Mk7 Golf R Discussion Thread

[tcat99]

Thanks for posting the article Topcat: another win for the R!

No worries Andrew7- hopefully it is readable. I'm not much of a tech head so the photos are a bit 'analogue'- feel free to post an online version if there is one.

Here are the Milltek Cerakote Black Velvet Oval Tips, non-resonated catback fitted today.

Love the sound, not overpowering for myself or my partner.

Waiting on delivery of my white R and im considering plasti dipping the cadiz in gloss black to add more contrast between black and white. (dont torch me with comments its just spontaneous thinking at the moment). Im looking for a photo of the cadiz sprayed all black to see what it looks like. Anyone come across one yet?

1st phot is more so the contrast. I think they are the mk6 R rims
These images i found earlier and have saved for myself but show the 19" painted black as previously shown in another thread ages ago
Either way i have seen a couple of white R's now with black aftermarket rims and they look good, especially when finished with a black roof and mirrors.

Im getting a mate to wrap my roof and mirrors black just for a trial on my lapiz blue R so i wonder how that will go(around Dec-Jan).I thought it suited the 6R good so if anyone has any opinions on that let them fly.

I took delivery of my white R last week and dropped it straight into pro vinyl in Sydney. My wheels are getting painted gloss black as well as other things being wrapped. I'll upload a couple of pictures tomorrow when I pick it up

Another pure white owner here very interested to see how the Cadiz rims looked painted gloss black. I have to take the rims off anyway to instal the R centre caps so I figure why not paint them as well

In mean time you can have fun with the german configurator you can see how it looks with the prets in black over there.
