haha Id love to claim best looking facelift but its not nearly finished yet and the I've seen a few around that look amazing!! Also a lot of people are starting to fit the facelift bumpers/headlights ect.. to a pre-facelift which is just cheating

Trust me bro you don't have to say it I'll say it for you this R is too serious

I agree on the cheating it just ain't the same though imo

Keep the photos coming bro can't wait to see more updates!

It looks better without the front badge

How is the ride quality of the vmaxx after some months of using? I've heard they are quite stiff and crashy. Interesting to hear another opinion.

I'm considering AP coilers,but vmcxx have ride adjustments and perhaps they will go lower, so it might be a better option.

still really nice managed to get the perfect balance between stiff and oem cushion after they settled in so overall still very happy with them not crashy at all!

Thats for review! They are even cheeper than AP delivered in my county so probably I`ll choose them!

Major project congratulations, my scirocco is a 1.4 TSI SPORT and made the update to facelift the same as yours, but now one of the direction indicator leds won moisture in and merged, will be that I can you get the nr chassis of a R facelift for me to order the part in Vw because you ask me chassis number of a real R, Kind regards

Haha, Thanks! Ride comfort is great on these coilovers - adjustable damping so can still be low and get good comfort (coilovers also for sale )

I just had the Bilstein B14 installed and they are hard AF and they did not really lower your car :/ I guess it's a little expensive to ship them to switzerland

thats not good, hope you get it sorted!! these can be set to a soft setting while still being proper low it states upto 70mm but i swear it goes more than that!! still got a good 15mm to go front and back

Got to make way for some goodies now though

Looks amazing mate! Very nice in white. I'd have gone white if I didn't find my pyramid gold one!

How do you find the wheel fitment? I keep looking at a set but not sure what J to go for. Also contemplated going down to 18s but I just can't decide!

Thanks!

Wheel fitment wise im happy with it at the moment - ET35 sits flush with the arch and 9.5J fits easy all round so why not makes it look more aggressive!

Also wouldnt go down to 18s... the Rocco's shape and size doesnt suit them! It not a Golf 19s are perfect

FYI wheels are for sale

Christmas came early for the Rocco

Time to get this thing bagged pretty sure there are only a couple facelifted R's that are bagged in the UK?

Anyway - will update with pics once fitted next week!

Have you chosen wheels yet?

i have indeed! Something a little out of the ordinary will most likely sort them out early next year though and run stock through winter

After a few days of tinkering - finally got this thing bagged!! pretty sure only a few facelift scirocco r's have been bagged?!? Real Facelift R's .... not fake diesels

Have to admit i was fully against air suspension but after rolling low on coilovers and scraping on every speed bump i had enough! gave in to the dark side

Airlift V2 supplied by CarAudioSecurity

Already had a notch done previously by PlushAutomotive (Top guys!)

Anyway..... Cast13 wheels sold and back on stock wheels till next year

Grabbed a few iPhone photos but will snap some proper ones later

Havent had time to take some proper photos but here's one after work

damn!....
badass ride man speechless!!
