  • Vw Scirocco -09

    Hello guys. I wanted to share my project with you.

    So this january i wanted a new car and i had such a bad case of car fever that it took only week for me to buy it. Criterias were white, bigger motor than 1.4tsi, xenon headlights and manual. So i found this. Already lowered a bit, all windows tinted and 2.0tdi. This is the condition what it were.

    I already knew that im going to bag it since i had set of airlift performances from my previous car, but let's talk about that later on.

    First thing i did with the car was rear wiper delete and led plate lights. Bad pictures, but you'll get the point.

    Next thing on my mind was R front bumber. After searching all over internet tips to the operation i found that guys were having problems with blinkers (r sciroccos has blinkers on headlights instead of bumber) So i bought front drls with blinkers, after that i bought the r bumber only to find that they come with drls with blinkers..

    After a long day with car i finally managed to put R bumber on.. It was pretty hard to fit so it would look good. But this is how it looked after installation. At the same time i fitted color coded side strips.

    It was almost summer so i put summer wheels on. These came with the car and i really ***** them.

    So i knew that i have to do air installation nicely since you can see in the boot so easily. I really put some work into it. I worked and tried differend setups for about two weeks.
    Some pictures of the progress.

    I had to make it from several pieces because the space inside the boot is bigger than the bootlid hole (dont know the correct way to say it but hopely you understand)

    Did some upholstery work

    Hardlines are neccessary with nice big picture of the boot so i did them.

    At this point i bought set on BBS Speedlines 19" x 9" et33 allround.

    I wanted white / gold color theme so i painted air tank and wheels centers bbs gold.

    And things are getting interesting.

    I had a long weekend off work so i tried to install Mkiv struts to this. I always thought that it was going to be easy job.. But not. Rear struts were different and rear bags were too high so there was no point of installing them. I emailed airlift and got great deal with new rear mkv bags so i ordered them. It took couple weeks before they came here so i had time to finish the wheels and boot.

    This is how it looked when i first mounted speedlines.. Sitting high and missing center caps.. I wasnt sure even if i liked the wheels.

    Boot ready.

    So rear bags finally came and this time the installation were pretty straight forward since i knew everything i needed to do. I dont have any installation pictures, but this is how it looked. And at this point i started to like the speedlines.

    It needed spacers badly so i ordered 30mm to front and 10mm to rear.
    These pictures are not taken by me. I went to annual car show called Kalis.

    Even though i liked speedlines i thought it was time to step up the shoe game so i drove to makenbaa's (he has project topic here) garage and test fitted Work emitz 19" x 10" and 19" x 11" Well it wasn't suprise that the rears are going to poke, but i thought that i can manage that and bought them..

    It took me couple of weeks to gather everything i need to put them on (camber kit and narrower tires) so finally we made the trade. This was the first day i got them.

    I had troubles fitting that 11" monster so it looked like this few weeks.


    Untitled by Jimi Jokela, on Flickr

    I had to sandwich mount rear wheels so now they are 10.5"
    Finally mounted rears and had to take pictures.

    The wheels had taken lots of damage on tire assemblys. Gladly makenbaa is car painter so he fixed these for me.

    So that is were i'm with the car atm. I still have lots of things in my mind so dont think it's ready (i doubt it never be). I probably forgot to say lot's of things but pictures say more than my words.

    Please tell me what you think and have a nice day everyone!

                    Well you are in luck because they are not black But for real they are dark grey and little bit of blueish on sun. You really should see the color in person, it's really nice! I dont like black wheels either. But they are going to be rebuild next winter. Outer lips are going to be polished and i just need to figure out what color we paint on the centers.
