Hi all.. Just bought my scirocco 2nd hand in Ni here.
It's a 2.0 tfsi in candy white
19" Lugano wheels
Xenons (corner lights)
Anti dazzle mirror
Kufatec Bluetooth kit
Lowered 15mm on kw springs
This is how iv bought it.
First plan Is lights led's inside and out don't like the yellow look. Got LEDs etc ordered
Thinking of carbon fiber dipping mirrors,rubbing strips,front grill maybe fit a splitter and get it dipped too. And considering getting the wheels dipped but not too sure at the moment! Iv asked for a photo shop but haven't got one done yet on here..
And down the line milltek turbo back non res and decatted and remap by torquetronix

Yeah I think it needs just that little drop to suit the 19's but doesn't affect the comfort IMHO

I'm not a fan of coilovers unless it's a track car or something along those lines... I like my comfort don't wanna go down that route again!

Lovely!!
What's the dark section sticking out from under the front wheel arch? I was looking at one I wanted to buy recently and it had something similar but on the rear wheel arch and I had no idea what it was. :/

Haven't got the LEDs fitted yet.. some arrived today and hoping the rest come tomorrow I got them all off eBay but from different sellers.. I'm working tonight so will hopefully get them in tomorrow and get pics up.. If you search the site it shows you cars with LEDs fitted and it helps the look of car IMHO.
But you need to get canbus LEDs so no errors come up and also can get non can bus. So would help you..

On mine it's mudflaps, but in the back there's a little black piece of plastic on arch sorta at top on rear and I think it's just to protect the quarter panel from stones etc.
As far as I'm aware it's standard

Fitted lights and they're a great job... Have pics but can't see the difference in pics but really do help the look of it.. Now all whitey- blue colour rather than crappy yellow

The Lugano's design makes them look huge so the contrast between them and the bbs wheels will be massive!

Lovely car mate! I'll keep an eye out for you if you're the southern end of antrim. I'm from Belfast myself and rarely up north! Lugano's look amazing!
I didn't realise that TT were doing TSI remaps now, the mate told me they weren't! I never thought of ringing them when I got the car.

Yeah Carlpea it's quite a difference but also big difference is the 40 profile tyres on 18"s a lot more comfortable might consider putting 40's on to lugano's

Thanks mate, I'm barely up that direction either used to go up to Bangor a lot when I was younger and had my r33gtr not now though.
Did you get car remapped already? Yeah TT do map them get good figures too.. Iv got my milltek and all on now but might not bother getting it mapped until after winter as it would be a big difference!

Love Skylines they are the best! Yeah got bluefin when it was on offer back in June. Really makes a difference to it! Couldn't tell you if there was a difference in mpg though as I had it done within a week of ownership
After winter is a lonnng time to wait for getting it mapped! How does the milltek sound? Any video clips?! I keep meaning to get some of mine. The DSG farts sound unreal. The tailpipes also should look like that std! A TSI parked next to me in tesco the other day and I couldn't help but laugh at the size compared to mine!
