Thought it was about time i showed you all my new Jetta.
Was good to meet up with some of you at gti inters even though it was very brief!!! (also managed to stalk Reaver down the A14!) Razz

first put the westmoreland setup on the front and had it on the banded steelies for a while;

Looks really well this. G60 arches and another 60mm drop and it would be near perfection. The westy look brings a nice US vibe and Borbet are one of those classic rims that always looks better on a Jetta than a Golf. They look like a non standard finish too??

The tailpipes sit perfectly, something i've struggled with for a while.

cheers dude Smile

im not entirely sure with the borbet's, they're just a bit too big for my liking, i wanna go lower but cant without serious arch work/tyre shredding! they are finished in powder coat chrome so not standard (and 2 of them need a refurb now Sad )

Polished lips n CCd centres would rock!!

get the arches done also, then you can slam it, as it looks sick on the As!!
