2006 VW Golf GTI Mk5 Gets Extensive Aftermarket Treatment
The Golf GTI is currently in its sixth generation, with an R version also available, but the Mk5 version keeps on finding a soft spot in the hearts of many. The vehicle is still being used as an excellent base for tuning projects, and so is the case with the one that you can see in the images below.
The car featured here has modifications that include both exterior and interior upgrades, as well as several performance enhancements. OSIR carbon fiber touches both inside and outside to the tinted windows, an aggressive body kit and a knock out audio system, this GTI has all it takes to turn heads. Performance upgrades include a APR Stage II kit and various Eurojet Racing parts, while Brembo brakes are fitted to provide the necessary stopping power. The car sits on 19-inch SSR Werfen GT-03 wheels wrapped in Falken tires. The car belongs to Peter Tronset.
