Looking good, I do like myself a nice red MK5.

Remap really does transform the car, you'll love it. Because the Monza 2s are diamond cut it isn't your average wheel refurb job. Many members have used these guys - http://www.lepsons.com/ - who can refurb these wheels and have been happy. Mine are getting refurbed and painted soon (admittedly not Monza 2s) and will be sent to these lads.

I have read your build thread and want to take some inspiration from yours.. What exhaust system are you running again, and is it loud?? I was wondering about this combo.....

My build thread? I dont know one lol :undecided:

Im running a full turbo back Milltek non resonated system. I've found that it isn't too loud and I find it perfect for the car (just, anything louder and it would be too loud and it can sometimes get a bit boomy on the motorway when you accelerate a bit, all very minor).

The links youve posted are fine, don't forget you need to get the cat back system aswell as the downpipe. Gives you shiney new exhaust pipes :cool:

Oh..  :embarassed: have read something about your car, where you have put all your mods and stuff on.. Haven't I??  :undecided:

I was just thinking about a full cat back, but want it to stay nice and quiet and also be nice and cheap!! Had people used cheaper systems I.e..

Wheel re-furb & replace the broken spot light & will be spot on.

I have had a price for the refurb.. £500!!!!! Would they look ok if they where powder coated in a similar colour to standard??? So I don't know what to do, ideally I want some bbs ch's for it.

That is the reason I bought this one, because it needed a few little things I can play with to make it perfect!! :-)
