Hi Geordie,
Roc looking great - especially with the Rieger front-end and sideskirts - incidentally why didn't you go for the Rieger rear skirt too ?? Did you get Niche or Autovogue to do the work ??
Getting the same as you done - but in Rising Blue - my Roc due for delivery mid Feb for Mar 01st delivery - can't wait - been a long wait since 15-Jul-09 !! TJ

Hi thanks for the comments, i looked at the Reiger rear bumper and its too low in the flesh and doesnt look that good to be honest its a bit over the top. I was going to get it until i actually seen it. I got the work done at Niche, I orderd mine on the 17th july, so youre well delayed for some reason mate.

Ah I was going to ask if it was the Niche one. Looks like a very tidy job. I really like the two tone seats. Just lifts some of the interior darkness a bit.

Thanks for the comments again. I really am so pleased with how the leather has come out. Even the pics just dont do it justice it looks amazing and the arm rest as mentioned and door cards. The wheels are Black rims 19" ill get some better pics when i get chance and I'm already looking at metal pedals and scirroco door sill protectors. The engine is already mapped (autograph stage 2) , has an evo dump valve, full high flow stainless steel 3" turbo back system, carbon fibre autograph induction kit. Has upgraded grooved discs and pads, colour coded engine cover, eibach 25mm lowering spings. It is 286 bhp now as it stands.

Lol i think the front blends in really well, it sits low to the ground with the eibach kit but still ok. However the rear reiger bumper sits very low and in my current R32 i have i have that lowered 35mm and a milltek stainless steel exhaust which sits low underneath, so have to be really careful over bumps potholes etc.... Due to this i cant be arsed slowing down and being very careful at every bump and pothole like in the current golf as its a pain in the arse lol!! Hence not going for the reiger rear bumper also.

Welcome aboard! Nice to have a fellow geordie on here. good work with the car, keep it up
You'll spot the bit of the OEM air box if you follow the induction pipe from the back of the engine bay towards the front bumper. It's that big squarish black placstic thing attached to the front grille. It'll have a big round hole in one side.

Only benefit to leaving that part of thr airbox in woul dbe to stop rain/road spray entering the engine bay directly.
