As promised we talked partnumbers via the PM system.
So hopefully my last parts will arrive first thing next week so I should be able to install a few pieces soon!
Got laying at home waiting to be fitted:
Darkside Developments Audi S3 Inter Cooler
Darkside Developments Audi 4bar map sensor
Darkside Developments Silicone air pipe (engine side of the sensor)
Darkside Developments Silicone AEM Air filter kit
Darkside Developments Subframe spacer kit
Darkside Developments Hardpipe kit
Genuine VW B6 alloys wishbones
Genuine VW B6 ball joints
Genuine VW GTI ED30 frontbumper (Need to make holes for PDC sensors and it need to be repainted!)
Genuine VW R-line fog grills
Genuine VW GTI front grills (upper and lower) removed the "GTI" logo since mine is a TDI.
SuperPro Anti-Lift kit
Custom Keys mk7 key fob kit
Awaiting arrival first thing next week:
New screws'n bolts and bits for the GTI front bumper conversion from VW
Mk6 GTD cluster so that I can finish my instrument cluster build (I got the 3D tiguan base, Scirocco facelifted front, blue R tacho needles with the mk6 GTD 300km/h and RPM dials.)
Still need to order:
Radiator
Fuel filter housing and new fuel lines
Dampers and springs for all sides
GTI frontbumper carrier
GTI slam panels and cover
Upcomming mods:
Parts for adding interior doorhandle illumination on all 4 doors - ARRIVED
Parts for adding side assist - SHIPPED
Parts for adding Trunk/Fuel switch - ARRIVED
So last couple weeks has be going on by ordering a bunch of stuff and reading what's possible and what's not. Doing all these retrofits from newer cars gives you a good reading trying figure out what would work with what etc etc..
Anyway.. I need to source out new door controllers before I can fit my indoor hande ligths, anti-dazzle side mirrors, trunk/fuel switch and the side spot assist indicators. Don't like pulling the door cords of more than I have to, so will fit all at once.
Also need to find the GTI carrier and panels before I can fit the GTI front , but should have time to get this done before it has been painted.
Will keep you guys updated when the parts starts going into the car :) :drinking:

Yeah.. Abou the turbo I'll be running the GTB2260 or the 2056. Can't really decide.. Since I will not get the car remapped to as much BHP that it will develop a whole lot of smoke. In fact I don't want the smoke to change from where it is normal today.
And I'm affriad if I go change the nozzle to get full use of the 2260 I will apply some more smoke since I will be pulling about 300 bhp. So ideally would be stock injectors and the 2056 with a 230-235 remap.
Will be buying the Darkside Development turbo kit with manifold and all that when the funds are there for it :) Going to upgrade the whole sussespension, steering and hopefully brake system before I will be starting getting some cash to the turbo set.
I wont upgrade the power that much and then run stock brakes... Hell no! Need to have the brakes installed before the car gets more power hehe.

So I had some spare time today to get started on my new frame for the new style mk7 climatronic control panel.
So here's some of the work I did today.. It's now laying and drying with the primer again, ready for some black paint tomorrow and then some wrap to match the rest of the 3M black brushed parts.
