Seats sets the car off perfectly. Specced these seats in my MK5 R32 and loved them.
Good luck with the new car.

Tiny little addition to the car, but a bit of a must for me as find standard paddles are tiny.

Let us know what you think of the brake upgrade?
I see Forge sets are very reasonably priced so good to see if paying the extra for AP or the likes is worth it.

I had the forge set on my stage 2 rocco 2.0 TSI and they are amazing. So responses, very powerful, and really good progressive braking. Worlds apart from standard and just uprated disc and pads.
Never got any brake fade at all and they were used hard on occasions. (Not on a public road of course)

Nice motor - but personally preferred the stock "R" alloys.
