Karlos's rocco

yeeeeah i like that, did you just simply put orange bulbs in or did you have to modify the light unit aswell? orange film wrap ?

Yeah just put orange bulbs in I had laying about.
Ones from a mk4 golf or bora the bulbs in the wings for the indicators.

Awesome mate !!

Thanks I'm well pleased with the exhuast and how it sounds.
Does yours pop/burble much?

Just need to prep the brakes now.

Actually to start with it wasn't that poppy but since doing 1000miles it's much louder n pops now!

You should try heat wrapping it, it's a bit of a pain to do but mine pops straight away.

Finally got round to ordering the front splitter. Gonna be attempting fitting and red vinyl strip round the bumper tomorrow night.

Good to hear mate, really sets the car off.
I found the clips in the middle a bit fiddly so I put the spreader in and then a self tapping screw instead of the plastic ones they supply.
Hope it's helpful.

No worries mate. I'm sure it will all become clear when I line it up tomorrow. [emoji53]

So purchased the discs the other day, they are tanking huge.

Xbox controller for scale

Just need to get the hoses and spacers now.

So eventually got all the parts and fitted my brakes yesterday.
So very close to the wheels







Got some "R" darker tint rear lights as well, can't really tell in from the picture though.
Left one is normal and the right is the darker one.



Just a random pic

Looking good! You need some different wheels to show off them brakes though!
In regards to the bi-xenons the law is the exact same as noted in Portugal for the UK.

Also.. if you've purchased TTRS oem disks they're prone to warping so I'd watch out for that......

Love the silver / black look! Nice one!

Thanks.

Yeah they are on my 'To Do' list as well as coilovers.

Yeah heard about them warping, I don't do many miles anymore so hope they last a bit longer before they start.

How easy was your front splitter to install just been looking at them, would you recommend it

Was pretty easy, you have to drill a couple of holes on the middle part of the bumper.
But they supply the clips, I had a bit of trouble getting a couple to fit so I put a self tapper in.

It definitely sets the car off (well I think so)

Hope it's understandable, best to get it on a ramp or take the bumper off.

Cheers for that might get one soon

No worries.
It's easy to line up as you use some original screw holes.
