Looks fantastic mate and sits really well on those new wheels, fantastic effort and was good to see it in the flesh on Sunday

thanks Andy, I'm made up with the difference they make I really wanted a set in this spec and fully intended to buy some to refurb to this colour, when i saw them for sale online, to say I was excited is an understatement

Yeah. Dem wheeeeellsss !

...but sort out the exhaust wrap mate. It was dangling at the back like a piece of used toilet paper on Sunday. lol

Small update from this weekend...

Spats refitted and the torn exhaust wrap is fixed

Stainless steel kick plates I bought a while back

Crystal sidelights fitted, a bit marmite but I think it freshens up the front end vs the standard sidelights






Arty shot just cause


Next on the list is to fit some new steering rack bushes & to also fit my painted rocker cover that I've be meaning to do for over 4 years
Also need to get a few scuffs and scrapes sorted on the front wing & bumper at some point in the future.

I like how the back of the car looks now that I've got wider wheels

I bought a daily driver to save the S14a from the winter salt

Its a 54 plate VW Golf, 1.6 fsi, graphite blue, with 76,000 miles and a full service history

This weekend it got a full service as the light was on, now it just needs a brake fluid change and some better tyres, dont like budgets Must resist changing the wheels though, I need to keep reminding myself its a daily

[Jonny Wilkinson]

I can see you in a golf. Like a goldfish on a motorbike !
Get your 14 salty and just wash it properly and regularly : D

Haha too late, its parked outside my house! Need it for short journeys, trips to the dump ect.

I actually wanted something rarer/older classic mini, bettle, morris minor but potential rust put me of the idea, plus I get way to attached to things and would start being precious about it if it was rare/old.

You should have bought my s13. Very practical for runs to the tip.

Looks really nice this does, those sidelights look so much better than the clunky standard items.
