was done very very cheap by a good mate of mine...i paid £1k for full smoothing of doors and bumpers and all the car to be sprayed apart from the boot!

questions welcome...

Seats loook huuuge! Also, get that momo wheel fitted properly :p

fitted properly...? seats are big but hold me in place....i do have some electric S3 style recaros which i will probably trim and put in

The horn should look like this mate, totally flush round't' edges

I do like the colour of the suede inserts of your seats though, exact same colour as my false floor

i see...not sure if mine will ever sit flat. i dont have my horn on the button there either!

You get two metal rings with the boss mate, well you get one with the boss and one with the wheel. They are different sizes, one will make it sit flush, and the other will make it sit up out of the wheel.

ye, i think we didnt have the correct ring because the airbag had been deployed before! i can handle it as it is...hehe

just need to decide on red or black leather for the recaros

Depends what red it is. If it's like a darker red, then it will look sweet.

nice and dark, similar to what you get in the TT's is what id like

If it fits in with the rest of your interior do it. IMO to pull it off, door cards etc will all need trimming in the same material and perhaps bits of the dash etc.
