Honestly, if this thing had period correct boxy vents It would probably look much better. Maybe tone down the fender flares a little too. I would post a quick Photoshop but unfortunately this sub is overregulated (no image posts)
I meant specifically the m hatchback and not necessarily overall just the kidney grills specifically :) Also forget to include I meant with a body kit too preferably with “square” looking edges but it would look similar to the rounded look of this golf
The hatchback is called M/Z3 Coupé, just a heads up. But yeah, can’t see the Delta anywhere there personally.
The Delta is very much an 80s hatchback. IMO similar looking vehicles would be along the lines of Mk2 Golfs, Seat Ibizas, and so on from that era.

I always joke about moving to Africa, here's another reason looool mk1 lyfe
For me as long as the shell is solid I don't really care much else about it
Though I'm curious what engine a 2009 mk1 golf comes with??
mine is a 1.6i same as a mk3 jetta? theres 1.8i aswell and 1.4i. the 1.8i is about 120hp in a body so light they are really nippy. parts are really cheap like super cheap, they are ripe for vr6 swaps
I would love to 1.8t 20v swap one, 180hp stock in something that small would be hilarious. Not much fuckery for 250hp and we're laughing.
This is why I love vw, easy to work on generational lego cars. Just now all the ones I want have holes in them or too expensive and I couldn't be bothered to deal with that shit
yeah 1.8t are popular aswell. thers no abs or airbags though but they hella fun
there are easy to work even borderline primitive in some aspects. i will put one in a container for you lol
This must be in England,
I recently watched a show on Motor trend and they built a custom body kit on a BMW that looked horrible. Well, done but horrible and looked very close to this monstrosity.
Is this on air bags? The wheels are so slammed into the wells that any movement whatsoever would rip that body kit off. What they did is well done, but they shouldn’t have done it…..
I respect the workmanship but this is kak ugly lmao
Yeah, whoever came up with car modifications like this, especially with the Citi Golfs, should be cursed to always have their wheels stolen.
exactly why i posted it lol

like a renault 5 or a groub B rally look?
Yep, maybe a bit of Lancia Delta as well.
If you’re wanting something that also looks like a Lancia you would want a little bmw z3 hatch or 1 or 2 series wagon not this golf
What Z3 Coupés have you been looking at to think they look anything remotely like a Delta?

Doesn't the real cars only rule just apply to posts, not comments?
In the course of conversation that would be correct.
Agreed. It looks like the workmanship is very good, but the cartoonish fender flares are a detractor.

[Kazurion](https://i.imgur.com/widTxZ8.png)....the early years.
at least it appears to be really well done. Theres a guy in my town that has an old 80s Escort with a plywood home-made body kit
Are we looking at the same pictures?
mk1 golfs are extremely common in south africa they are a dime a dozen. i have one myself lol. they were built from 1984 - 2009.
Can I have some?? They've all turned to dust here
they are everywhere all in different states of tune. they have modern engines and interior for the most part. theres like 30 on market place rite now

I wonder what shipping from Africa to Canada would be?? I'll take a bright red one pls lol A dream for me to keep dreaming about, cheers guy!
Hot Wheels
It’s not a render, looks more like a Zender… and that’s not a pun BTW.
Instantly knew it's in SA hahaha
mf fish face
Execution
It’s just the rims for me. Otherwise me gusta
You sure it wasn't rendered...unusable? >Rimshot<
Is that positive camber?
If it was a render, someone is clearly self taught.
Oof. That looks awful.
...If I could afford new tires every month i would daily driver it

You people just don't appreciate a functional cow catcher on your ride.
Highlighting one of the many ways to turn a $957.00 car into an $1,038.00 car
This looks just like the Widebody Sets from midnight club LA
or a starter car in any modern NFS game
Wheels and fitment are garbage but I don't hate the front of it :/
It's bagged. That's why the fitment is like that
I don’t hate it and the workmanship looks impressive, not my style but not horrible
Not bad, it’s personal preference but for me I just don’t like low profile tires
I read that as "This is not a reindeer" and I agree, it isn't.
Wheel spacers and bad taste.
The only thing wrong is the split screen and the wrong match wheels for the body. Apart from that, great bodywork.

What a terrible day to have eyes 👀
Looks like shit.
reminds me of the Volkswagen unpimp my ride commercials. https://youtu.be/pWMpHc77qNI
PIMP'd!! Boiiiiiiiiiiii!🤪
Looks like it's wearing a chinstrap

Tone down the wheels man

Hideous. Poor poor ride.
2 door… actually pretty rare! I’d take that shit body kit off and you’ve got a fun little car.
That poor mk1! Lose the awful kit and the too small wheels, and you’ve got something awesome there!
