Nice timeline man, i enjoyed reading it
Car's looking great, will look boss on the freshly painted BBSs. And those Recaros are just a pleasure to ride in. Got Recaros myself and they're so comfy

Hey guys. Thought I'd start up a thread of my UK Bora! I won't say much, but I'll let the pictures do most the talking! Bare with me, there's loads!
Bought it like:


Then started vinyling/carbon fibre wrapping bits


Bought some TT comps, sprayed them VW Indigo blue


Got a 4motion splitter and private plate.

Bought some Recaro's ridiculously cheap

Got some JOM coilovers fitted and fitted the wheels

Then crashed

Got her resprayed, smaller tyres and lowered a little and gave her a 2 day detail



Then got some of my fave wheels, BBS RSII's. Had been after some for a long time, got these cheap!

Lowered her some more, but was getting lots of driveshaft rubbing, and was sitting poo

So got a chassis notch done, fitted a whiteline arb and raised the engine 25mm

Got the front all the way down, and the rears down with helpers and adjusters still in

Detailed it again before GTI Inters


Got an EGR delete kit

Went for a shoot





Then went to edition38 etc, and decided I need to go lower, so removed the rear adjusters and the front helpers




Rolled my arches, built a sub enclosure, upgraded my door speakers and finished my interior trims




Last pic I got of her before I crashed! lol.

Got some VRS spiders, so is now in winter mode



[B]Fitted the US bump strip, with the side markers, pics below.

Had it remapped and a Decat done!




As you can see, it's looking quite sorry for itself atm lol, been prepping the bumper for the respray! Currently in the bodyshop at the moment!
Also currently refurbing the BBS, polishing the lips and centres, along with painting the centres Audi Daytona Grey! Here's a pic of how they will look, on the car

And a quick chop of how it will look when its all finished in a month or so!

(Plan to run it as close to that height as I can, static)
Got quite a few more bits to do, and bits to buy!, will keep you posted
Cheers for looking and bearing with me! Took a while to get the pics together haha!
