Wouldn't it be cheaper to get your current seats re-trimmed and you could get them in the colour you want.
Or are the others more sporty?

Join Briskoda.net - its a great forum, plenty of info but not as lively as this one (i.e. boring!)
The carbon trims and foot rest look excellent, quite subtle but makes it look interesting!

its known as di noc mate and i F****d the first attempt up so tried again and it worked well.The secret is applying heat from a hairdryer! Search on youtube to see.
The sheet of it was from here(aint cheap but great stuff as you can see from the pics!)

Also have a few other bits too, got some black plasti dip to spray the front chrome grill to black as i think it will look better.Some vRS wheel badges but wont be going on till around july time when the wheels are refurbed.
Also have coming, a vagcom cable and vagcom software to "talk" to the car and change a few settings in the ecu and some green vRS valve caps! Pics up when i get chance!

Well! A quick update really.Im annoyed in one sense that the tuning box has been fitted and removed after a day as with it in, the bloody clutch slips on boost.However, after a chat with a good mate who works for a VW tuning company he reckons my vRS is remapped already as the box shouldnt give the standard clutch any problems.The clutch and DMF were replaced 3000 miles ago according to the service book.
So im selling it on and getting the car rolling roaded asap to see what its putting out!
Next update will include retro fitting the cruise when i get hold of vagcom!

Been a while so its update time!
Fitted the cruise control and enabled it in vagcom so its all working now with great results!!(68mpg!)
Repainted the calipers as they were flaking and looked a bit grubby and added some vrs decals(which you cant really see!) Pics of decals up later!
Also decided the chrome grill surround looked a bit "grandad" so sprayed it black with plastidip.
Next up is retrofitting reverse sensors that are on their way as you read.Update soon!

I want reversing sensors in the Jetta (as it's got a big ass). Are yours genuine VAG or aftermarket?
