First of all...I love your car. One of the nicest R's I have ever seen  :rolleye: The wheels would not be my first choise but ETTO.

There is only one way to go with the grill from me. The grill in the last picture of your post is lush, the only thing I would change about it is the small dirty two badge, I would keep that chrome but apart from that it is by far the nicest front end I have seen on an R32 anyhwere.

As for your performance mods...please tell me you are going to be strapping on a huge turbo on there to shut all these bloody Edition 30 owners up  :confused: :love:

cheers dude, the wheels are very marmite, but that's cool, i bought them cos I like them as you said  :happy2: if it wasn't for the speedbumps and bad roads in the UK she would be on these:



and i still might, the cost is epic in comparison to my current rims...and i mean off the chart to buy and fit these and make them roll without hassle, never say never though  :wink:

lol, simon at RK Engineering keeps asking me.....no...pestering me to use my R32 to guinea pig a new supercharger setup, if i do he'll give me big discounts as it would be to assist in developement hand in hand with the Dutch tuners VR6 for the RHD market


..........and give me 600bhp  :scared:

but the moneys massive, and not sure if i want to live with that kind of animal  :grin:

Stop being a girl and get on with it. You need to build your rep again after the ninja incident. 600 neddies will go some way to getting some respect back.  :evilgrin:

I know of a place where you can get high quality 19' reps of those Merc AMG rims pictured in your post. I don't know if you are interested in reps but pm me if you want some more info.

As for the charger....what the hell are you waiting for!!!! 600BHP  :drool: :drool: and a lot cheaper than than it normally would be  :rolleye:

You only live once  :happy2:

Good work there.  :wink:

In my humble opinion of course. I think those rims look far better than your current ones.  :innocent: and i like the side skirt.  :happy2:

Your photoshop looks stunning! Definitely do the black stripe on the skirts!!!

Have you also thought about Porsche 997 Turbo reps? Similar kind of design, and they look fecking amazing on a MK5!! See some of the US forums for pics!

P.S. This is my thousandth post...........woooooooooooohooooooooooo  :jumpmove: :jumpmove: :jumpmove: :jumpmove: :jumpmove: :jumpmove: :jumpmove: :jumpmove: :jumpmove: :jumpmove: :jumpmove: :jumpmove: :jumpmove: :jumpmove: :jumpmove: :jumpmove: :jumpmove: :jumpmove: :jumpmove: :jumpmove: :jumpmove: :jumpmove: :jumpmove: :jumpmove: :jumpmove:

....That looks the Dog's Bollox! The black strip in the side skirts relates to the wheel spokes - Looks like a match made in Heaven!

liking the ride mate,

the speakers you put in, the boxes wired up to them, are they amps or cross overs? and i presume they are the 6.5" 17cm speakers?

cheers

so i've been interested in this:



the lower splitter made by Alpil in Japan, but has been way out of my price range.

that said, i have found someone who has got a new fibreglass version for sale:





fiberglass composite version and that sells for $630 + $75 for shipping to UK

so about £495.78

what to do what to do
