Default My Bora...

Bought the car last year completely standard 130TDI ST. 65k.

Within 2 weeks Coilies were on and had been remapped and a set of Spacers 20mm rear, 16mm front:



Early in the year we went down to surry and bought some wheels with the intention of refurbing but I lost interest and they sat in the garage for a while. A little different but thats what I wanted them to be..



Stayed like that for a while till i got bored and did the wheels in satin black:







Rocked the standard wheels in black up until today when I finally got round to finishing the refurb on my rims...

18x8.5 - ET25 - 215/40/18
18x10 - ET25 - 225/40/18

Excuse iPhone pics...














Went for a few pics with my mate the other night...













Current spec:
So far spec is as follows:

2003 VW BORA ST TDI 130
Diva Motorsport remap
Allard EGR Delete
2.5" turbo back exhaust
JOM Coilovers
FK 20mm 5x100-5x130 adaptors
18x8.5 - ET25 - 215/40/18
18x10 - ET25 - 225/40/18
4 motion front splitter
Stubby aerial
6000k HID's
US front Bumper with side markers

Dyno Graph at current 181bhp 328lb/ft:

Looks well that, although I'm not a fan of stretched tyres! Do they rub at the back?

Nice one. Love the stretched tires. Personally i would go for a set of BBS le mans. They look porn on yours.

looks cool that

but get some proper sized tyres on those rear wheels, looks awful with that stretch on the rear

fronts look spot on, and the stance is also spot on too, loving the us spec bumper
