    Looks lovely mate :thumbup:

    Those R32 bumpers looks soooo good compared to the original ones. Wouldn't mind a set on mine, but cant afford another project just yet.

    had a quick look at both your motors very nice m8, bet that mk5 engine wasn't cheap but bet its worth it, custom codes have new re maps that pump them up to about 280bhp but no prices as yet check it out dude, was tempted my self, how much work is involved is it a simple swap? or is a ecu needed, codeing exhaust? can u let me know dude very intrested!!

    not as bad as you would think 1799.99 plus delivery
    i still have to fit the mk4 r32 ecu and loom not sure what i'm doing about the exhaust flaper but i can live with the fault code
    i have a r32 exhaust and a milltek centre section to go on
    your's would be less work than mine's was
    but with the mk5 engine you need to swap over a few of bits

    sounds like u can get bargains out there rear ones are cheaper to buy but then u need to get an exhorts and fit it this is probaly why there cheaper, I'm always looking out for stuff so if I find any going cheap ill let u know buddy!! plus when your looking for stuff it's always dear but once you've got what u want you see it going the next day for hardly nothing lol.
