Looking good :santa:

I think that is possibly the first "murdered out" ED30 :happy2:

I do like the idea of a full matte wrap  :party:

@ NB07 - Strictly been on V Power since the Surrey RR!  :innocent:
@ Greenouse - your car was the inspiration for the brakes (not yet fitted) and the different colour splitter  :happy2:

Hi All - thought I better update my build thread as I've been neglecting it for too long!
Here's a quick pick of the car as it is now:




I finally got around to washing, polishing and waxing it after getting inspiration from the detailing section  :grin:
Since going Revo Stage1, it's had an S3 intercooler, twintercooler, S3 brakes all round, Autotech HPFP, Forge Twintake, WALK, Eibach ARBs front and rear, Resonated Milltek TBE, Koni FSDs and is now Revo ST2+ :jumping:



Still to come is fitting Hurdy's beautiful sub box and amp. I've also got Rainbow components for the doors which will all be fitted leading up to Xmas - along with sound-proofing all over :smiley:.
That's all for now folks - hope you like  :drinking:

Love the look. The lip works well with the rims.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

The 'R' caliper pad springs were bought off Beddie (I think you can also get them off ebay) and they only come in black. The brakes are S3 ones (same as the Golf R) so now with the springs they are effectively Golf R brakes :happy2:

Easy to colour the splitter black on a light car, but tricky to make it look good on a black car!

Your calipers look a slightly different shape to mine.. yours have a tail on either end!

Yeah the S3/Golf R calipers are a different shape to the Cupra/R32 ones - not sure why but they use the same discs and pads so not sure why they are a different shape  :confused:.
