IVE GOT MY GTI BUMPER =D

[noelymack]

It came today.

£80 from ebay for the bumper without grills. Get in son.

Just dropped it to body shop and the car is going in next tuesday to be GTI-ified.

Just bought the main grill on ebay for £41 =D

Jealous?

I would be =D

I prefer the stock bumper smoothed on a golf but if you like than its all good

 

[grego2330]

good buy that mate, ill be on a mish for this too soon, how much u paying for spray n fitting n all?

 

[grego2330]

oh and get lots of pics

 

[noelymack]

Yeah ill get a load.
Well, a taxi driver smashed into my rear just before i changed the rear valance. Fkin Idiot. But thats another story.
Anyway he forced me forward into a gate so my rear and front end are currently smashed up, so rather than have it put back to standard i took my gti bumper to the body shop today to have them put it on. So in effect, nothing. =D

 

[Gaffer]

so, in a sense your glad the taxi rear ended the car?

 

[noelymack]

Yeah.
Was alot of hassle at the time, but hey now i drive a lookalike GTI thanks to him
Well i will soon anyway

Whats the horse power on your Golf noel? Is it petrol?

 

[noelymack]

Well it's like 80 as standard but I have a cai and I plan to decat and remap so I reckon ill have around the 120 msrk once I'm done

 

[Yega]

Cool. I want to remap my TDi to bring it up to 140 -150. Its at 110 atm :-D

 

[carlos2006]

You won't get 120 from a 1.4S, luck even to hit the 100 mark. Remap only works well with a Turbo. If ya get it remapped it'll increase it by about 5-8hp. Not really worth it

 

[GP-WU]

i´m not sure if remapping brings anything... the only chance that you have is clasic motor tuning

 

[Gaffer]

Noel, can you notice any difference with the cai and which one do you have?
