My 2012 wishlist consists of:

Xenons, RNS510, Remap and DPF removal, R32 rear bumper, Eibach Sportlines, GTI MFSW + highline clocks and a few other cosmetic additions.

is there any point having highline if you dont have the MFSW? I like my flat bottomed steering wheel and would not swap it for a MFSW round one you see. What does the "polar" aspect consist of Mike? Might also go for catch can but decided to just stick the PCV fix on.

Fill in stone chips and denib them, plus machine correction. Refurb the rims.

Anything else is a Bonus.

I do have MFSW? Also looking at newer flat bottomed MFSW from facelift Cupra R.  RichN does the Polar units, it adds much more information to highline.  There's a decent thread on them  :smiley:

That and drive it more than I have done (only done 4,500 miles since March)

Find and purchase Edition 30 front splitter and rear bumper with black central sections (red and black just go so well together), and colour code the side skirts to match. (could be a long search)

Armrest purchase and fitting, plus getting cruise control stalk I have fitted and coded (may involve a trip to see EddieNL)

And sell the new 3D boot badge I have sitting on my desk to add to the wish list pot, guessing Christmas is hindering people's purchasings  :sad1:  :signLOL:

I'm a newbie to the forum (with a standard car) but mods desired (and being planned!) are in three sections - not all in 2012 unless there is a lottery win :xmaspresent:;

No1
KW DDC Coilovers ( (depending on price when they are available for Mk5) (the ones that can be switched electronically)
Whiteline Anti lift kit
K&N Panel Filter

No2
Later DV
Sports cat
Intake - ITG Maxogen or Forge TwinTake (if money allows)
then Stage 1

No3
Rest of exhaust
Bodywork corrected
Paddleshift added to steering wheel

Either way the car will keep looking standard  :innocent: :rolleye:
