    BLKJETTA - All up it cost about $1300. This was during the APR sale. I defintely love the car even more since the 'upgrade' as I have more power if needed and my fuel economy hasn't changed a bit! I drive approximately 150 kms daily so the car gets a good workout!

    fitted an ARK Design exhaust and some aftermarket HID's over the weekend

    The exhaust was cheap for stainless steel mandrel bent and sounds pretty cool, bit of crackle on downshift, seemingly louder turbo spool and a nice DSG pop! from all reports sounds tough from outside the car

    The HID's i'm not so sure about, i got flashed literally 1 km away from my house on the test drive. They definitely illuminate well, however I think the RHS headlight is aimed too high, if i cant work out how to fix it i'll have to take them out. It was a good idea at the time but i dont want to be 'that guy'

    Not only are they fail, they're massively annoying, incredibly illegal, and bloody dangerous to other drivers. Go buy some Projector Lenses and all shall be forgiven!

    Oh I'm not belting him at all, just stating some opinions. There's a couple of people around my area with Golfs who shall remain nameless that run HID's in reflectors and I plead with them to get some Projector Lights. They look better in Projectors anyway.
