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 :eyepop:

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 :rolleyes: )

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 :D

Anyway... stay tuned!

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:

:D i'm glad you like the diffuser, i only found 2 versions (standard , and one with lower extension).
If you have a better link that includes all the 3 versions, please share it :D

Not to complicate even more, but you could consider also a mid exhaust diffuser - haven't seen any facelift with mid exhaust :D

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 :hyper:

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!! :lol:

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!! :D

Few exterior things like diffuser and splitter but next main thing on the list is Power/Handling!

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? :shrug:

Then im looking at the APR Remap but the switchable map features arent available on the later Scirocco R models :mad: Also alloy control arms (Already got anti-lift kit)... the list goes on really :D

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?
