@Giddy what lower bumper is that dude is it the alltrack?

Don't suppose you could put links up for the Forge Motorsport induction kit dude been looking for decent intake but find nothing for the 1.4tsi. everyone tells me its same engine as the golf 1.4 tsi but there 185bhp standard so not sure on fitment.

Thanks lads for you kind comments.

@Ripley55 Yes, straight to 35W upgrade mate :)

@Caddy Dan123 Yes it's an Alltrack splitter. As for the complete induction kit you need part numbers FMINDK14 and FMDV1, assuming you talking about the EA211 engine.

@Caddy Dan123
What's your engine code mate? Mine is CZCB, I believe yours should be the same. You can find a sticker on the timing belt cover, also a sticker with all the spec in the fuse box under the steering wheel or in your user manual.

Thanks lads for your kind comments.

A little teaser of what's coming next. Just received these callipers back from a forum member @ToiletTFSI after a colour change. Now the real challenge is to find some time and fit them before the Tatton Park!
p.s. The decal idea borrowed from Doc's build thread :oops:

Are the smaller set being used in a dual-caliper set up for the rear, or are they just replacing the factory ones?

Thanks lads. Yes, the smaller set is the rear callipers, but it's a single calliper setup with hydraulic handbrake mechanisms bolted to each bracket, which will apply rear brakes when the handbrake is engaged.

Test fitted the front brakes. Rotor is a bit too close to the ball joint, measured 0.8mm :shock:
Will have to order different bells and brackets to push everything outward by about 5mm. Shame the brakes are not going to be fitted for the Tatton Park.
