I bought this new in 2002 with winter pack, sunroof and oetinger rear spoiler. Since then I've made some changes :-

ENGINE- APR Chip with Cruise control, Miltec sport CAT, custom Exhaust, GFB dump valve.

BODY- Golf Anni kit, caractere grill, V6 rear valence, FK rear lights, Boot infill, eyebrows.

CHASSIS- FK Coilovers, Audi TT wheels with Goodyear F1's

INTERIOR- full heated leather, R32 pedals, gauges in lower stereo slot.

I havent seen many 1.8T Bora's in the UK so I am interested to see how many are on this forum.

Looking good mate, very nice indeed.

That looks absolutely lovely mate, the ONLY thing i'd change on it is the rear lights to OEM 2004 ones!

 

[GaryM]

Very nice indeed - love the front grille.

Why didnt you go for the Milltek catback?

 

[boraboy]

I had a Jetex Cat back when I bought the cat, and when I fitted the V6 rear valance the twin pipes for 1.8T models didn't line up with the cut out on the valance so I had a rear box made to fit.

Looks the biz mate! I guess the tail lights are not to my liking BUT if we all had the same looks on our motors we would be pretty boring! It's nice to see things different for a change

 

[Beddie]

Very nice mate, love the ride height and the way it sits, how do you find the ride with the coilovers/18's fitted, as i will be lowering my Bora soon but don't really want to completely ruin the ride quality

BTW, was your car featured in the readers ride's section of VWmotoring mag a few months back?

Again mate,lovely car, only thing i would change personally is the rear lights, i'm not a big fan of lexus style lights and IMO the US OEM Jetta 2004 tails would look a treat on your car

But hey, different strokes for different folks and all that...[]

 

[Beddie]

BTW mate, i think there is only one other 1.8T Bora on the forum IIRC, so it looks like you are in an exclusive group! []

 

[Carlos]

Like it! []

 

[boraboy]

I find the ride to be a bit bouncy sometimes, but I've got standard bump stops which could be the problem.

And yes it was in VW motoring around Christmas, the same issue as the silver TDI Sport from Ireland.

 

[unikarl]

Car looks great mate. I would not normally say this but I actually think that the rear lights suit your car as they have the black insides on a black car.

Good work.

 

[M22RCO]

nearly as good as mine!!! only joking looking great mate

 

[02 Bora]

wow looks great [!].

Good choice of styling extra's (apart from those rear clusters).

Keep up the good work......what's planned next? - tints ?

 

[boraboy]

Wasn't planning on doing tints, next is to fit sound system properly then the turbo pipework and maybe a different intercooler.

Another Bora owner, excellent!!

I like the front end mate but as everyone says not too sure about the rearlamps? Each to their own though!!

What make is the boot blend? Looks good IMO!!

 

[boraboy]

the boot blend is by Mattig. Got it from R&A for ?100.

Not 100% about the rear lights myself but I've only seen them on R&A's demo car so there still different.

 

[cage]

I likey, I reckon you should lose the rear lights and maybe tint the windows IMO.

 

[25thAE thompson]

looks like a bad boy (bad in a good way), not sure about the light either

 

[ian_p]

keep the rear lights and tint the windows....

Very nice!!!

[craigv]

is the boot blend just stuck on??

also the front spoiler was it easy to fit as i was sure the golf bumper was a different size from the bora???
