To cut a long story short, my history of cars since the age of 17 has been, Ford ka 1.3 (nippy!), VW Polo 1.2 (also nippy!), Honda Civic Type R EP3 (a rocket in a go kart), Honda Civic Type R FN2 (a spaceship), VW Mk6 golf 1.6 TDI, and now my beautiful Scirocco TDI 140 in black.
I Was reading the threads on here and scirocconet before I got the car, but used this one more as it seemed to update more often, and had more content. It was pretty much Kenti's car that inspired me to get one, but didn't have the option of getting a GT model, and needed a dirty diesel after wasting (or enjoying) far too much money in the Type R's.
Anyway onto the build, I don't plan to do much really, only cosmetic as I can't really afford to be going down the performance route just yet.
Chrome exhaust tips
Got these from an eBay seller who I think is an actual Skoda dealership (from the packaging). Makes a huge difference to the cars appearance in my opinion! Only £26 from http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/130740967913? ... 1497.l2649
MTECH H7 dipped headlights
Love the look of these, make a huge difference over the original yellowish bulbs. Easy to fit too. £12 from Hids-direct.
T10 8xSMD sidelights
An absolute pain in the ar$e to get the foglight covers off, using more force than you think, and alot of anger helps! Then pulling off the whole light unit (including the rubber backing) was tough. £6 from eBay can't complain, but will still keep an eye out for a proper DRL unit like the R has.

18 bulb SMD number plate lights
These are so bright, they light up the floor below the plates! Nice effect. Easy to install and come with a resistor so no bulb error. £19 from a seller on eBay.
To do:
-I have the OEM metal foot pedals to fit so they'll be on soon.
-I think I'll tint the windows, maybe a DIY job if I'm feeling confident.
-I definitely want to change the alloys to the RS6 ones (as seen on Derboy's) or TTRS ones, 18". They would probably be replica ones though as I can't afford the real deal.
I also want to do a few things with vagcom but need to find someone in my area that has it.
