Suspension and exhaust was fitted by star performance and the rest myself.

^^ That is definately the VWR splitter mate, I think it is made by Rieger  :happy2: ^^

....My understanding is that the VWR splitter is made out of stronger material than the Rieger (ask Joe!). Extremely similar appearance though.

Black splitter on a black car means you don't need to paint it but if you preferred to it wouldn't matter about stone chips because it's a plastic.

Any tyre rubbing?

No tyre rubbing at all Robin, even when the car is fully loaded and its sitting on its A#s.

A few people have said the VWR splitter is made from stronger material, would be good to see them together.

the VWR one is stronger, also confirmed by mark @ VWR. ive snapped 2 of mine.  :sad1:

Black splitter on a black car can be painted but it has to be primed first and this makes stone chips very visible!! trust ive done it!  :laugh:

Its coming together well. FMIC should be here tomorow so will get that fitted on saturday. Next on the list has got to be the HPFP and also big brake setup.
Have been looking into the upgrade for the PCV. Still unsure on what to do with this one.
Also got a new votex splitter and bumper. waiting on the new open grills etc to come in for that.

Track season next year will be good fun me thinks

Looks nice, i liiike!

One question, how come the mk5 in a few pics of people's cars, seems to sit lower at the back than the front, surely ud want it the opposite way.

the pic of the mk4 for example, just seems to have its nose in the air slightly n looks a bit odd!? is that just the way golfs are? wouldnt it look/handle better with either the same height each end or lower at the front n higher at the back?!

or of course it could all be an illusion n im actually talking sh!te! haha
