Thought I'd post the before and after pics of my Jetta. Aint done much due to cash flow problem at the minute but just trying to keep her clean and make a few subtle changes.
Took a couple of pics at work one day of the front....

Took a couple of pics under the bonnet after I got busy with the T-cut and wax....

And in the boot(original spare and tool kit I think)....

Then I aquired some 7x13" Revolution wheels which I fitted but the arch gap was to big so lopped a coil of the uprated springs to bring her lower to the ground....

Only running these wheels till funds permit to buy a set of Borbets.
Some kids ripped the badges off the rear of the car so got an old VW badge and sprayed it black and found an old pressed steel reg plate that I got off Fast Car magazine. Drilled it and screwed it on the rear where the original badge should go. I kinda like it and may keep it on....

Booked half a day off this week to underseal the car as the chassis is mint, never been welded and want to keep it the way Very Happy
Let me know what you think and if anyone is interested in the original 14's in the first two pics or the 7x13" Revolutions let me know as there available. Make me an offer or let me know what you got cheers

Won a set of these on Ebay. There 15" TSW's, not a clue on the model of wheel. Cleaned them, rebalanced them at work and fitted them.

Also bought some Meguiars bumper care and treated all the exterior plastics. Fitted the wheels and took a picture of the car.

Stripped the back seats out and parcel shelf to hoover the dirt up and waxed and polished all the metal work. Looking at retrimming the back seats but having a bash at it myself first. In the popular words of Jeremy Clarkson 'how hard can it be? lol
