ECS Project - VW MK5 GTI Build List
Unpopular opinion: we love the MK5 platform. That's why our MK5 GTI features some insane modifications like our Carbon Fiber Fender Flare kit to tuck the massive custom 3-piece Rotiform wheels under the beautiful composite arches. Our MK5 GTI sits on Airlift Performance suspension to let it lay frame and perfectly kiss the ground with our Carbon Fiber Front Lip. All the upgrades and modifications we've performed on our MK5 GTI are listed right here so you can take some inspiration from our build and execute it on yours!
