Finally took a few pics the other night. Sorry for the poor pics, iphones arent really the best for taking good photos

you wouldnt even guess that i cleaned it that day too.

haha
Really need to clean her up and take some better pics.
Fitted all leds in sidelights and new led numberplate lamps. Some 4800k antiglare hids in. All without any bulb warning lights

looks so much more sportier and makes night time drivin more fun
Also fitted a forge spacer as well, sounds awesome

much louder than my 9n3 gti. Also thinking about removing the sound proofing cover of the supercharger for a little extra wine

anyone else done this?

What snow foam machine/products are you using mate? reccomended or not? Always been interested if it makes a difference or not when it comes to cleaning.

I use the elite car care snow foam lance, and elite snow foam matey. IMO, its best thing you can ever buy to aid the cleaning of a car. Seriously reduces the chances of them horrible swirl marks, and normally, after leaving it on for about 5 mins or so and pressure washin off, the car looks so clean. I always wash it with meguiars nxt gen or ultimate after a snow foam as well

I kinda have OCD for car cleaning

lol But yeah, would defo recommend buyin one matey

That does look impressive. I think i will have to invest in one. so you get the car wet, then snow foam, then wash foam off, and then continue washing car as normal? what does the snow foam actually do then? get most of the dirt off before hand washing?

I just snow foam it straight away pal, then rinse of, then clean as normal. The snow foam pritty much loosens all the dirt, and falls off. You can see all the dirt on the floor after leavin it for 5 mins or so. Think there about £60 bud.

Well after a long, and very painful 10 months, the GTI is finally all fixed and im back to being a happy bunny: D
DSG box has received a new software update, and the Mecatronics box has had a master reset. Gear changes are so much more smoother and faster now. And so far, it hasn’t shifted into neutral (Fingers crossed). It now actually drives better than the day I collected it.
Pipercross air filter and forge DV where fitted at weekend. Got the H&R’s going on within the next 2 weeks hopefully.
New rim's and Remap to come very soon also. Just got to keep the Misses happy and sort a holiday out first
Detail session also to follow end of next week on my long weekend off work to fully correct the paintwork after Veedub washed it many times with the Stoney Sponge
Will get some new pics up when all is complete
