The VrS badge on the bonnet is nice. Did you have to take off the original badge before putting it on? Or does it go over the original badge?

 

yes the original badge was removed.

Cleaned with Autoglym Bodywork Shampoo Conditioner and Aquawax.

875 miles on the clock.

Also did the Cooper yesterday too, also used Autoglym trim ‘snot’

If you want to know why it rains so much, it's my fault. God waits until I clean my Black car and then makes the road outside the local Quarry, which I have to pass to go to work, resemble Land Rover's offroad course!

Made use of what seems like the first proper spring day! It’ll probably be covered in dirt again tomorrow.

 

 

 

couple more modifications, new Reiger carbon rear diffuser,  black tail pipes, 19" Xtremes treated and fitted, I'll be de-badging tomorrow night and fitting the new grill before dub shed hopefully.

it got a bit cold so some of the images are icy, I've machine polished the whole car and treated with Gtechniq c2v3 which looked great in the sun.


 

Its still sitting a bit tall as the suspension hasn't settled back yet. I'm pretty pleased with the Gyeon as the finish is mirror like.
 

As i was changing the wheels i couldnt believe it but the mechanic who did the lowering spring also fitted the spacers..... 15mm and 20mm, he's only gone and fitted 15mm on one side and 20mm on the other instead of front and back!!! I only noticed as i thought the spacer on the rear was a bit thin when i had the wheel off. I hope it was his apprentice and not himself.

this was an Audi 'master technician' 15 years experience, always check your mechanics work if possible.... 

Your car looks like you have ~500HP

Maybe I should´ve post this on the "Let's see your dirty cars !" -thread.

But the 4x4 weather is not over yet, it was -9°C this morning:

That’s really nice. What part of the country is that? There’s a nice green one near me that I often meet on the way to work.

Can I ask, the splitter does it come ready to fit? No sealing needed etc? 

just one small hole to drill on the nearside, that's it, no glue or sealants. All the holes are pre-cut and it comes with standoffs for the screws if you need them. it was much harder cracking the factory splitter off without stressing the plastic than refitting the rieger. this was a doddle to fit even in the dark.

What size are these and where did you get them from please? If I don't go for the Bentley wheels I'm watching, I'd love to space out my Gemini's

These are from Watfields engineering, 15mm front and 20mm rear, drop them a message on Facebook they are really helpful 

Thanks, will do

We’re absolutely chuffed to bits with our Corrida Red vRS TSi 230 DSG Estate.  

Took delivery 2weeks ago and it’s a pleasure to drive and so spacious for our family.
