looks ace arun. love the wheels.;)

:thumbup:


as mike said theres something missing. i think bonnet bra or splitter or something :think:

I'll be getting a bonnet bra soon, but I think its the lights that'll tranfrom the front end some more. I already have the 4motion splitter on it, hard to see though in the dark pics. The only other splitter that actually looks better on some bora's is the gli, but thats american and costs a bomb! Other than that there's the lcr splitter which looks sh1te

colour coded splitter and rear bumper bottom trim?

Seen it done before, hate it!

looks much better,when you put just the front wheels on i was thinking the headlights need splitting and a bit of tint then it will look much better.
oh and the stickers need to come off just my opinion though.

Yeah I'll be doing that, along with HID's :)

I'm liking the stickers :p, not bothering with any more, just them few I had lying around for a while :)
 
the only reason i dont like them is because everyone has the same two stickers when there car is low with new wheels which for me ruins a good looking car.
but if you like them thats the important thing.
whats the difference between the mk4 jetta and the bora i was hopeing you could tell me being a bora owner?

Yeah I get you, but know one around "my ends" has them as there's not many dubs around, so round here they're pretty unique lol

Same thing, just that in America they call it a Mk4 Jetta, not a Bora! :)

Looks good, like al, hate the stickers ;)

Al, its not really just an american thing, jetta was always a boot version of the equivalent golf, spanning back to mk1, mk2, for mk3 it was Vento (why people put front ends on mk3 golfs), mk4 they made the Bora, mk5 went back to Jetta, and they are gonna bring out the mk6 Jetta (it is gorgeous)

I like it mate, a lot !!

I think some colour coded wing mirror covers would help the front blend in a bit and take the edge off the black rims. Just my 2p though as love your work here.

I see a silver bora that belongs to a mech at Midland VW most days and his has the half moon taken out the bonnet with a badgless grill. Looks smart. I'd be tempted to go for that and maybe have the boot smoothed off..

Wouldnt go for a bra, see far to many corsa's rocking them now.

The wheels aren't black, do look it though in the pics, they're pearlescent blue :)

I see what you mean about the mirrors, not a fan of them, they were colour coded before, may colour code to the wheels. If I can I'll get stubbys. As for a bra, I'm going to be respraying the front end, so it'll come in use, I'm not going to be keeping it on for looks.

Amazing what some wheels and lowz can do for a car!

Looks sweet..

Cheers pal!

haha thanks, Jordan

I'd love new headlights, mine are trashed, so expensive though. Same with rear lights, really want the American version, look so nice, but so expensive :( They get everything :( lol



I was considering thinner tyres for more lows, have decided against it for now, quite liking the bulky tyre look!

Being "dub" is hard :(.

Had a full car going to football, had music on and couldn't hear the scraping from the rear, only realised when I could smell burning rubber.

Came home to find this had happened :(

Your just a little bit too dub boyo. Bad times with the rub destroying the paint. Get those spacers on the lathe and have 5mm knocked off.

I never thought it would scrape as the rear isnt that low, look at the arch gap in the pic! So so so annoyed!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll just have to buy 15mm, and move the 20's to the front

You want the fronts scraping too? Problem is spring rates on most coily's are still quite soft so you get alot of compression when you stick in 4 more people to the car.

The front doesn't scrape with the 20mm at that height, I had them on before I switched to the back.

Where can I get the spacers cut down if I need to? Wouldn't it be safer to just buy "ready made" 15 or even 10mm's.

Luckily I should be able to spray it this week, was planning on spraying a few other bits already.

ouch :( not good dude

are you dumb arun, the fronts are not rolled (the rears are) you won't scrub at the moment, when you put 20's on....then it will scrub down and then, which will burn your paint again

tbh its the mahoosive tyres mate (not even just the sidewall, more the width)
