As this thread seams to have wandered... On a MkI: Wheels over 15". Eye brow spoiler. Clipper kits, in fact any body kits. On a MkII: Colour coded plastic arches and sills. Lexus rear lights. DTM exhaust. Jap style exhausts. Any rear diffuser/splitter. Smoothed boots and "Frenched" number plates (let into the rear bumper). Jetta front ends. Rallye front ends with small bumpers (seperately not a problem). Any non VAG spoiler. Any non OE wing mirrors. Goes without saying for any car, but any dodgy paintwork or bad smoothing that has most probably cracked. Oh and anything that has been done badly, whether it's an engine install or coloured dials. If it ain't neat I ain't interested.
Ok i've got a good one black insulating tape over the headlamps creating a home made crappy bad boy look there's a mk2 on ebay at the moment with it Total RUBBISH!!! (Although it makes me when i see it on a nova)
after an afternoon of thought, the worst mod was carried out in wolfsberg.... turning that pretty little coupe into a hatchback
Over colour coding/smoothing onANY car if it isnt dont properly and does'nt suit the end product!! 1000 wheels an a 300 car!! (Obvious) Home made tints on lights or windows!! People who ar'nt realistic about their cars!!("It did 150 on the M6 the other day" says the owner of a 1.3 Ryder) And finally them poo3 rear lights for the Mk2 with the black back that stick out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Never seem em look right yet!!!!
On a mk2.... Crystal style lighting, De-badged single headlight grilles, eye brow spoilers,VR6 chin spoilers, wing vents, G60 arches, badges used from different/newer models , italic number plates, flushed tailgates, stainless exhaust heatshields, single wipers...... All IMO... Pity Ive had most of them on my old car at one time or other...
Anyone remember the massive Hella orange/red tailgate reflector for mk2s? Went where the number plate sits? Proper gash. My car used to have one apparently, previous owner ripped it off and took a bit of paint off the tailgate 'ring sticker sorted one side out Edited by: GVK
paint... my dad used to have one on a manta,it said manta,not gti... seen a couple on ebay recently for mk1's neil.
