody with that name out there

[GTI2007]

Somebody with that name does exist but is a former British porn actor: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_Dover

[nintendodude]

you can get a rivet gun and rivets at any home depot/lowes/menards for cheap.

I would use screws myself, but if you gotta do it to OEM spec... :P

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

ive got rivet gun back in slovakia but i dont feel like taking it apart by myself

[GTI2007]

I would have this kind of work done by a professional

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

its on my TO DO list now :smile:

[GTI2007]

together with a whole lot of other things I guess

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

shit load of things i would say :smile:

[GTI2007]

Same thing for me and I don't even have the car yet

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

shame that uk meeting is not happening, i was looking forward to it

[GTI2007]

what UK meeting were you talking about?

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

im talking about the meeting that Duffers wanted so badly (link) (http://www.golfmkv.com/forums/showthread.php?t=86064)

[GTI2007]

That really sucks

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

and i got sore throat for almost a week and cant get rid of it

[GTI2007]

that's not good my friend

[turboed]

Did you get the door panel fixed yet?

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

well, as i found out, UK Golfs have absolutely different tabs that hold door panel on place then european versions, so i had to put it back without one of them ... will fix it later when i get back to slovakia

[GTI2007]

that's what you call VW logic

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i still cant get over the fact that they used damn rivets to mount speakers. every single car we ever had and messed with had normal screws, just mine golf has rivets. i can only dream about better sound for now

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

and ive been in vw dealership today again, ordered correct fog lamp cover because that fool used UK version grille with 4 bars on left side, and 6 bar version on right side, so from front view it looked ghey. will try to sell the 4 bar version on the internet, to get few pounds back from it. then i will have to order gloss B pillar covers, because i have matte on left and gloss on right side. lots of small detailes he didnt care to sort out

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

then i will need new windows on passenger side, because current ones are scratched badly from the inside (we were standing on them after accident, while trying to get out)

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

just after i fix these detailes i can start with modding

[GTI2007]

That's already quite a list before you can start modding then

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i will try to somehow mix modding with renewing my car

[GTI2007]

On you can call it renewing to your vision

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

kind of.... hey, another idea straight out of my head: gloss black roof? would it be too much?

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

and i got another reason to take off my side mouldings and repaint the door: neighbours scratched my door few days ago, found out just now

[GTI2007]

so you are going to shave the doors also then?

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

yep. this year i need to pay for the repair, but next year, every single cent i earn is going into my car until im happy with it

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i found picture of RS Golf exactly as i want mine to look like, plus i photohopped sides to be clear. here is what im after:

http://i427.photobucket.com/albums/pp353/adv4nc3r/2098375793_b271911caa7b.jpg

[GTI2007]

That looks pretty damn good. Would want to see your Golf in real then when it's finished

[GTI2007]

I'm starting to doubt which gearbox I want in my future Golf

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

well, sooner or later it would be nice to stop by in hoogstraten (or wherever u will be) and check some attractions. :thumbup: i love traveling in my car

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i cant help you to decide :smile: sometimes i wish i had bought DSG, but overall im happy with manual

[GTI2007]

I would like a manual to be in total control but I would be awesome to have a DSG while doing a track day. Just not entirely sure about having no problems with the lifespan of the clutches in it when I would really put a BT into it

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i dont know what might be wrong but i just cant get better fuel consumption then 6.6 l/100km. i used to have 5.0, on long trips even 4.2. maybe its just because im driving very short distance to work (5km at most)

[GTI2007]

Just saw that the S3 (similar engine to the Golf R normally) is 0.2 seconds faster to 100 km/h with the S-Tronic gearbox or what Audi calls the DSG

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

every model with DSG is somehow faster then manual version afaik

[GTI2007]

i dont know what might be wrong but i just cant get better fuel consumption then 6.6 l/100km. i used to have 5.0, on long trips even 4.2. maybe its just because im driving very short distance to work (5km at most)

That could be the problem cause a TDI requires longers distances to get the average below 5 l/100 km cause our Golf averages 4.9 l/100 km during the last 2,000 km

