R88 JRD Bora Tdi s3 seats Fitted

So I picked these alloys up yestoday

Still unsure if I prefer the old 1s better so going to get them whacked on satday see how they look

Gonna look smart man! bit of dish!

got the new alloys fitted im still no sure if i prefer my old alloys all thought they suit the car i dont think there the route i want to take

Little something added to the rear end



Also smartenedup the bay with a bit more braided hose and new air filter pipe

this is looking realy smart now mate, they look good but i totally agree that they dont look much better than the other rims you had on cant descide

I've sent the old alloys of for a refurb now, thinking a shadow chrome would be best

gonna look sweet man! so you keeping the other wheels?

yeah, shodow chrome, thats whats on my astra atm, but mine are just some kie jdm jobies of dannis old civic good choice, iveallways liked gunshot grey/ chrome combos

just for the people that are interested I've managed to get my bumper vents to fit, I can fit the middle 1 but I like it without



all it took was a quick trim to the vents

Standard grill or badgeless
I really cant decide

been a very busy week

first of all got my alloys back from been refurbed (still need to get them on the car)



i bought a bora 4motion valance got that and my grill sprayed up in gloss black




at first i had the valance colour coded and it looked well to me tacky


i then have removed my front bumper strip

currently been modified in my front room


then lastly i put a bav21 diode on the maf sensor plug to bypass the maf and tell the engine its on maximum airflow


next i think the mirrors are getting painted gloss black

oh and almost forgot

ive had launch control and a rev limited programmed into my map

The splitter would be better in black.

jesus, youve been busy matey,
think the cooler looks sweet, and the grill in black with a black spliter matches imo,
rims looks mint loving the resistor to fool it into max air flow, but i'd keep an eye on it incase it shorts, maybe even only have it in when your goin for a blast, better still, rig it properly to a switch and wire it to the dash- instante power when you want it and otherwise reliable daily when u don't, just a thought

Yeah think I am going to wire it to a switch

Tempted to lose the middle grill and spray the cooler black

Mean while my US side markers are in



Just need to make wiring loom now

Cleaned the car and got the alloys back on and manged to get 1 quick snap

looks mint on those rims imo nice work matey

thank you

Looks awesome mate.. just the tail pipe looks odd :/

haha yeah it needs about 6inch chopping off and a tip putting on the end lol

side markers fitted just before the snow got any worse

Spot the difference

Ha ha, don't it make u laph when u park next to a stock version of your motor? I've got to do this with doris, good photo matey ;-)

I'd take a bumming for a chance to have them wheels.. they're very nice.
