    Thanks Transporter. I will definitely wait for a bit. In the meantime, for the tune do we need to upgrade the intake?

    Not a problem for some as they are willing to take that risk. I’d definitely wait 12Months, just to make sure that the ECU is ok. Flashing it back to stock and go and claim your warranty like the car was never tuned doesn’t have to work, since the VW will figure out that the car was running outside of the factory parameters.

With the Bluefin you get the controller so if I ever want to go back to stock I don't need to go revisit the APR dealer, I'd just reach out to the guys at superchips for support and do it myself.

    In short would I recommend the Bluefin tune? Yes. Save the extra money for other mods!

    Anyway in summary I painted all the grey stuff on my Tiguan on my 162TSI. Looks much nicer and fitted the R line steering wheel.
    Are you using Tapatalk on your phone? Or just the web version. I find that Tapatalk app is better on a mobile.

    Not at this stage. I do like the extra ground clearance I get from the Tiguan over my previous S3.

    Thinking of getting the front lip and sides also?

    Here are some photos I took after fitting it.

    It's subtle but I like the look of it as if it was factory with all the black plastic bits that come part of the R Line package

    I know this isn’t a Tiguan in the video, but would this method be close to, if not the same in order swap out without having to pop off the mirror in order to drop in dynamic turn signals for the side view mirrors? Asking since mine arrived this morning. Thank you!
