How I would like my golf to look...
I have been looking around for ages now trying to find the perfect looking golf and for me it is one like this:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=280280793507
But it looks like there is not actually that much done to it.
Just front and rear bumpers removed, some cools wheels.
I have also noticed that a lot of golfs have black plastic arches, are these easy to change to what the one in that link looks like?
Basically what I am asking is how difficult would it be to take a standard Mk1 golf and make it look like that?
Thanks,
Ian

the bumpers are easy to remove but you need to locate the number plate and indicators.
the arches are part of the gti kit. yes they are removable.
hope you dont get bumped into though if you do remove the bumpers.

evan with a tinchy bit of stretch?
It depends on how much stretch. In theory, any tyre fitted to a wheel, not within the tyre manufacturer's recommended min/max sizes, is an MoT failure item. In practice, Mot testers vary.
