Hey, So did a couple more bits to the car today..

Got the lower middle grille off (thanks Matt), the intercooler looks ace now.. Wasn't really a fan of this look before but I think it suits the 'look' of my car..

Im going to make a custom lower open grill for the car as at the moment it looks like something is missing.. Im planning on cutting away all of the honey comb interior of the grill, smoothing the surround and having it painted matte black.. Lots of work for something so small but it should be worth it IMO.

Also installed a set of LED number plate bulbs.. These are 6000k colour and match my Xenons great! Really freshens up the rear end to be honest.. Didn't get a chance to get pics as I was busy charging the battery after running it out with a car hoover that plugs into the cigarette lighter! Well.. It could have had something to do with me forgetting to turn off the headlights for 20mins whilst I was cleaning it also.. Durrrrrrr! Anyways.. All good now and she lives again!

Ill get some pics up in the next couple of days!

No worries for the grille help, It's what the community is all about.  :drinking:

It's great you consider the aesthetics as mush as the performance. :happy2:

Not quite yet..  :wink:

I got them from a guy on www.vagoc.co.uk Ill see if I can sort out a group buy if people are going to be interested.. Mine look great IMO.

Also.. Today I had the exhaust changed a little.. I have gone to a straight pipe front section, removing two large silencer boxes, and played around with the middle box a little.. It now sounds mental!!! Very loud, very aggressive, huge pops and bangs.. Mega! haha..  :laugh:
