Cheers all

So where will the front facing number plate be fitted and how long before your illegal rear plate gets noticed by the police? I currently have a “static plate” on the front which is kind of like a sticker but can be removed and replaced as and when.. i also have fully road legal number plates incas...

thanks

I love the way you've had the pictures taken of your motor, really shows off the Passat. :-bd Question about your suspension. How high can to ride on them? I think I would cause damage with it sitting that low around my town. I believe the recommended max for each bag is 150psi.. ive never needed t...

Where did you get your pressed plates from out of interest? I like the clean look and love the car, personally don't think it needs anything else, unless you go for interior similar to the boot. Pressed plates were just off a company on ebay, were like £17 for the pair! Not totally clued up on next...

Well another update, fitted pressed plates and sortes afew more led bulbs, also gone with another route with boot now http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v237/rovacoupe/29AC28BD-7E88-4225-B6D1-B35EC2ABDF29_zps40rqsujo.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v237/rovacoupe/C3178142-39AE-45C3-9710-50B08C1...

So, ive been looking at b7 debadged grills and seems the cheapest place to get 1 from is jom, but obviously the whole site is in german.. now i can make out the price and im guessing the postage price and theres the paypal option to pay, but just wondered if anyone has used them before? Was the post...

Cheers raf Hoping you can help me with afew basic bits i still need to sort.. interior led bulbs and numberplate led.. i had a look through the "first mods" post but just got lost, ive bought so many now thatve ended up failing very quickly

Well nothing new except got airlift sorted and back on road for the sunny days :) have got afew little bits for her.. pressed plates ect but not got round to fitting them yet ha http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v237/rovacoupe/D3A09F3B-1198-4C3A-94E9-569A16133FED_zpseiedjp29.jpg http://img.photobuck...

I'm all for getting rid of fried eggs .

Haha yeah any but orange really, ive had the chrome before but quite liked the slight colour in the headlight when off

Yeah they have a kind of oil covered look to them but still flash orange

So ive not been on here for awhile had afew things going on, but hopefully i can start getting on here alittle more and get to some shows.. so since being on here last not alot has changed really but hey il throw some pics up anyway haha... so winter came and i decided to carry on running the polish...

wow.. love the Chrome wheels.. what are they? 19" ? good mods... :-bd Sadly not, there only 18's, there audi a8 winters mirror polished, really love them but i think its going to need some thinking to get them sitting right as they sit alil in arch and look small side on :/ il see what i can d...

Cheers lads, if im honest a little lip spoiler had crossed my mind... although i think itl be a long time before i can afford anything now haha

Well after owning the b7 for afew months now i figures my own touches were long over due.. so i started by replacing the front indicators with some osram diadem bulbs, i thought they were alittle different to doing the usual led replacement http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v237/rovacoupe/Mobile%20U...

48 i believe and 5x112

Wheels are 18x8 audi a8 monoblocks mirror polished up obviously the lows can be sorted but seems a big space front and rear of arch too, would spacers maybe loose some of that? Really didnt want to go 19's

So seen as ive had the car a week now i figured id try out some different wheels.. Had big hopes for these but i just dont think there gonna work :( obviously it needs lowering but they just look so lost in the arches in every way! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v237/rovacoupe/6939A980-7D42-47A5-...

Whats the usual kind of gains on the 170bhp tdi? Similar safe extra bhp?

Looking good, just moved to the b7 side myself, really like that interior but with a baby around i struggled to even keep my bora's cream leather clean haha so moving to any fabric interior was a big step for me ha

I didnt realise itd be such a challenge to find a clean 1 of these myself tbh, 4/5 year old cars i didnt expect to be so.. Accident damaged, scratched, dented or 1 even rusting from a dent/scratch! I was starting to think i was being too picky haha

Oh wow, i had a horrible feeling 18's would look small on but they actually dont.. And springs looks like maybe all it needs as seems to get rid of the arch gap nicely

If all goes to plan this will eventually be bagged... But not for a long time so i imagine subtle on coilovers first
