I just really love 3 door cars :( I can't buy wind deflectors either because I think they look wrong on a 5 door.. Cryyy  :sad1:

Yeah I know what you mean about the wind deflectors, I was patient and waited for the perfect one to come up when I got mine it was the only 3 door, steel grey that was a manual in the nation!
Didn't want a DSG :)

There are so many parts like air intakes, DVs, coilovers, exhausts, clutches etc it's so hard to find out what is really the best I have decided on BCS power flow exhaust and a Revo ceramic air intake with heat shield still researching all the rest lol

Hey Kieran - great car, you'll be made welcome any time you want to stop by and have a chat about the Powervalve  :wink: systems...
Cheers
