Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Branches Southeast Pimp my wife

...'s car! Help me trick out my wife's Golf. Go to www.dubmodder.com and pull up a MK4 Golf Tornado Red. This is my best version:


Oettinger front valence and full kit
Kamei grill (which is on the way!)
Boser hood
Smoked E-code headlights, turn signals, and bumper lights
19" Audi A8 wheels
M3 mirrors
full black tint
full drop suspension
Audi TT antenna



So let's see what you guys come up with. It's just got to be a red MK4 Golf, pimp it out however you want.

That is pretty PIMP right there,classy kinda pimp....any engine mods on the way?

I think you have a winner.

K&N short ram and Neuspeed heat sheild is on the way. I'm gonna get a new Rabbit emblem for the grill instead of the Kamei 'E'.

Hey Eric, how about a set of those Audi A6 rims from the 4.2L V8 version from a couple years ago? Their an indented 5 spoke, polished and frankly some of the best lookin' rims ever

I dunno, I sat next to an older BMW 740iL with 18"x8.5"s and it made me happy.


See, I just can't decide to go with smaller (16"-17") light-weight wheels, or super pimp mode with 18"-19"s.

Well Eric you've got quite a dilema now don't you. If I had to pick I'd go with a set of 18's with some BFG KDW's or those Goodyear Eagle F1's. Those tires are between 280-300 on the treadwear side, so they'll wear good and have a good "AA" traction rating and "A" temp rating. Not only that, but they perform in dry and wet (rain in your case!). The car is a cruizer more than a carver right, so I don't see the need for those small, light weight rims, just my .02 cents worth. Now, which car are you leaning towards bringing or are we going to be graced with BOTH of them

I'd like to bring 'em both; Beauty and the Beast.


The problem is (bigger than wheel size) is our anniversary is that Saturday, the 14th. It's gonna take some sweet-talking to get to go all 3 days anyway. I know we'll have to dip out for a while on Saturday to go be romantic and stuff. We'll see how things unfold closer to Dragon Time.



So let's see here:

Cruizer or carver?
Golf GLS is a super cruizer, 19"+
Golf GLS is a cruizer, 18"
Golf GLS is a cruizer/carver, lightweight 17-18"
Golf GLS is a carver, lightweight 17"
Golf GLS is a super carver, lightweight 16"
Wreck it, who cares?

I went with the 3rd choice because its a great balance
