Nerih 0 Posted October 1, 2004 Report Share Posted October 1, 2004 Hello, I've just about finished my VR6 (still no ICE and the front/top end needs doing)But since this is going to be 'it' for a while (going back to work on monday!) i'm gonna show some pics.17 rs4 alloys (not repilca, although they have replica VW badges [i have the audi inserts ]), perreli pzero's all round.Lowered on GMAX springs (thankyou to acf for his advice and the rest of you for the guidance on this)Large Throttle Body and Remap (206BHP, 210 FTLB, on dyno)...most cost effective mod imo.BMC CDA (is looking at me wondering why it aint been installed yet, guys i need help, my AC is getting in the way!)ICE (not yet)Large Oldy splitters (genuine VW, although they couldve fooled me, see pics)Xenon HID bulbs with ballasts.sebring catback.--- to comeBMC CDA, ICE, Fitment of my hella's celis lamps from the US.picsonly decent photo of exhaust im afraid, it'll grow on me, my first impressions were is that it was too big.Love the side profile shotsVW cover sticker for splitters (reason for this img)now you can see why im not satisfiedvw told me to bugger off basically lol....shouldnt expect much from them hey? I KNEW i shouldve gone for GPC.i will add pics here as the work continues (ideally they will be pics of ice etc)...i have been told i should take pics when the car is clean and not got loads of s hit on it her LOL...the brake dust on the alloys add's character [ Edited ]oh yeah those of you who have seen my crashed post will also notice that there is NOT ONE scratch or dent on the wing or rear bumper :) ...worth the 220 quid i paid to get both repaired.[ Edited ] Link to post Share on other sites

Nerih 0 Posted October 1, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2004 i had my garage put in a replacement one, they sent it to a company called AmD near oxford (i think?) i had it sent off the day i bought the car (while it was being serviced it was replaced). Sound okay?Im not sure which grille to fit once i have the new lights on, kamei honey combed or debaged multi slatted[ Edited Fri Oct 01 2004, 10:51PM ] Link to post Share on other sites

Its £377.22 quid for it installed and the ecu updated.AHA! thats why my car and binliners car look different from tommy's, ours are 5 doors and have a piller in the rear window! looks alot cleaner without the pillar (but im guessing the electric windows woulde have a hard time LOL)[ Edited Fri Oct 01 2004, 11:09PM ] Link to post Share on other sites
