My aim was to make a mini version of my T5 that I had just done !
So off with the bumpers on with some DRL led headlights, bought a CSR Touran bumper from Germany, and filled and smoothed the headlight washers out then cut and fitted fitted up the mesh grilles as they are not supplied ! a rear barndoor spoiler, a badgeless grille, a new back primered bumper.
Test fitted the front bumper turns out a bit of a b**tard as usual nothing fits however got there in the end, then couple of base coats of primer and white mirrors coded and then into the oven for a bit, then mask up lay on the matt black, bake and a bit of a refit and here !
Next Vmaxx adjustable sus and a set of 7x17" Fuch replicas with 215x45x17 tyres!
Test fitted down as low as possible, completely un-drivable 120mm!
So raised it up again ended up with an 80mm drop works perfect with speed humps etc...!
This has taken about 15 hours now over the period of a week i'm now looking forward to the next time when money and family permits!!! but for now my wife wants me to start on her Beetle V5 but thats a job for another forum!!
The next things when I get the chance chrome side Bars, Mk5 Golf GTi seats on Touran base consoles, carpet lined, modified rock and roll bed from a T5 and some sort of sound system involving 2x12" subs watch this space
Thanks for looking hope you enjoyed
