Looks very nice and tidy mate
Have you got any more pictures of the exhaust? Is it the Scorpion DTM Boxer?
Cheers, Matt

this is the best one I have of it. It follows the curve of the bumper up slightly.
It is a nice box but is loud. Alex said he heard me miles away lol. but it sounds nice 70-80 mph and changing down from 3rd to 2nd gear.

Get a new rear numper-plate, that one looks well manky and ruins the look of an otherwise clean car!

I'm not really surprised you are on your second box this year
Looks tidy though mate, although I agree with the rear number plate comment

I have the plate but not got around to ordering new holder yet. I want to get the red piping done asap on the front.
Vw event on the 13th in midlands I think. I want to sell it but I love it too much.

Looks Good Bradley
I would get the plate changed and fit some Eibach Sportline Springs when you change the shocks.

Thats the plan. Because I drive to london daily from dorset I dont want coilovers as there are too many speed bumps. Just need to find a good spring.
I was thinking of some pressed plates but not too sure.

Thought I would put up a pic of my vw badge and gti as I vinaled then a few weeks ago. My bosses daughter is a vinal expert so I got some free off cuts.
Coming in to work on monday I got a stone chip and it has done this to my screen in 3 days:

Pressed plates always look cool and for £30 its money well spent
Shame about the crack on the window, looks to be far beyond an Autoglass gel repair.

the whole crack is internal. Cant feel anything inside or outside the car.
I might order some plates on pay day. Some legit ones and the met police go hard at people with the german ones.
