R-line for the win. Just get some Audi TT pedals to complement the base.

I think with Anni/R32 trim that would be :cool:

I've got black trim though, so i'm trying to have as little silver/brush as i can, i don't want to make it look odd, that's why i'm wondering about this base ring!

I noticed as well yesterday the door handles (Ones you use to open the door.) are crome which looks rubbish, can these be changed?

I have all black inside and not hesitating when buying the R line knob as it'll go with my audi tt pedals. It's bloody expensive though :|

The door handles can be changed for brush aluminum.

I've got a Bora knob on mine but I thin kI'll be swapping it eventually for a Lupo GTI item as I like the look of these the more I see them

Yes lupo GTI is cool just gave one i had to Ivor. Should be some pics of it fitted in his mk4 soon  :smiley:

Almost forgot!!! :D

Have I fitted the surround correctly, though?  I did take it as you were supposed to use your old surround, as the Lupo surround seemed a completely different shape?? :undecided:

cheers mate :afro: had the idea when i decided to change the front "gti" grille badge its just the 25th anni badge that i used just stuck/spaced the letters back on to the backing after removing the foam/adhesive and apllied with a dab of superglue to the letters and put it on didnt want to just throw em away so thought that would be a subtle mod oh and the ashtray lid does slide back to acess the cig light/12v socket to  :wink:
