I swapped the wheels from the monza to the monza 2's 18's, as soon as I got chance, but had probs with the finish so got them swapped to the S3's just recently.  Had the rear bumper colour coded after my wife reversed into a wall !! She did me a favour in the end as it looks loads better  :jumping:
Got the mirrors painted at the same time - wife not too pleased !!  :laugh:
Hoping to change the front badge to black or carbon and the mask, cant decide if to do it or not, other mods poss to follow  :smiley:

Going to Awesomes anniversary do next sunday hope to see some of you there  :smiley:

Jasey, looks nice, different too.

Have you taken the wing mirror covers from a silver Mk5?

Welcome - I joined last week aswell. :drinking:

It was a obviously a very good week for Tornado Red newcomers!

Did you get the original rear bumper/valance painted red/black or is it a new one with a carbon insert?

As you said, it does look much better.
