Hi guys. I'm a new member with a new Scirocco. I've been reading through the forum lately in anticipation of my new wheels and I've learned a lot about potential mods and some tips, so thanks!
Here are some pics of my reflex silver Scirocco 2.0 TSI DSG. I just got her this weekend and I am in crazy in love . I'm very happy with her! She's got satnav, pdc, bluetooth.
I've ordered a Scirocco R rear bumper with the R-Line diffuser, votex front lip and side skirts which I'll be fitting asap. I wanted the R side skirts but my dealership quoted me over R12,000 for them (£890!) and that is before spraying so yeah right. The front grills I'll be spraying piano black. I'm still undecided between Revo and APR for stage 1 but leaning towards Revo? Hmmm
That's all I have cash for right now but I am looking for a nice set of 19's to put on, along with some H&Rs or Eibachs springs. Coilovers will have to wait. Anyway here she is:

Re: Sensorei's new ride - Scirocco 2.0 TSI DSG (MY2012)
Hi, I'm new here too.
one thing I've learned is that is better don't ask at dealership for anything... £££ you get crazy with prices
my rear bumper R cost me 200€ and diffuser R 100€, how mutch usually it cost there?
I've 3 friends with revo and one of them the boost has broken and other one it makes weird things, 2/3 fail!
I think that the problem is that REVO squeeze more the motor and APR recommends not to increase many hp
also ensure that they have no failures. this is what I have understood
I think I'll choose APR. I could talk with them with other scirocco owners and we did some tests on 122cv, 160cv and 20hp during 6 driving hours and 200 increased to 260 and it worked so great!
I try to test on my scirocco but I couldn't because since 2010 those cars have the antituning and unlock that shit has a cost and testing were free that day.
See u and welcome

I have H & R and is lower than before enough to be springs.
good idea and good buy because of their prices
From germany to Barcelona in 2 weeks, only 161€
if you want to be more low, you have to buy a suspension like KW Weitec VMaxx ... But H&R Springs are well

I haven't seen many silver rocs. Infact I have only seen 2 since they first come out. Looks good though

Re: Sensorei's new ride - Scirocco 2.0 TSI DSG (MY2012)
I am in South Africa and prices for parts are ridiculous. My price from VW here for the R rear bumper was £500 and the diffuser £185! That's scary about the Revo issues. I haven't seen problems like that here with Revo GTi MK6 or Scirocco. Got a link to a pic of your car?javirocco wrote:Hi, I'm new here too.

Thanks. I have only seen silver R's on the road. The colour wasn't my first choice but I do like it.whiteDevil_170 wrote: I haven't seen many silver rocs. Infact I have only seen 2 since they first come out. Looks good though

Revo is a very big company, in Spain there are also a lot of points and here in Barcelona there is Leading distributor center. perhaps there are others without problems but with APR I haven't heard bad comments.
I hAve some pics, I've created an account yesterday and introduced myself, find me at showroom or
