Now this one I really like! Not sure about the style of the wheels but the size of them, the ride height and the clean looks of the car I think are stunning!

 

[dieselweasel]

Wow, awesome [^]

 

[Foxy]

Woah!

Well wide, clean 'n' low.

Did you notice the rear arches look like they've been 'rolled' for clearance!

That front grille is sex on a stick! - is that a charactere?

 

[JMcQueen]

'Tis nice. Not to keen on the style of the wheels though

 

[KuniD]

Wow can't believe thats Golfists motor, he's made some changes! [:O]

The smoothed bumpers look great. Foxy, looks like a Caractere grill to me.

Stunning [^]

 

[Foxy]

Oh, and the front arches are not stock items either !!!!!

Blimey, i want that look.......it's superb.....now where's the bank manager's home number..

 

[hendy18s]

[Tabs]

They've probably been rolled to take those rims!

Didn't twig when I posted them but I remember now. It used to look like this...

I thought it looked stunning then!

 

[dannyboy]

Wow that really does look awesome.

Wheels look massive.

that car is stunning, i love the smoothed bumpers, think thats they way to go now, smooth all round! im now tempted to do it to my golf when i get it soon,

not made on the wheels to, but is very different and the 1st mk5 golf i have seen all smooth!!

any other photos of the mk5 golf smoothed?

I will buck the trend. I much prefer it as it was. The current wheels look like there is zero rubber on them, they are far too low profile for my taste.

This picture makes the car look ridiculous to me.

I am not a fan of the smoothed look, it makes it look like a bubble or a droplet of water.

I do however like the front end.

Just my 2p worth

I have to say I prefer it how it was (and its got nothing to do with my pending RS6s honest - it does actually)

I think its "almost bling" if you know what I mean.

Foxy - another Peter K fan. Did you see the comedy store last night, he was so raw! I dont know when that was but I am sure it wasnt recent.

 

[Carlos]

Not a fan, wheels are too big and they look minging.

 

[cjp2k]

hes obviously a pimp.... dont like the wheels... but like the idea of 20s on a golf lol

 

[Foxy]

It's interesting to hear views from both sides of the fence.......

Remember folks - change is inevitable.

Back in the days of MK3's when 16"s were radical, who would ever have thought 18"s would be great on a Mk4 or Mk5 ??

I aint a fan of 20's and i think they won't be daily driver wheels - the ride must be horrible.

I also prefer the previous pic of his car - it had more caracter (no pun).

I do respect the work done and the originality - after all, who's setting the standard for him to emulate?

 

[Jace]

Old chinese proverb say

Innovation not imitation is the route to success

AWESOME machine [^]

 

[iieey]

More pics of this car and the building process can be found here...

Went to alot of work to get it to how it is !!

I like the look now smoothed, but with the RS-6 rims.

Either way a very very nice car, im started to be converted to the new mk5 seeing what other people have done, i dont think i would do this to a new car though!
