Right so I bought the car from a mate in a generally rough condition. I'm still going through the process of getting it tidy. Here's a pic

Things iv done since follow...
New front pads and disks brake world cheapos.
Jbl black 6x9s instead of bright red sony explods.
Painted ronal TT wheels anthracite.
Swapped HIDs for standard bulbs.
Car had a full straight pipe on but had cat put back in for mot as well as fitting new cv boot as it failed.
Replaced Jom blueline coilovers with ap coilovers and new bottom ball joints.
Put kenwood headunit from my saxo in.

Along with fitting allard egr delete and tx auto sport intercooler it was fairly straight forward.

Since this I have fitted the top part of intercooler pipework from the guide on britskoda as the tx autosport fmic kit only adds on to your existing boost pipework for the smic.
Standard replacment brembo rear disks and pads.
And with winter coming up I thought I would buy some steels and winter tyres and get my TT wheels painted.
So I bought these vw 16 steels with continental Contiwinters ;)

I fitted a auto gauge boost gauge and rear speakers last weekend and took my alloys and mirrors to be painted gloss black at MA.autos in Skelton. Which is now my faverote car place as he mostly works on modified cars and you spend half a hour talking to him about the other cars he has in the garage lmfao!!

Colour of steels or ronals TTs? There's a company called bigfish tuning that says he's had 205-210 from these cars with the same mods so that's my ballpark figure.

Not long...

I bought some off eBay, wire brushed and sanded the paint and sprayed them will a few cans of silver hammerite, cheap but effective.

Can't wait for the end result :)
