Quick update, manage to grab a set of logo mats from a guy who was selling his caddy.
Swapped over the locking tabs and jobs a good'un.

Replace x3 leaf spring body plugs due to one missing, part number is superseded, I'll pop the new one in useful part numbers.

Re: Mk4 Highline 2.0 tdi reflex sliver.
Dragged myself out of bed mid morning (worked last night), fitted my Gaz dampers I recently purchased, ceramic coated them as I had some Gyeon Rims left over from coating my wheels plus fitted rear oem discs + pads.
Painted the rear discs using TechniQ VHT paint, will paint the rear calipers when I upgrade the front brakes.

Contuined with the full service today, picked up filters/oil/sump plug from TPS (Bishop Stortford) Top lads to deal with, gave out a 45% discount code on service parts.
2,800 miles between services Didn't realise it was this low until I checked the service book.
Gave her a run out this morning after fitting the rear dampers (as per Vw instructions) all seems good so far, definitely an improvement over the standard (worn) oem dampers .

Re: Mk4 Highline 2.0 tdi reflex sliver.
Did you notice any difference in ride height at the rear after fitting the shocks? I want to get a set to try and stop the rear wallowing around so much but I'm wondering if the shorter shock will cause the rear to sit lower?

Re: Mk4 Highline 2.0 tdi reflex sliver.
If dampers change the ride height even just a tiny bit, they are faulty.
They are there to dampen the bounce of the spring, not to support or supplement the spring.

Hi @sendgineer
No difference in height (that's down to spring position in the adjustable shackles).
Nice improvement stiffening up the rear, have a Whiteline ARB on the shopping list as these them to also help tighting up the rear end.

Hi mate,
Sorry for the late reply, wheels are 19x8.5 ET45 with 235/35 tyres (unbranded at the moment).
Mirrors are genuine bases, covers with aftermarket glass.

Nice build dude. How much did the carpets cost you ? Planning on doing the same to mine and also painting the light trims on the pillars in the cab to black
