  • Irish MK5 Jetta

    Hi Everyone,

    I'm new to the forum and website, just registered today and thought it would be a good idea to introduce myself on here.

    I'm from Ireland and currently drive a 2008 MK5 Volkswagen Jetta 1.9TDi. This is my daily driver and is a work in progress at the same time.

    I bought the car about a year ago and have done a few small things to it since, with a lot of plans of bigger jobs to come.

    It currently has a full custom black leather interior with Bentley Diamond Stitching.

    It has also been through quite a few sets of wheels but currently running on a set of Rotiform IND rep/style wheels until finances allow for proper 3 pieces wheels.

    Other things I've done in the past year are U.S Spec front smooth chrome grill, retro-fitted front fogs, removed tow bar and upgraded the head unit to a RNS510 unit.

    The next thing on the list is air suspension and it is booked in for the week starting May 2nd, and I should be collecting it again on the 7th May. It's getting AirLift Slam struts all-round and AirLift 3P Management with 3/8" airlines, 5 Gallon tank and a single compressor. It's also getting a professional boot-build done too, but the details of that are being kept quiet until it's complete.

    Then the next thing on the list will be R32 Headlights and then a color-coded Edition30 Front Splitter.

    And currently the last thing on the list is an exhaust set-up, which might include a GLI rear valance, but no doubt, there will be other parts added to this list.

    I will get pictures uploaded later when I finish work and I would love to hear everybody's opinions, good or bad, as it's all taken as creative criticism.

    Thanks

      Hi DutchieSaxo,

      Sorry for the slow reply, having a bit of bother getting pictures uploaded to Photobucket, but have that working now.

      Here's a photo of the Jetta how it sits at the Minute. I won't clog this Into up with tons of pictures, instead I'll start a build thread and stick them all in there and post the link here.

      Thanks

        Hello all,

        I'm new here, but I've been a car guy since I was a kid. I just bought the suspension upgrade that i wanted for my car, and I'm looking to save up for 3 peice wheels. I'm just here to learn more. Peace.
