front splitter is going to be replaced soon, ther was no splitter on it when i got her as she was a mess.
the milage SAY'S 42,000 but i dont think that is entirly true for a GSI with her age and no History.
She's going to a friend soon who has a 400 BHP VW corrado built by himself ( and others ) he's gonna compression test it and see if the engine is worth tuning, if so then i'm gonna tune it ( broster and JR style ) or if not then XE or LET route. so i have plans for her

the colour change is no more due to money but will be staying blue but will be touched up. gonna go for black or anthrite (sp) wheel, would love some comp mo's like robins in gun metal grey.
a guy on mig OJ sells the mantzels now, i think he has one batch left to sell and then he is stopping.
what you think on the lights then sam??
this wil be ready for show season and nicely tuned
