Welcome back dude, did wonder why I havnt seen you on the Photoshop section for while lol.

Cars looking good though, like the carbon wrap, but at the same time I kinda think the chequer roof looked better?!? But in all honesty the only thing

I'd change would be the wheels for some sort of deep dish euro looking wheels.

Thanks for the reply guys, she now has a full gti interior in her bought from ford fair for £20! :D Still gota fit the doorcards and wire in the electrics on the drivers seat but these will be done asap, pics to follow this weekend once ive given her a wash and hoover inside. Also looking to change the splitter for an espace one soon as I got some money together as I want the front to look abit lower.

 

Oh yeah and Tez about the wheels, your right it defifnately needs some more euro looking wheels, but its a financial thing haha. The wheels id absolutely love to have on it and hopefully itll happen at some point is some cossie wheels, my 21st is coming up end of november so maybe ill ask for them then, although my little one is due on the 25th november aswell so maybe not lol

I love the roof, shame its not a real carbon section which would be even better, Ive always wanted a carbon hood, prolly get one next year, I will without doubt get alot of hate for doing it lol The cheque roof was gash, its that whole rat look bs thats been going on, plus its not a pretentious VW so the carbon is way better.

 

I always prefered the RS Accessory skirts but just get the normalled GTI/RS ones, they look the nuts in the flesh, I have them now.

 

Keep it up, get somes skirts and spats please, never been a fan of non-spoiler escort so stick one of them on too!

i've just read this thread from page 1 all the way through & was really impressed with the amount of work gone into it & the transformation but im sorry fella, personally i dont think the most recent pics do any justice to the car. carbon roof on pepper red car? great effort & looks well done but imo i'd stick a set of gti skirts & an rs accessory spoiler on her. get rid of that carbon roof & she'd look a winner :D

 

however it's your car & i suppose it boils down to personal taste so if you're happy thats all that matters. :)

Hey guys, been super busy with moving and getting everything ready for the lil nipper thats on the way so aint been on here much.

Next year the roof is coming off and im going to get it sprayed hopefully, have gone off the carbon look myself now :cheers:

 

Roof looks good man. 100x better than the chequered one.

 

I think this needs slammin' on deepdish rims and some smoothing off for the euro look :)

 

Im hoping next year I can do something long these lines as the look of it now is just abit too plain for me :cheers:

Alright Kid.. how's it going?

 

Alright mate, good yeah, bit stressed out from all the packing etc, moving into a bigger house in october and the amount of things you have to sort out when theres a lil nipper on the way is ridiculous haha but itll be worth it in the end :D Cars ended up being put onto the back burner for now which is abit depressing but im not too bothered till the new year now. Hows it all going with you anyway? I suppose we'll get told off for talking in a thread now :roll:

UPDATE:

 

Wow its been a long time since ive posted on this thread now, hopefully not forgotten haha :eek: not good, well its finally time for an update. Have managed to start doing a few bits to the car again with ford fair coming up. Latest additions are a complete wheel change, got bored of the usual mondeo look so have bought myself some TSW volcano 17's and have added carbon centre caps to match the roof and some dice caps. Only managed to get a few crappy pics whilst out shopping but will clean the car and get some better ones when I can:
