Didn't plan on making a progress page as I didn't plan on doing much to the car and after losing love for it for a long time I recently decided I want to keep it and make some progress
Anyway bought my scirocco back in October 2015 after needing to get a diesel as my Corsa Sri Turbo was was to much on fuel and the dreaded piston 4 was on its way
got dealer just down the road from my house to find me a scirocco, originally wanted a 170 spec one but wasn't too bothered when they came up with this
Full heated leather, touch screen Bluetooth, panoramic sunroof and the dealer got the alloys powder coated gloss black for me free of charge
Already had ordered black badges, leds for all round, hids, short plates and exhaust tips when I found out it was a 140
so as soon as I got it home I gave it a wash and put all my stuff on it, gave the alloys a good wax aswell since they were freshly powder coated
Next was to get the rest of the roof wrapped to match the sunroof and get a sunstrip, also fitted some black mirror caps (easiest mod ever)
Had a meeting with a deer so it went off to get sorted via my insurance
Back it came with a new front end, Bonnet, Bumper, Passenger wing, grills and Radiator
I then got a massive stone chip on my window so out came auto glass with a new window meaning I lost my sunstrip so I booked in straight away for a new one and got it slightly larger this time
That brings t pretty much upto date, apart from keeping it polished up and clean that's everything. On the look out for a set of coilovers and some spacers just now as the arch gap is rediculous haha
Thanks Chris

Will do! heard 12mm is a good size for using with the standard alloys, brings the face flush with the arch so I've been told!
