zender turbo kit and wheels

hi there, just wanted a piece of advice really. i managed to twist my ol' mates arm, and he agreeed, after 3 years to sell me his zender turbo rims, which take pride of place stacked in my garage. now however, he informs me that he also has the full and original body kit and bumpers to go with the wheels.


so. my question is…what do you think these are worth as a set? and would they be worth getting and storing? at least untill i can afford to get another mk1 and make a zender version.

your opinion on this and the zender kit itself would be greatly appreciated.

zender body kit very 80's but would you want to do this conversion in the 21st century ?  Wheels yes . body no from me .

heres a pic of them on my mk2, around a year ago.

I'd deffo go for it, it would look mint mate.

well, got the kit yesterday and i turns out that it isn't the zender kit after all. although the guy was told it was. ops:  :cry:, but it is the autosport & design kit that was advertised with the bbs and zender kit.

i personally havn't seen this kit before and actually think its a lot more modern looking than it looks in the picture, and more upto date than the zender and bbs kits. it can also be used without the skirts as the arches mould to the cills, and then the skirts mould around the arch. i'll put up some pics, as soon as i get my mk1 back.

thanks for all your opinions.

I have some Zender Turbos and a full Zender kit from my old GTI Engineering just wondering if any of you dudes know where I can get hold of some centre caps as I only have two good ones!

(You could try a advert in golf+ mag) Only joking I saw the article about you going to all the shows checking out whats happening out there > Sounds like a nice job

Hello pal, yeah I am happy with it, I also do the same for Performance French Car Magazine, which is not quite as fun. My G60 project is going to be in the staff cars section from July onwards... JJ
