think once the wheels are done. ill probably make my custom splitter i been talking about for some long maybe the rear diffuser too if i get time. i think that will be it then
booked in to AKS on the 1st for a sachs clutch and ABS pressure fix which is obviously costing me an arm and a leg as you can imagine.
ill probably wait until the next thing goes wrong and uprate that or trade it for a 120d convertible or TT TDI. want a diesel next as its becoming extremely hard to keep the seat going. luckily i only do less than 10 miles a week for my own use.

p.s i cant decide on the wheels like you i quite like the gold as its different. any other colours you can think? ill shop it
p.p.s im not sure on the grey with the grey graphic. problem is my car isnt black when the sun is out its more purple.

today been thinking about my alloy colours some more and was worried between the black/purple colour of my car.
so did a little research
so here is a black car with gold.
but then i found this bronze on black
so based on the above you get
bronze
gold

time for an update
stayed like Previous for months and then had a choice spend more money or sell up. decided to spend more cash lol
filter was cleaned and the trip commence down to AKS for the fitting
Also had an APR HPFP installed
continued down to APR for Stage 2+ Software
just sprayed my APR Badge to match the rest of the chrome work on my car shadow chrome.
think i can say im the first one with a shadow chrome APR badge in the WORLD (do with a Jeremy Clarkson voice)
fitted to the car i know i know swirl marks it needs a good clean and polish
Then popped to my mates and we made some ramps to get teh car in the air. 2 breeze blocks and 3m of 2 x 8. tapped the splitter in place and drilled the first hole
finished and back in the underground or home
decided to let of some steam by cleaning the car properly
clay bar, Wax Polish and magic black spray polish. also added a new APR Sticker to the car aswell
Bought my self a Rear diffuser Next. didnt want to go Cupra R Style as i didnt want Centre Exit exhaust. Triple R was making one but it was taking tooooo long so ordered my self a Lester one. Believed to be the First in the UK... probably because im the only mug to spend so much cash on plastic lol
so i have bought my self a Lester Rear Diffuser as i cant wait for Triple R's one anymore.
Unboxing
pictures temp fitted to see what its like
Sprayed it Gloss black in the end for a good colour match
fitted my lester diffuser today.
another good clean. clay bar and Waxed then polished.
