Today is the start of my modding program on my TDi caddy...my plans for the caddy as follows

Mk5 golf R32 wheels
Coilovers
Touran front with Leon cupra R front splitter
Full colour code, bumpers, side protector strips, mirrors, handles and sliding door rail cover
De-badge rear
Mk5 Golf GTi seats
Remap

I will up date this post as and when i do my mods, hope to have it all done say in 6-8 weeks, just have to source coilovers amd touran front thats my next task

Today started with a road trip to Reading to pick up some Genuine R32 alloys with 2 good tyres the other two are worn off ebay ( got him to end the auction ;) )
I came home gave them a bleedy good clean and trial fitted one on the rear, fit like a glove :evil:
