What Accessories are you buying for your MK6 Golf?

SF- I have an unused front blue enamel R badge if you want it. Doubt I will use it. 3m adhesive, enamel blue background, stainless The one I showed you a while back.

You just got promoted to bestest friend

[Candyman]

No worries mate. Will be back this weekend.

My engine cover badge is somewhere between Brisbane and Salt.

Serves me right for rushing to put it on without an alcohol wipe to remove oil and dirt first ....

Will see if I can get a couple for us.

I want the R engine badging..

Like this silverfox? I got this badge off ebay a few weeks ago ($15 or so). Its not an original badge but it looks great - good quality.

He might be referring to one I got from Germany specifically for the engine cover

I also got two badges like the one you showed but in stainless and with blue enamel shadow (off eBay). I am giving one of these to SF as I have no need for it.

Just got home

Few parcels for the R in the doorstep

This one for example (looks the same as my old one in my GTI but thought it was meant to new version)

more piccies of goodies required

P3 Gauge, other minor stuff. Nothing too important. Only just got home. Kinda tired after 10 hours of driving and unpacking. Was a good trip - no mishaps (stone chips, windscreen damage, flat tyres etc)

Car returned 7.8 l/100km on the way home without even trying (which included 2 days around Kinsgcliffe of sightseeing - ie twisties). Had a big detour before Benalla due to the major truck accident. We were lucky to get through before the 5 km queues started !

Car needs a wash - tomorrow.

Welcome home.. ease into it.. sounds like you bed the engine in well

[Candyman]

Yes mate

Even after only the 3000 km we put on it, the engine has clearly started it's life and improving.

I see no need to change the car in anyway. In the city, on the freeway and on the dirt/gravel, it didn't fail.

Simply superb. The DSG also was faultless. such an improvement over our MKV

Can't believe how much better it is overall than out GTI. such a great car. Definitely a keeper.

[SilvrFoxX]

I keep em for about 5 years.. I figure you have enjoyed the hell out of them by then and something else is starting to tempt you.. but for the moment the R seems to tick all the boxes

That looks exactly the same as what I purchased about 6 months ago. Be interesting to know what might be different about it. Have they used rubbber black grips now? It's the only thing that I would think needed to be improved. Either way it finishes it off nicely when fitted.

Hey Candyman, did you (or anyone else) order a P3 gauge when the Australian group buy was going? Mine is still stuck somewhere between the US and Australia according to USPS tracking, is anyone else waiting on theirs?

[PTW]

I'm still deciding between an Akubra or bowls hat for the back shelf, dilemma's

[Candyman]

Futori

I have mine from the group buy

Installing it tomorrow if it isn't raining
