I like that a lot, some very nice subtle touches and it looks great.

And please tell me that 1.8T unit is going to be given a new home under your bonnet!

i really like this mate makes a nice difference from the badgeless grilles audi pedals and deep dish alloys. How much was that engine? and roughly how much is it gonna cost to fit? haha i wish i cld do that sort of thing to mine lol.

Looking good mate. When your putting the new engine in make sure to take lots of pics, then we can all see the ammount of work that goes into a transplant.

i reckon its gonna cost another Â£1000 -Â£1500

16V Bumper
Clear indicators (side and front)
Lowered

How come yours looks actually red, mines on it's verge!

Hehe, i've just polished mine a couple of weeks ago and it's gone faded a bit already! Dare not get it resprayed as I only paid Â£750 for mine anyway, probably cost that to get it resprayed

Ahh, in a couple of years time i'll get a 6N2.

all depends how far you want to go with the car but your probs right its gonna cost what you paid for the car or more to get it sprayed

could always go for a colour change too tho
