The front bumper is going off in a while to fit new R-leds (with Kufatec so LEDs and blinkers will behave identical to the lights on the R). I am considering removing the badge then.

While washing the car today I found out that the R-badge was just clipped on in a way that actually makes it possible to remove it without detaching the bumper.. The badge was attached to the grille when I got the whole kit, and I thought that the attachment bracket on the grille was white (which they usually are), so kept the badge attached to not get a visible white bracket in the grille. Mine was not though (it has obviously been painted piano black by the paint man), so removed the R-badge today
It actually feels a bit better without the badge, since it's actually not an R... Now I just have to remove the R-Line badges on each side of the front fenders when the weather gets a bit warmer.

And some random shots of the new spoiler
brilliant car and good photographs.
Was it difficult to place the roof spoiler.
Can you maybe make a "how to do" topic of it....

Hello,
New to the forum and still checking out all the rides.
May I just add that your Roc looks phenomenal!
I wouldn´t change it a bit. I´m currently waiting for my rocco and can only wish it gets half as good as yours.
Every detail has been covered...
Great work, Kenti!

@turboyuppie: Sorry for the late reply! Thank's for the compliments I didn't dit the roof spoiler, my dealer did, so I am not able to post any "how to"-topic on the, sorry But I believe it's just a couple of screws and some tape to remove/mount it.
@Tom84: Thank's dude! Looking foreward to seeing your thread when you get the car

Summer time = new wheel time
Got a hold of some new wheels, OEM Savannah 19x9 ET33. Will fit them next week when the tires are swapped.

Hi there, the pic with your summer wheels, have you had them powder coated or painted yourself? They look really good. Any information you can share would be fabulous. Many thanks

Thank you very much for the nice comments, guys!
@longman: Those summer wheels are standard "Gunmetal" color. Mine were replicas, but thay can be ordered in that color from VAG as well.
The new summer wheels were fitted yesterday

You're still on springs? No spacers?
Looks good, but I like RS6s to

Still on H&R springs, and no spacers of course. Why use spacers with 9" wide rims that are ET33
Agree on the RS6-2s, they fit the car very well also.
@Withnail: Thank you

No the savannah's are the flat faced ones on this page being used for summer, that particular picture (kenti's winter wheels) are mallory alloys as mentioned in his profile
