First job! Lower and wheels. I’ve never worked much on modern cars but built lots of classics so wasn’t shy about getting stuck in. Dark side flip kit and Eibach 60mm springs had it sitting just right for a practical work horse
Unfortunately the driveshaft decided it didn’t want to work anymore so replaced that but I overall everything went well. I fitted genuine bi xenon lights at the same time and got them coded by VCDS Diagnostics at the next day.
Then onto the interior. I managed to pick up a leather touran interior but fancied something nice up front so managed to get some Wingbacks locally. VCDS diagnostics again helped out with the electrics. While I was doing the rear seat install I took the opportunity to fit a touran centre console and leather armrest along with a black carpet set. Sound deadening and carpeting in the back will be done in the comin months along with an alcantara trimmed dash.
Here’s a sneak peek of what’s to come with paint - Golf 7.5gti hybrid front and mk8 r rear hybrid bumpers courtesy of Custom Hybrid Bumpers.
We’ll be doing a tailgate conversion and the colour change at work (Classic Car Revivals)
I’ve also had it mapped to 200 and adblue delete.
Can’t wait to move this on to the next stage.
