Killer Contest Feature # 2 - Mustard & Pepper

Volkswagen Golf MKIV 1.4 16V Basis 


     Back in the 2K's when Volkswagen decided to funked things up with a unique yellow in it's Mk4 line up. The "Imola Yellow" is the color, that looked good and was selected to be among the three colors to be on the Golf Mk4 "GTI 20th Anniversary Edition", 4200 produced and 25% of the production was Imola yellow.Today at SP we are lucky to come across the same color coded Mk4 of Thierry, a  graphic  designer  /  website developper  who has a very nice  and  tenuous  taste to  tune  his ride.  The  influences  were  mainly  from  the motherland standing in the 4th place in the prestige model generation list of the Golf hierarchy mixed up with some DUB style. The  car is beautifully made, efficient, tasteful like mustard,which was indeed a good base to seasoned up with some pepper. So he managed to get some nice previous Audi RS4 model 17" rims replica painted black (pepper) backup with D2 racing coilovers to get the perfect drop and achieved the Killer look. The stock front bumper was replaced by the  jaw-dropping  "Golf R32"  bumper replica  giving  a more  aesthetic appeal, this is brilliantly done and we simply don't care that it's a four-door Golf. Think of it as a "R32", who gives a damn ?!
