also test fitted the R32 spoiler and hatch's bumper notch filler thing:

This car is going to be super smoooth! very similar to what im doing atm

ordering an r32 kit also, already have it lowered and 19" rs4 reps on it although mine is white tinted windows and a few other little things but the r32 kit will look really nice!

looks like your pouring a fair bit of money into this nice little project!

Good luck.

Where'd you get that?? Was thinking about something similar for the bora

[funkymonkey]

I'm not sold on the spoiler though. It fits up great, but it kinda ruins that smooth look I'm goin for. Might sell it.

Been reading up on boot poppers and swapping in beetle latches etc. looks a bit too hard basket, might just leave the lever in and just take off the badge.

not quite. was thinking clean shave, but using a bora electric boot lock solenoid and a beetle boot latch popper to make the hatch pop remotely and pop out more than usual so I can open it without the need for a lever. If that makes sense. Guy on UKMKIV's had a full writeup. Dunno if I cbf with it though.

also, found this today:

Is this what you're planning?

[dylan8]

Ahhh that'd be different again! Sounds good to me, You seem to know your stuff!
Wonder if i could hook up a boot popper as your thinking, have you done it before?

yeah thats what im thinking for mine, only difference is ill be leaving the grove that runs horizontally from the top of the number plate recess

[funkymonkey]

On a golf for a full brazilian you gotta remove the handle, which means to open the door it needs some sort of electric actuator (my car doesn't seem to have one ) and a popper to push the hatch out far enough so you can grab the side to open it.

It shouldn't be as difficult on a Bora, cos you've got that cutout and the latch where the license plate lights are. So all you have to do is shave the emblem and your done.

Never been a big fan of those bumper notch filler pieces, I actually like the way the hatch recesses into the bumper.

You bringing this bad boy to SEDF in feb?
