Hey guys, finally decided to start up a build thread of my EK4. Nothing special but would be great to hear feedback from others and always happy for people to throw any ideas my way 
So to start off with, here's the spec of the day i bought her:
150K miles
weitec coilovers,
majority of suspension components have been polybushed,
a pretty nasty looking B pipe with some equally as bad welds throughout it with a spoon n1 rep silencer,
apexi air filter,
go faster holes in the front bumper too!
Not the greatest spec out there but i have known of the car for quite a long period of time and friends with one of the previous owners and know how well the engine performs.
Here's a couple pics of when i got it.
Very happy with it. Made very good power going by a previous dyno print i found with some of the history.
The shell isn't in the best condition as it has its fair share of dents, and i have come to find that getting panels in this particular color is proving very difficult indeed so once the funds are all in order, i shall repair and spray the existing ones.
Since buying, i have added a few bits i have built up to give it my own touch. may not be to everyone's taste but hey lol. i have added the following:
Toyo R1R tyres,
tegiwa canards,
2.25" exhaust with a custom fit oem DC5 back box, (tight fit but works fine)
a cheapy intake but better than the apexi as it was damaged and filthy,
kode dished steering wheel.
I was fairly happy with everything untill today when i went outside and discovered this.....
not happy at all. only cleaned it a couple hours ago, went to get in to pop to the shop and noticed it. currently looking for someone to replace it for me.
lastly, heres a pic of how she used to look back when my friend owned it and before all the nice parts were removed.
cheers guys!!!
