Good work! The blue sticker from the wind deflectors is easily removed. I used a little rubbing alcohol to remove the adhesive after pealing it off.

Genuinely think a red ED30 is the best Mk5!

Really nice example!

Fitted some of mandys paddle shifts today. they look good and great quality, but not sure they suit the steering wheel lol.

non res milltek mid section came to swap with my resonated one. think i've changed my mind though.

Front brake pads were squeeking a bit and a bit low so just got them changed for some pagid pads which will do me for what i need them for.

In the next months or 2 i think am going to change the rear bumper for an r32 one and change the milltek backbox. and some 20mm lowering springs probably eibach springs. then that will be about it.

next year its due the cambelt and waterpump change. i wanted to change the cam follower just now, so i might just get the rest done while its in.

looks well smart mate. did you just get the rear bumper and get it sprayed. much did it all cost you if you don't mind me asking.

Nige can sell you the rear section of the R32 exhaust or the complete system if you wish to. He's the owner of BCS Powervalve company (if I'm not mistaken). Great quality products, better than Milltek from what everyone says. My mechanic didn't know BCS and he loved it when he saw the TBE on my Ed. 30. The welds and the fitment are spot on.

I didn't even click on when i seen the bcs in the name.

yeah i've heard bcs are great. i already have a milltek system so probably wouldn't change the full system anytime soon. can i mate a bcs backbox to a miltek section. sure nige can tell me lol.

Thats really handy then i didn't really know where to start with it.

I'm sure Nige can sort you out. BCS exhausts are 3'' all the way and for what I know, Milltek are 2,75'' after the cat. Your system might need an adaptor but should be easy to arrange.
