Looks very nice, liking the Black with grey alloys  :happy2:

Sounds like it'll be a beast with all the mods you've got planned.

Thanks mate, wasn't sure on the colour but its grown on me!

Man thats a hell of a list of mods to go the car. That private plate is awesome man

Cheers mate the list seems to grow each day haha! Cheers buddy took me a while to find a decent one!

Now that is a big list lol.
I might be able to spot you easily with that plate now haha, see that focus all the time.
Who did your wings for you? ( just out of interest)

Haha thats the idea, love having a private plate. Its my uncles ST I'm looking after it for a few months, decent car and LOUD.

Was the Marshall paint and body place, took them a few goes to get it right, but i didn't pay a penny so can't complain.

Yeah I like having a private plate to lol.

Oh is that in greenham park Newbury if so think they did mine and I wasn't happy and had it done again  :fighting:

Looks ace. I had a black gti with anthracite TD 1.2s - great colour combo in my opinion!

Looks lovely this mate, did you just fit spacers to the rear or are they on the front too?

So clean! Looks lovely. Black certainly looks good when polished up. Must get mine sorted soon, especially now the weather is slowly getting better. What polish did you use?

Not had a chance to polish or glaze it yet! The finish you see is just a clean car with some quick detailer :)

HPFP and RS4 Valve fitted.

All ready for the map at R-tech next week! Hoping for over 360bhp.

Car is back from R-tech. Didnt make over 360 but still super happy with it, its rapid and puts power down really well with the traction control and DSG map.

Figures were 355bhp and 390ft/lb

The main restriction was the catback, just doesnt flow well enough. Will swap it out for a full BCS in due course. Just going to enjoy it for a while now get some decent drives under its belt and some memories. Trying to avoid the temptation of looking at RS3s!

DSG drives perfect now its been mapped and Nikki adapted it. Was bit bumpy at first but after a few hundred miles of driving its spot on which has made me happy. Noticed some rust appearing on one of the rear arches which really bums me out, how did VW not sort this.. No way I'm taking it back to VW to get it sorted now though after I've had the work done to it. I avoid the main dealers like the plague. Will pay to get it sorted myself down the line.
