- adjusting the ET of the frontwheels from 45 to 48
- adjusting the coilover springs to go more low
- multifunctional steeringwheel

Updates for next year:
- leather interior
- 19" winter rims

That is lovely :happy2:

Think the regular GTI front grille would look better though. The R32 one still reminds me if a Jetta :laugh:

Thanks guys, will post pics when some mods are been done.

The reason for concidering taking the Movits of is the fact that I probably will cancel the k04 upgrade.
