Re: Joe's Facelift Rocco R [Wheel Teaser]
Only thing to update is VW have replaced the 2 front LED Indicators under Warranty, arrived and after sitting in the waiting area for 30 minutes told they couldnt do it on a Saturday because they need to remove the front bumper
So anyway brought it back another weekday and they finally sorted it out (Along with some petrol for wasted journey!)
Then after FAR too much umming and arring i finally decided what size rubber im going to mount on the 19x9.5J wheels!
Which are revealed below.....
Cast13 RB1 19x9.5J et35 - Rubber Ordered and awaiting delivery!!! 245/35/19
The rest of the images from Test fitting (Poor Quality )
Hopefully have them fitted soon!
Next on the list of items to get
- Kerscher Splitter
- Boca Designs Rear Diffuser
- Downpipe
- Wrap a few things
Then cool off for abit
Anyway... stay tuned!

Re: Joe's Facelift Rocco R - Update Page 2
Without a doubt, in my opinion this is the nicest facelift Rocco i have seen so far
Regarding rear diffuser, are you really set on the Boca one?
I have found today a really interesting diffuser which i haven't seen so far:

If you have a better link that includes all the 3 versions, please share it
Not to complicate even more, but you could consider also a mid exhaust diffuser - haven't seen any facelift with mid exhaust

Re: Joe's Facelift Rocco R - Wheels Fitted + Images
So after having a few more days of sunshine on the weekend i decided to get out and take some pictures after a few tweaks to the Rocco
Firstly i ordered some Cast13 Chrome Gold and Silver Center Caps
Then added a few ILOVEBASS Worldwide stickers just behind the rear window
And lastly because i was rubbing quite abit on the front i downsized from 245/35 to 235/35... Now i get no scrubbing and even lowered 10mm more!!
Also Rear has 3 1/2 degrees camber dialled, just got to keep an eye on tyre wear as its quite aggressive for daily!! may ease it off abit
Anyway i hope you like the photo's, i have lots more which i may upload at a later date as this is already picture heavy!!

Few exterior things like diffuser and splitter but next main thing on the list is Power/Handling!imwithstupid wrote:Any more plans for this Joe?
Debating which downpipe to go for Ive had a quote from EMP Performance for a fully fitted 3" downpipe inc sports cat for £600 which i think is pretty good?
Then im looking at the APR Remap but the switchable map features arent available on the later Scirocco R models Also alloy control arms (Already got anti-lift kit)... the list goes on really

Best looking facelift R makes mine look like a basic bitch keep the photos coming can't wait to see what this becomes. I'd love to see a cheeky video of the sound of the mid resonator delete, was it expensive?

Also a lot of people are starting to fit the facelift bumpers/headlights ect.. to a pre-facelift which is just cheatingaaz_R wrote:Best looking facelift R makes mine look like a basic bitch keep the photos coming can't wait to see what this becomes.
