Nice work, those blackout grilles look so great. Here are other pics from my tiggy, better than the ones posted before.

Thanks to clip for hosting these pics!

Nice ride Sama.

That roof extension and the rims look really good on it.
The brown seat inserts don't really do it for me but the rest is brilliant.

Another photoshop creation for you.

Sweet photoshopping V! I'm loving the huge rims, pity they'd ride like concrete though

I'm quite liking that upholstery Sama, pretty sure we don't get that colour over here? Ultraleggeras are sooooooooooooo sweet.

I swear that i read in one of the golf threads on here that you can get the hard plastic mesh from Bunnings.

I could have made the wheels smaller but it makes them more pronounced when they are bigger.
Shouldn't be going for anything more than 19" on the tig or you will lose ride quality.
I will be lining up a set of 18" wheels when i buy mine.

I think 18"s are the way to go, you still get to use 50 series tyres then which would give you a reasonably comfortable ride.

Great photos, Tig, and plates mate!
I thought about getting those exact plates - until I saw how expensive ACT was for personalised plate!s!

Was fitting too - as not only do I have a Tiguan 147TSI, but my last car was an Alfa 147!

Took these from VWVortex, not my tig.

If only we got that nice blue colour here.
Looks good with the painted plastic bits.

You don't get that blue in Ausi ?? it's probably the most common colour World wide, certainly in NA and Europe and it's big here in NZ too.