[GTI2007]

every model with DSG is somehow faster then manual version afaik

That's indeed true IIRC

[GTI2007]

It must be a whole lot of fun to have a DSG equipped GTI or R on a race track

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

wheres the fun in that? inst racing about your driving skill? not just about turning the steering wheel

[GTI2007]

It just seems a lot more difficult when having to shift manually while keeping a steady pass threw the corners of the track

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

but THATS where the fun kicks in :biggrin:

[GTI2007]

That's very true and especially when you have a short shifter on your manual gearbox

[GTI2007]

the biggest part of me still wants the good old 6 speed manual gearbox

[GTI2007]

Especially in combination with a short shifter

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i would love 6 speed on my engine, because it gets really loud at high speeds

[GTI2007]

Not that hard with having the engine working at around 3,000 rpm while driving at 120 kph

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

well, most of the time im doing 140 and that puts me somewhere above 4000

[GTI2007]

I haven't been on the freeway with our Golf

[GTI2007]

So I don't have a clue about anything it does above 110 kph

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

well u def should go for a fast drive

[GTI2007]

I know it has a topspeed of 183 kph IIRC

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

first day of the week is over

[GTI2007]

For me the first day of work of the week is over cause I had the day off on monday

[s4mt3k]

For me the first day of work of the week is over cause I had the day off on monday

my 1st day of the week was Sunday this week, flew to Chicago and went to my hotel to get ready for an early monday start sooooooo my 1st day of the week wasn't too bad

[GTI2007]

I'm one day away from having it weekend

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

almost weekend :smile:

[GTI2007]

2 days of doing absolutely nothing

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

today i mannaged to make ASR icon flash on my display. was leaving work and one dumbass that pissed me few minutes before that was tailgating me, so i floored it and let it rev to 5k. def made me feel a bit better

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

nothing can ruin your day like your british co-worker saying: i hate foreigners...
and i thought we had quite good relationship. guess i will always be the one that doesnt belong here

[GTI2007]

That really sucks my friend

I really need to find a better job cause I really start to hate my current one

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

[GTI2007]

Being single is definately ftw...

Not when you still live at your parents

Not when you still live at your parents

Yea I hear you, but living at your parents and having a gf is pretty lame as well. What you need to find is a girl with her own place, then you are golden... :thumbsup:

I miss being single, when my money was my money haha. (I hope my fiance doesn't read this, must remember to close this window when I am done...)

[GTI2007]

That is indeed so true. A girl with her own house is awesome. The girl I like right now is currently searching for her own place so maybe in a few weeks or months I will live together with her hopefully

sweet, won't see it here for a long while still... sucks

edit: make sure you take pix!!

[GTI2007]

I really hope that they don't use the same wheels as the GTI cause on the current spyshots they do

i bet they won't... they prolly just thru those on for camo & practicality

[GTI2007]

Could be. We'll have to wait for the official pics to be sure about the wheels but I guess they will go for 18" wheels like on the R32 it's going to replace

yep, im sure it'll be good

[GTI2007]

Not that I would keep the stock wheels on it for long

[s4mt3k]

I kept mine on till this summer, 2.5 yrs... now my 17' classics are my winter wheels.

[GTI2007]

I will keep them as winter wheels most likely also

[GTI2007]

With our current car I don't even bother to buy winter wheels cause with it only having 105 HP

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

does that mean u dont have much snow in Belgium?

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

im looking forward for this winter, it will be my first winter in my golf :rolleyes:

[GTI2007]

Last winter we had like 2 inches of snow once

[GTI2007]

We don't get that much snow here in the winter

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

our last winter was bs, but previous winters we had around 10 inches and loads of ice

[GTI2007]

Don't think that I will be doing a lot of driving this winter

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

i think i will do a lot of driving this winter. screw it, im paying almost 1500 euros for insurance, so let those bitches pay again (dont worry, no rolling this time :wink:)

[Adv4nc3r_Mk5]

but if i manage to do it again i can buy an MKVI from those money :rolleyes:
