It's been a very long time since the last update, i've not really done much apart from buying a DA polisher which has been good and I have bought a new camera so here is a few pictures trying out some different effects;








I've also just bought 4 new tyres, i've gone for Michelin Pilot Sport 3's, first impressions are very good but we shall see how they go.

Cheers,
Ben

Rob1:
Nice pictures there Ben, we have identical cars other than mine being the petrol version.
Did you encounter any problems, changing the cat back exhaust? that's only thing that bugs me is having the hidden exhaust.

Cheers Rob  :happy2: ah that's cool, have you got a members ride thread??

No problems at all, I originally colour coded the standard bumper but didn't like the hidden exhaust either so I bought myself a GTi rear valance as it's a straight swap, bought that from VW as they're fairly cheap, then got a mate to paint it for me.
Then went up to Cobra exhausts in Sheffield who fitted the exhaust, who I can highly recommend.
The exhaust is non resonated so I imagine would be quite loud on a petrol but it's okay on the diesel, just a little bit more smoke  :smiley:

Rob1:
Hmm a members ride thread, i wouldnt exactly call it a thread mate, there are only about four pictures uploaded.
I did take a few pictures a few weeks ago, but i didnt upload them.

I would like to go down the R32 route with the twin centre rear exhausts, i've had one qoute which was in the £600 region, i felt that was slightly excessive. Sheffield bit of a distance for me mate, as i'm in London.

Interesting reading your feedback about the H & R's as i#ve been contemplating whether to go for them or the Eibach's, i,m leaning more towards the H & R's.

Washout:
Hey matey, could I ask how you got on with the vredestine sessanta thinking about fitting these to my gti just wondering about you opinions.
