Looks great, are the clear indicators staying or are you going for amber ones?

Cheers!  :happy2:

Really nice car! Love the flat bottom steering wheel, that another mod added to my list haha.

About 6 months ago I got one virtually identical, same colour, 140bhp etc its been great for me too, also helped that I was stepping up for a 1.4 207 so the performance leap was massive.

I got a GTI bumper fitted to it pretty much as soon as I got it and like you I was driving around with the fog light warning on for a while!

I just had all my R32 rear bumper and Exhaust arrive in the post last week so I'm looking forward to fitting them soon and I'll put a thread up on here once I've got it done.

Anyway good luck with your modding, look forward to seeing more pics!

Dave, how did you go about the r32 exhaust?

I know it might be a bit frowned upon on here but I bought one of those Bumper + Exhaust combos off Ebay.  I can't really afford to a VW Genuine bumper and something like a Miltek/Custom exhaust at the moment but (although I haven't fitted it yet) the quality of the products look pretty good for their respective costs.  Another reason for not going VW Genuine is trying to find one in my colour (Graphite blue) would take a very, very long time or for me to be very lucky.

Once I've got it all sprayed and fitted I'll put some photos up on here as I'm sure there must be others looking at doing a similar thing.
