MK1 GTI CABRIOLET 1988 'E'reg

Hi all ive just bought recently a Mk1 Cabriolet , its pretty tidy but not tidy enough.

Its the model with the small bumpers and i was wondering - would you all fit the big clipper kit or keep it standard??????

If big bumpers what will i need - and if standard has anyone any photos of what i should go for.

Its white and some previous owner has sprayed bumpers(crap job) and the wheel arches (even worse job)

Thanks all for your time!! :roll:

hi mate ive kept mine on small bumpers as they look so much better i went to a no rice meet last month and there were probaly 25 cabs and i was the only one with small bumpers

hjis is whats going in it at the moment 150bhp 20vt lump should be able to map it to 200bhp easy once its running the s is a rabbit badge i have a rabbit badge on the boot and both front wings makes it look cool

im doing the conversion myself will be doing them in the new year for ?3000 if your interested the reason its so cheap is that theres to many people getting ripped of

the vacumm pipe should go into either the back of the throttle body or the front of the inlet manifold there should be 2 pipes on the front of the inlet just trying to remember exactly where it goes got mental black to many shandys    

My mk1 is my little toy, my daily drive is a 1.8T 20v absolutely fantastic car!
