I own a mk5 on a L reg and she was already modified a little bit when I got her so I carried it on and personalised her a bit more what I would say if your car is totally original and never been played with I would leave it As it is I think yours looks good the way it is the nearest thing I would do is to fit a period set of alloys to it as I never have liked wheel trims and may be fit clear side and front indicators I have a spare set if u want to see what they look like and I will be at simply ford in belieu good luck with what ever u decide
-
Any more news or up dates on this yet
-
After spending all that time and money I would go the zetec route so it geos as well as it looks as for the leather route you could carefully strip the cloth get it remade in leather then recover your self there is a bloke some where on here who deos a fantastic job of all things leather good luck will look good when finished
-
We repaired ours on our mk5 as decided with a 2nd hand one we could buying the same problem again well worth the hassle cured every fault

If you click on the link to last years simply ford show you will see a link to the caravan park it's in Christ church
-
Can't remember where but seen one fitted once they do look good you do like your rare bits well done for finding this you found this so sure your find a way of fitting it
-
Since these seem to be like hens teeth have any of you guys looked at other cars that use a similar design that could be cut down or made to fit got to be worth looking at since they seem in demand
-
Very easy to make your own just mask out the reverse lights they do look very good well worth it I would up load a picture but don't how to you may see one if you look at last years show pictures blue mk 5 amalfie blue L reg
-
Looking at the pictures it's a mk 5 and some one as fitted a mk6 front end makes it different I guess
-
If the stitching is gone and the roof is brittle I would treat her to a new mohair roof not cheap but looks fantastic and last for a very long time will finish her of nicely
-
Booked and payed for looking forward to seeing your mk5 this year jont fair play for still coming last year you done well
-

Advice On Fitting Boot Spoiler
in Bodywork Problems
Posted
On our mk 5 we screwed it threw the edge of the boot lid and bonded it on with a sealing adhesive sorry not sure how it works on a mk4 but I would measure a good few times and always screw it don't just stick it on in this day and age it will soon be gone it's worth all the effort though I do love the look of a spoiler good luck
