Hi all,

Just got myself a mk2 GTi in grey, I'm colourblind so it's difficult to say what shade.

I intend to use it as a daily and sell my T5 (current daily) and classic American pick-up.

I plan to upgrade the brakes (maybe G60) and would like to swap the wheels out for BBS (personal preference)

Just swapped out the headlining and ordered a NSF wing to replace the one that's on there at the minute (rot).

Not sure how to add images here, do they need hosting?

Anyway, I'll no doubt be lurking, looking at what you guys have done to your cars to make them easier to live with.

Regards,

Siv.

Thanks.

The link to uploading pictures I’ve now amended the thread to show instructions by picture hopefully that makes it easier for many others.
