hi all,
my friend has a 1.8T mk4 and hes been looking for some R32 interior parts for a while, the brushed metal door inserts and dash bits. think the cheapest weve found is £200! anyone got any cheaper options for the same sorta look?
also hes looking for an R32 exhaust back section, hes found a miltec one i think but are there any cheaper manufacturers that do this exhaust for cheaper? i know you get what you pay for but parts are so expensive for mk4s! i have a mk3 and the difference in cost for parts seems to be quite a lot.
thanks for any help guys.

Cheapest option for the trim is to vinyl wrap it silver or carbon loads of guides on how to do it and many guys on here have done it!! As for the exhaust check eBay and the classifieds on ukmk4s often are r32 1.8t exhausts on there

Theres a breaker in derby (matlock) he comes highly recomended by moi :smug: realy sound bloke. Im sure he has the brush steel surround from an r32 and im positive he has the drivers door handle. His number is 07836 338330. His got a few anni stuff. Loads of other bits and bobs. Tell him sharki gave you the number.

Net Optic trim from some Bora's can be sanded down to give the brushed aluminium look like R32 trim. I did it to mine:

As for exhaust, second hand Milltek or a custom system are your options

Yeah, loads on eBay as well. You can get the radio surround/aircon/diag port cover/ashtray and all door pulls

I hate the fact that everyone sands down bora net optic trim to get r32. I think the net optic is a lot better. Especially the silver/grey net optic from the us cars. I'd proberbly swap my r trim for it.
-
which model bora is it from? do all the interior bits fit? the only bits i found on ebay are the dial surrounds, not found the stereo surround or door pulls.
if you mate wants to sell a set how much do you think?

I got all parts including all 4 door handles for £50 delivered. Keep looking, there are bargains to be had.

just realized bora's are all 5dr arnt they? this mk4 is 3dr so the handles wudnt fit wud they? wud you split the bits or not?
-
Are the handles not all the same? You just dont need the rear ones.

They are the same shape but drivers handle has controls for rear windows

There's someone on mkivuk selling a Milltek R32 style exhaust for £140. I think you'd be hard pushed to find anything cheaper. Looks in good nick too!
