umm sum thing 2 make the car go faster, lwk nicer, but i want 2 do it up as cheap as possible, coz i know i wont get my money bk lol. So far iv bought a twin headlight conv and im gna buy sum white dk 17s next week so all ideas welcome lmao :D
 
If you're putting it on 17s it will definately need lowering. I've seen -40mm Spax springs go on eBay for 80 quid.

A nice exhaust system and aftermarket panel filter/drilled airbox will release a couple bhp and will much improve the sound. You don't have to spend loads, a Green filter won't cost much more than 30, drilling your airbox is free and you can get a custom made cat back exhaust from somewhere like Powerflow for about 250.

Never been used. Bought for my 2.0 16v.

Lowers 30mm on the front 20mm on the back. They cost over £90 when i got them. Ill sell them to you for £45. ill need to check for delivery if you want them.

I have soooooo much shizzle for these cars. If you want any front bumpers/ side skirts check with me because i have a few!

Ill probably be selling a full cupra half leather interior soon too.

its a good job u got a beeza gti.. you dont need to spend much money to make it look good.. lowered alloys and a good polish and they look the muts nuts!

my powerflow on my old 8v was £240 custom made jobbie s/s lifetime guarentee blah blah blah. if the centre section exhaust is in good condition mite be worth just putting a backbox on it for around £80? .. springs have been mentioned. but you can get some decent springs and shocks for around £300.

Telford ay it...
I just struggled my way thorugh reading that :lol:

So you want us to spend your money??

Forget the bean can, its a waste of money! No performance gain and the 8v is loud anyhoot.

Drill the airbox, the rasping noise from the engine is great and it costs nothing to do.

Alloys.....if your on a budget pick up some second hand oem 16"s like ronal multi spokes of a 16v, refurb them in a new colour to be different.

With the money you have now saved not sticking tat to it you can go about getting a decent suspension kit.....and guess what im going to say?? Slam it!!!!!!!! :D
