Looks good. Love the tail lights.

[Lukev85]

Looks nice, keep up the good work

[Lukev85]

BTW is that a miltek exhaust?

[rayray086]

Yeah, like the smoked tails. The chrome and blacked out look goes well I reckon! You'll have to come out to one of our meets.

[nashan]

Yeah definately! Ive been wanted to come to a meet for a while.

I never thought id actually own a car with chrome rims. I wanted the same rims originally in black and polished finished but couldn't get them. But i love the chrome and am glad i got them over the black ones. They suit the car really well.

And no its not a miltek, just a stocko but looking to get a miltek in the near future!

Any ideas for next mods?

[Lukev85]

Miltek exhaust system. It will make your Bora sound like a V8.

Costly item though, mine cost bout $4000

[DubSteve]

Miltek don't cost that much! Thats a waste!

[BL33SU]

hey how did you tint your taillights? im looking at doing the same.

[nashan]

You can buy a special light tinting spray paint from most auto places. Ie autoone. Its about $15 and tajes about an hour. Give them about 3 coats but only light coats. Its better to go a little at a time otherwise it'll look blotchy, then you'll prob wanna give them a coat of clear coat for the shine. Im still yet to do that. Has anyone done they're headlights while on the topic???

[BL33SU]

damn i dont wanna spray tint it, might bodge it up. was looking for the stick on film tint stuff.

[GermanwithaVdub]

the mafia's in town :P hehe nah it looks awsome, very badass.

for next mods my vote would be take off the rear spoiler and get some coilovers to drop it :) and of course a chip if you havent already done so ;)

[VWEAPN]

love the car. yes do take the spoiler off will look much better.
1DUB2C ive seen one of the guys spray there MKV tail lights with that stuff. it turned out really well i couldnt believe it was a home job.

[nashan]

Yeah it really isnt a hard joband not easy to bodge up. Im no painter by trade but mine came out really good. As long as you do light coats and try to spray it evenly you shouldnt have any problems. And if you manage to bodge it up theres always metho or something similar! Just make sure you take the light out of the car before doing it :D

[Lukev85]

Ive got reciepts of a full miltek exhaust which cost $4000. Apparently its the best of the best. I reckon worth it

fuk dats d biggest rip off for a exhuast.. and its n/a also which wouldnt give much gains for $4k. custom would cost about 1k and do d same job.

Better be gold plated for that much cause you got ripped off if thats the case!

Remus is alot better but thats another story and thread!

[dre211]

yeh i agree with the guys about the spolier. I took mine off on the day the car arrived. If you are planning to take it off ive got good and bad news for you. Good news is that there are no screws going into the bootlid as there are brackets on the edges of the bootlid that hold it in place.

Bad news is that there is also silicon holding the wing in place so after your pull it off there is silicon stuck to you bootlid. I tried a number of ways to get it off starting by just picking at it which got most of it off. Theres not much cleaning agents out there that you can use as they all seem to fade the clear finish (especially noticable on black) In the end i ended getting the whole rear end of my car resprayed as there were other marks and scratches that i wanted to get rid of.

I have a pic below before the respray and if you look closely you can see the silicon where the wing was attached.

Oh yeah and also IMO dump the car before you do anything else, thats if you havent already done so

His right Miltek's are the best around.

Yes u pay top dollar for it but if u want the best of the best for performance and sound Miltek is the one.

All the Audi guys run it and are very happy with them

I have heard there are a few places asking carzy money for a Miltek's but there are others like European Autotech that ask reasonable money for them.

But if u drive a car thats worth $16K there's no use buying one cos its about a third of hat the car costs lol.

My MTM exhaust cost 1000 Euro's just for the back box but i got it for $200 second hand thanks to George ;)

[BTJ]

i don't see the issue with the spoiler. i know a lot of people think they aer over the top or ugly but i think it helps finish off the rear end of the car quite nicely.

its not some giant whale tail hanging off the back so its not to OTT.

just a thought...

Dude, are you sure? Did it include headers, downpipe, cat, and 24carat gold tailpipes? Ive had quotes ranging from US$700 to 800 plus shipping. I reckon all up, a Milltek for a Bora V6 should cost ~AUD$1500-1700 including fitting.

[MattyT]

4k for an exhaust is sheer insanity, especially when the ricer guys are running around with 600 dollar chinese steel pipes from the turbo back!

[gareth_oau]

I put a high spec custom twin exhaust on my FPV GT-P and that was $4k. the hi flow cats alone were $1k.

The sound is absolutely sensational and $4k well spent.

I can imagine that any poor quality exhaust will cost little, but will sound like someone farting in a bottle.
