Thanks mate wasnt sure how an "Edition 38" car would go down on here! The air ride was done by Plush Automotive im affraid to say so cant take the compliment!  :P Ive got so much i wanna do with the car but as is always the case £££ restrict me!! Ive been offerd a Mk6 R interior and black headlining and 90% off all the black trim items at a mega cheap price!! And i noticed an interior same as mine but for a 5 door go for £680 in  the classifieds on here, so that may have to get purchased ASAP! But the only down side is going from leather to cloth........

Once my insurance is paid for in december, itl be going in the bodyshop as there are a few dents hear and there as expected on a 7 year old car, the bumper hasnt been repaird properly from a bump i had in march and doesnt join the wings correctly and the headlight brackets are snapped beyond repair, so ive got a new bumper and new headlights to go on along with all the dents/chips being repaird, a new set of amber mirror indicators and some carbon pillars to go on once the bodyworks been sorted! I also wanna change the lower girlles from honey combe ones to the chrome ones, but can never find any for sale!

Ive also changed the rear fog light to one with the clear lense in, so both the boot lights match. Will get a pic tomoro!

Cheers Guys! Yeh Its SarahMk5, mines not a patch on hers.......hence why ive not posted the other pics from that photo shoot lol! Yeh the headlining will look mega just unsure about going from leather to cloth.....even if they or Mk6 R Seats!  :chicken:

Yeh as you can guess i much prefer it in summer!!! I Did have a set of CH Reps but a mate offerd me £100 and the R32 wheels which are genuine, at the time i needed the money and fiquerd that genuine 32 wheels would be worth more if i ever sell.......im open to part ex on some Monza's  :pomppomp:
