ME!

New to the forum, and hoping to obtain information and knowledge for my 2004.5 GTI 1.8T

I'm not looking to go crazy with it, but I do want to do suspension upgrades, some body/cosmetic upgrades, and a couple simple power adders.

Currently its pretty much stock. Blue with lightly tinted tail lights, alpine head unit with Ipod direct connect, along with premium sound and a 12" Infinity Kappa Perfection sub with a bridged 2 channel 1000w kenwood amp. All leather, 17" wheels, and thats pretty much about it.

Welcome! Sounds like you know a bit about cars.
If i were you i would put bags (suspension) on your car it would run anywhere from 1000 to 3000 buck. Good luck with your car and let me know if you need any help

By body mods I hope you don't mean fiberglass ricey body kits...

Not at all, I'm talking maybe a GLI front Lip, different rear lower valance, maybe some 20AE sideskirts, but thats about it. I'm going for a cleaner look than anything.
