* UPDATE *
Been a while since I updated this quite a lot has happened in the meantime.
Picked up some new wheels for a pretty good price off of here. BBS RW17 in white with Yoko Pradas. They had a bit of curbing on them but I wasn't too bothered as I will eventually get them refurbished.
Got hold of a NewSouth indigo boost guage and air vent pod. Fitted it and wired it to come on with dash lights. Looks nice and factory.
Did a bit of tidying up in the engine bay, removed SAI pump and bypassed N249 and n112 valves. Holds boost so much better now. Also at the same time due to removing the SAI i was left with a hole in the side of the air box, so I had to look for a replacement. I managed to pick up a MK4 Ibiza tdi airbox for a good price to go with the pd160 intake. This solved that problem but the paper filter wasnt really up to the job so I swapped that out for Jabbasport Cone in a box. Engine feels and sounds a little more fruity now which is a plus.
I managed to pick up a Bluemotion grill for a good price so set about changing the grill and loosing that nasty front badge. Not sure if to keep it white or go gloss black with it.

After
Also got my private plate on in the meantime too. It came with 8k HID's and i hated the blue so i had to get rid, so i installed new sidelights, dipped and main beam. Ring Automotive 120% brighter. They give a nice white light and stop me getting flashed but everyone on the road haha.
Recently I purchased a set of coilovers to get it sitting a lot better. I didnt want to get a cheap ones so i went for BC Racing V1s. I would of got H&R ultra lows but didnt have the extra cash.
Split them and copper greased them all up ready to be fitted
Out with the old and in with the new
While fitting the coilovers I thought i would tidy up a few bits and fit my recent purchases.
Wind deflectors
De badged and de wipered the rear with glass blank
Also smoked my front fogs
Just a few pics of how its sitting now, will be going lower in the new year along with new wheels and some bodywork changes
Cheers
