I thought Id show everyone what I replaced the GT with.

2008 Golf GT sport 1.4TSi. Leather, sunroof, upgrade oem touch screen HU, 6 spd manual and 42000kms.

Bought 100% stock and in 4 weeks since purchase have added;

Golf R Talladega 18's.
Eibach Pro line Springs (30mm drop)
Votex front lip
Matt black front VW badge
Matt black rear GT badge
Stubby antenna
20% tint

I have ordered and am waiting on oem GTi side skirts and oem alloy pedals.

On the list to be done within the next month;

Remove centre resonator (apparently they sound great without it)
Wheels repainted in satin black.

Brakes to come after are Porsche 986 Brembo fronts and standard rears refurbed.

Nice. Always great to see what you're up to :D

Although seeing how quickly you jumped into it, I wonder how long you'll leave the above mentioned setup untouched...

I jumped on it quick to get it modded and complete and forget about it. This WONT be getting another set of wheels.

Wheels go in for satin black paint on Monday, exhaust mods the week after and Porsche Boxter Brembo front calipers purchased this morning.

Talledega's back from the painters today in satin black. All badges in matt/satin black with a very close metallic grey vinyl wrap under the rear one.

Oem GTI side skirts and alloy pedals also arrived from Germany. Pics do it no justice.
