Hey folks

Finally pick up my baby tonight, 57 diamond black gt sport tdi, with tinted rears and Qs factory done. First trip will be to the stealers to order my honeycomb grill but keep my gt badge on. been reading lost of posts lately and found a diy on how to change grill etc but i'll be dammed if i can find it again any ideas?
Is it just me or is there not a lot of aftermarket stuff out thet for the mk5.
a list of what i need to buy.

1.brushed facia forcentre dash, i'm told the r32 has this, is that correct and any ideas where to get?
2. metal pedals
3. cruise control , i know it's cheap for the stalf . is it easy to enable yourself via vagcom which i'm going to buy?
4. centre arm rest in the gray ,not bothered about ipod bits as i'm going to buy double din touchy sreen thing.
5. painted rear valance
6. set of 18 inch rims not decided which ones but that will be around feb time.

i've read the thread about cf badges, my mate runs a small internet company lambodoors.co.uk  and he gets loads of cf done for his skyline custom stuff etc etc i spoke quickly to him about this and he said the badges would be no prob to do, no price as of yet.
i am going to be working away for 4 months in two weeks time so i cannot organise this for the forum however if there is someone who will be willing to get name for group, then pse pass on your email and i will give it to him.

THANKS AGAIN

LOOKING FWD TO BEING IN THE GT CLUB.

Enjoy the car. For £10k sounds like a steal.  :smug:
Remember with any engine performace upgrades, do consider limitations of tyres, brakes and suspension at high speeds/cornering etc...

17" rims giver better ride and as a mag tested, faster round the track..

From what I've read cruise is a £125 fitted by VW. If doing yourself, need VCDS to activate it. Some owners have said a wire needs to be run as well. Not sure from where to where.. :huh:
