My Candy White R

Post by Andych »

I picked up my CW Scirocco R on Valentines Day so far it is matching all my expectations.

So far all I have done is to have the front windows tinted and the roof behind the Pano Sunroof wrapped in Gloss Black.
Hopefully my next mod will be the Kufatec RVC which I think will do for a while. I know they really should be lowered but I have gone close to scraping the front already so I will wait a while and see what some of the other guys and gals in Australia do before making up my mind..

At the end of the day it's down to personal taste or lack of..
Personally I find it a bit Towie esque, but each to their own

So your saying wrapping your roof is the car equivalent of getting a vajazzle? (like chungsters) :eyepop:

If done well wrapping can really transform a car, but personally it fades too fast for my liking!

Yes that's kind of what I'm saying .. But that's my opinion, as I said each to their own

And which vajazzle are you referring to ? The one he wears at the weekends when he is also known as Maureen ?

Each to their own I guess.... I think it finishes it off when you have the Panoramic Sunroof.....and the beauty is... when it fades or when I don't like it anymore... I can take it off. :)

You lot worry me though with all this talk of vajazzles...

The guys on the Mods thread, the bodywork option and the wrapping the spoiler thread will admire your work. A couple of wrapped roofs over there

I just realised it has been quite a while since I posted any pics and things have changed a little.... :)

She has been lowered using Eibach Pro-Kit but still needs to come down a little lower in the rear... I think i will save up for the DCC KW kit..

Power is not via an APR stage 1 tune... this will go to stage 2+ soon with the addition of intake, APR RSC Exhaust and a HPFP.

Now for the more obvious visual part.. the wheels....
They are BBS LM's originally from a Maserati... They are 8.5 x 19 front with 245x35 Conti's and 10 x 19 Rear with 265x30 Contis's (should have gone 265x35 though)

The brakes are not fitted yet... they are Brembo 18Z 6 piston Calipers from a Q7 / Touareg or Porsche Cayenne with 350mm single piece rotors.
