Over last few weeks, I've had seatbelts changed to black/red edging, gloss black seatbelt harness trim (not sure correct name) fitted, MOT, Brake Fluid Change/Upgrade to Racingline Braided lines/Fluid, Scorpion Non Resonated Catback system fitted & switched back from standard wheels to the BBS's




Looks effing superb my man

thank you

in ref to the seatbelts, i managed to pick them up brand new from VW parts supplier direct - they were down as actual one's for Edition 40, but tbh i think they are all the same. they did cost me fair bit at the time - few 100 but that was during lockdown & i'd had a few beers when i came across them so....yeah bought them lol

to have them done was few 100 also, but obv where i went i had the gloss black trims done at same time. plenty of seatbelt firms out there tho, which can do them cheaper if take mechanism's out and send to them

MOT and 034 Dogbone insert fitted today, got through with only a tyre advisory! Initial impressions of the insert are, it's great! Noticable but not uncomfortable despite what some people have said, although it is just the lower so that could be why.

Undoubtedly the best BBS choice. Looks great!

Following the lead of willni I received my newly re-trimmed wheel from Royal Steering Wheels today. With his help I plan to swap the trim/switches and fit it tomorrow. Hopefully I will post again when done.

Fitted a DTUK Pedalbox. Fitted and only a very quick test up the street. Can feel the difference but not blown away like I was expecting... Will know better after the run to work in the morning...

Much better in sport+, in fact maybe too responsive! Impressed with the difference!

It can be fine tuned Lee, you can adjust sport+ to increase/decrease sensitivity.

Yeah, dropped it a couple of notches for the drive home from work, better. I can see why people rave about them. Makes the car much more lively...
