Hi,

Just wanted to share what I have done over the past 8 months of having my car.

I always wanted a scirocco and thought after having my smart car roadster it was time to trade in and upgrade to this.

After having it for a few weeks I thought something had to be done to the front bumper and so decided on a splitter and colour coding the badges.

Next was to change all the interior lights to LEDs, exterior bulbs to white xenons and change the gear nob to the audi a1s.
Image
Image
I also decided to add a bit of carbon vinyl to the interior.
Image
Image
After looking at it I new it had to be lowered so H&R springs were purchased and then some new wheels which arrived and have had them all fitted. Which brings me to where I am now.

I have purchased a new DSLR camera so have been practicing a bit of photography so sorry if they arnt that great.
Let me know your thoughts please or any ideas of what to do next?

Looks good, mate. How do you find the splitter? Does it scrape much?

Yeah the spitter scrapes when coming down multi car parks and hits curbs but only slightly not enough for me to have to remove it. It doesn't hit on the village speed bumps round my area which is good.

Nice ride! Front bumper looks so much better without fog lights and with updated daylights

The car looks great, are those 18" or 19" rotors?

Wheels look the business on it!

The rotors are 19" x 8.5 with slight stretch on the tyres. They seem to fit flush to the arch so no spacers needed. May get 5mm all round though?

No idea mate came with the car. I'm sure you can pick some up off eBay though.
