bungy 2 Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 I like the wider look but really don't like body kits. Subtle arch extensions formed from steel float my boat. Just wondering what others think and asking those that know, are there any good mk3 wide bodies kicking around? Link to post Share on other sites
Scaley 0 Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 I suppose theres always the konigsedder widearch kit but I think they look a bit dated now!Ive not seen much wide kits for the 3 to be honest, custom fab work seems the only way!Its what Im going to be doing on mine, a bit like a toned down version of the W12 golf!

J5KE F 0 Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 I always used to love the reiger rs kit but looking back i'm glad i never went down the buying it route! Best i have ever seen was custom arch extensions on a bmw, much better than a body kit, subtle and mahoosively wide! Link to post Share on other sites
cabrioman 6 Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 another greg the bakers creation by the looks of it ??!! would be good to see it on a mk3 thou .... Link to post Share on other sites
The Monk 50 Posted March 28, 2010 Report Share Posted March 28, 2010 Jake, the Reiger RS was a bodykit I nearly bought before I attended my first meet. I still think it looks uuber sexy. Link to post Share on other sites
vr6stormt 0 Posted March 29, 2010 Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 this was an idea i have toyed with since ive owned the v r same as you mark dont like body kits i did take mine for a quote to have the body fabbed to make it an inch or so wider on each side but it would sort of look like a mk3 version of the mk2 wide arch synchro i would have a go myself but it would need to come off the road for a while maybe the the next time we meet we should throw some ideas at it?

matty.vrt 120 Posted March 29, 2010 Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 I have been thinking the same thing as you carnt get any decent tyre size on the vr 235 r888s all round would be ideal. Link to post Share on other sites
jesterwalker69 0 Posted March 29, 2010 Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 Ummm is it wrong that there are a couple of bits off that site i actually like?! One of which is the Rieger RS kit (except the front bumper!) Link to post Share on other sites
matty.vrt 120 Posted March 29, 2010 Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 Totaly wrong lol Link to post Share on other sites
jesterwalker69 0 Posted March 29, 2010 Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 I may add that none of the stuff i like is particularly radical lol - except that Carzone kit, i think that would look smashing on my VR... lol Link to post Share on other sites
legvw 0 Posted March 29, 2010 Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 This is a kit i'd have, kit or just the car! But been reading up and there was only 2 or 3 kits ever made, shame really.http://www.faltdach.net/vwgolfa59.htm Link to post Share on other sites

I reckon one of those RS4 bumper, wide arch kit and a rear bumper off that site (forgot which one) would look ultra hot! Would be different without resembling some nasty cheap Ukrainian/Kazakhstan Borat mobile Link to post Share on other sites
matty.vrt 120 Posted March 29, 2010 Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 "Borat mobile" I love it Link to post Share on other sites
Mackenzie 6 Posted March 29, 2010 Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 This is my personal fav. I think the black strip at the bottom of the rear bumper needs to be flushed, to look perfect, other than that, i think it looks really smooth. http://www.dietrich-autostyle.de/detail.php?pid=753&car=Golf%203&brand=VW Link to post Share on other sites
Mackenzie 6 Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 The Golf A59 looks quite nice. I would get rid of the door mouldings, to give it abit more of a smoother look. Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Wherry 0 Posted June 11, 2010 Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 Don't know if it's kind of the same thing, but with the earlier mk3 VR6 you had that nasty black trim. Colour coding that seems to make it look wider, at least it does with mine and it still looks standard wich is a bonus! Link to post Share on other sites
