My White Golf R32 Project (Non Ford)
Some of you might have seen my Last 2 Projects which were a Wide Arch Ibis white Porsche Cayenne and a E46 M3 that i also painted Ibis White with loads of Carbon Goodies.
Anyways, here is my Current Wee Project.
I have always Fancied an R32 and knew of this one that had seen a fair whack spent on it.
I drove a standard Mk5 R32 and although Quick it was unreal the difference that this Car has compared to the standard R32.
It has Stage 4 APS Conversion which just makes the car so much more responsive with a "claimed" 300BHP
It has some other tastey bits like Coilovers, Big Ass Brakes and the Miltek exhaust etc.
Loving the noise she makes and being white she stands out a fair bit.
The car was Blue but has just been wrapped white and has the Carbon look Roof.
Next plans are to drop the rear suspension a little and fit some better wheels

Cheers Guys.
Stage 4 is:
ECU re-map
Schrick intake camshaft
Schrick exhaust camshaft
Fuel system modification
Cylinder head gas flowing
Sports air filter
High flow race catalytic converter
Miltek Exhaust system from cat back
Lightened flywheel
Sport clutch kit
I have owned a Mk5 Gti aswell and they are a quick car and can be made even quicker my just a remap, but the Noise the R32 makes is bloody ace and worth getting just for the sound alone.
Ill easy take your S1 and some ŁŁŁŁ's against mine when i get bored (that usualy aint long)

How does the cost of a wrap compare to the cost of a decent paint job if you don't mind me asking?

A wrap is about Ł1k.
From past ex expect to pay Between Ł3k and Ł7k for a full colour change.
The wrap is a good short term solution but if your are fussy with your paintwork etc Paiting the car is the best option.
For those that aint fussy and just want a colour change the wrap is ideal.

Nice one, have to agree the 32's do sound lovely!
Will keep an eye on it to see what you do to it, if i've fallen out with the S1 when you get bored we'll see
can't see you wanting a shonky old escort after you've been used to the golf though! haha
