    Re: need some advice

    You could get the Oettinger body kit. BTW, are you planning on lowering or just the wheels? What size?

    Re: need some advice

    I say do the CC mod anyways. Worse comes to worse you can always exchange headlights later on or just pop the amber cover back on. You can always get a splitter or a roof spoiler. Not sure what else there is as far as cosmetics go.

    nah i wouldnt want to do a kit. i love the way the car looks. since i already got the sport suspension with the s-line it's low enough for me especially in new york. i'm going 18 inch. i was thinking the cupra lip, but i don't want to drill holes into the front of the car since it's a lease.

    yeah i could do that, i was thinking about the cf roof spoiler but those are tough to come across. and splitter as i mentioned would be the cupra, but i dont want to drill into the front. if i could use adhesive i would but it wouldnt stay on or would it?

    Re: need some advice

    haha nah pete..i know i need the chip but not goin to do it.

    i like the all black s-line grille i have on now, just thinking about blacking out the front rings with vinyl.

    i thought about lamin-xing the side blinkers but think it would be alittle bit too much.

    any other ideas????

    Re: need some advice

    CC mod (if you like it)
    blackout the headlight housings
    smoked fender markers
    lamin-x on headlights/fogs
    yellow fog bulbs
    funny stickers if you're into that
    painted calipers
    do something crazy like a side exit exhaust too
    Ignorance is bliss.

    Re: need some advice

    I would personally go for black BBS centercaps to match the black Ti trim package. The only other thing red on your car is the lettering in S Line badge.

    Re: need some advice

    ^ i have brilliant black mirror housings in the picture.. the sun is just reflecting off them

    i've always been a fan of the red/gold caps but i'll see, your right the black would match well

    Re: need some advice

    ^ that's alitle too pricey in my eyes, i was originally looking for a used DTH cf roof spoiler. i kind of want one in that shape, but painted black. i know of caractere, eurocode, oettinger, but none of those fit the style that i want.
