What have you done to your mk4 (golf/bora) today?

[aaron001au]

With a statement like that interior pics should be mandatory

RolfGolf here are some pic's installed !

[Brisbane's Bora]

What parts have the maroon colour? More pics required ...

Just did all of the pillars and the sunroof motor cover in a maroon fabric, honestly still on the fence about it. Only took a couple of hours

Seats are looking good! Are any of those golfs at the wreckers black leather interiored or GTIs?

Eventually thats the plan or get some Bora R bumpers..... Turbos sucking all the money first though.

Loving the black B pillar - just cleans that top line - hoping mine will look that good.

Always something more to do though ... I've just ordered upgraded brakes from USRT. Are you shaving your bumpers?

Red ties in well with the door trim fabric ... The original Recaros are a comfy seat so you can't go wrong.

Yes, sometimes the change can be a little shocking - I stuck with black for my door trims for that reason.
P.S. Have heated black leather sports seats for sale if you're after some (though transport might be a killer).

Love the Bora R look - really toughens up the front end.

Yeah just wish it wasn't like 2grand to get them over here then painting on top

You might want to check dealer pricing and availability in Australia - R-line bumpers for Mk4 Golf were only discontinued in 2012 according to Solitaire in Adelaide - not sure if Bora R-line would have been discontinued at the same time. Other Mk4 R32 parts weren't as expensive as I expected.

It's long shot but I'm sure the Bora R was still built in China after it was discontinued everywhere else. Could possibly locate parts there? Just an idea!!!

Priced up the upper timing chain parts at a local VW place. $480 and 4 weeks to get here. Glad i only ended up paying $125 or so shipped for them. And chucked in an R8 oil cap for $30ish

Took the wheels off to replace the swaybar bushes and decided to clean under the wheel arch liners at the same time - glad I did ...

Thats nothing lachlan when i took off the liners from the wreck it was three times as much! Cant believe they build up so much! :/

[RubAVeeDubDub]

For all you very knowledgable VeeDub MKIV owners - has anyone seen someone in Aus fit an Audi A4 B5 steering wheel to their MK4?

From what I read the Audi A4 b5 steering wheel does fit on the steering column but I'm not assured on the airbag functionality and the wiring. Usually I'd sus this out using a wiring diagram but I can't find one.

Anyone know anything?

Yeah, the first time I cleaned them out it was crazy ... I'm keeping an eye on them now as it's a prime area for rust.

How's the wiring for the conversion going?
