    must have accessories?

    Are you talking genuine accessories at point of sale or aftermarket upgrades?

    There's a few things you ought to buy with the car and these include things like bi-xenons as it actually costs more to add them later.

    For aftermarket upgrades the RCD/RNS510, flappy paddle steering wheel, chrome door switches, door warning lights and LED upgrades add some bling and rate between easy and moderate in terms of DIY difficulty.

    Must have performance mods (apart from an ECU tune) are a DSG tune and a decent sounding exhaust

    Tiguan door moulding (r line).
    Prevents others damaging your car, especially at shopping centers.

    If another set of wheels could be considered an accessory, then it's kind of up there with 'must haves'... Makes yours stand out & individualizes yours from every other one out there!

    I reckon if there were a documented medical condition describing people with a fear of this happening, i would be close to having it!
    Probably be called 'supermarkaphobia', or something similar...

    I purchased them online from http://www.partswebsite.com/volkswagenpartscheap/
    Cost is about $400 then getting them sprayed and baked another $200.
    Will post some pictures on the weekend.
    The good thing is they covered existing scratches and dents from people who don't care about your ride.
