Hey guys, my name's Deshan and I'm from Australia.
I have been lurking this forum for a while now, and recently made an account but never posted.
So I thought I'd introduce myself and start up a build thread on here too, to get more ideas and feedback.
Basically, I have the base model Golf that is offered in Australia (Well was, now mk7's are out and the 77 is discontinued). Its a 1.2L Petrol turbo, 77kw.
I initially bought it as a daily, as I also have a mid spec 2012 C200 Mercedes.
Here it is on delivery day:
First mod was 17" GTI Denver wheels:
Swapped the rear tail lights for OEM GTI ones as they are tinted:
Weathershields:
Carbon eyelids:
Plastidipped front and rear emblems, as well as side mirrors:
Then came my first major mod, Megan Racing Coilovers:
Got a GTI exhaust system:
Door sill plates:
Roof racks:
Custom exhaust to make it fit better on the stock valance:
GTI Interior (I think these are the optional seats in the US?)
Roof racks plastidipped black and fairing added:
8000K HID and rubber lip I bought from a rubber shop haha (oh, and my merc)
Then got my current wheels, BBS RS Reps, 17x7.5 +38
(not a fan of reps, but needed the tyres that came with it)
Rocking up to a night meet:
GTI steering wheel swap:
Defected by highway patrol for too low:
Aftermarket ANS510 Headunit:
Went on a ~700km drive for the annual german auto display show so I taped the front of the car, quite like this colour, might wrap it.
Mk5 Carbon wing:
Wiper delete:
Side on wing:
Thats where it's at so far, near-future plans include: Air suspension (7th October), R front bumper, GTI rear bumper, R-line side skirts and new wheels (Real wheels not reps)
Thanks for viewing, looking forward to getting feedback from you guys.
