If you are budgeting for mods, keep aside at least RM20k minimum

20k inclusive of what bro? i mean what are the mods that you have listed under this 20k budget?

Just went to vw Jln Ipoh to top up my E.O. The service manager showed me their big tong. Now I know why our e.o burns so fast. They r using the short interval oil 502/505. Castrol magnetic 5w-40. I called up castrol hq ,Too bad castrol Malaysia dun carry d edge 5w-30 which is d recommended long service interval oil.

3k for new rims
16k for Razor bodykit
1k for aluminium pedals



Plenty of different mods you can do with that budget. So it depends on whether you are into just pure looks or performance or even both.

So thats how they get customers back to the SC center to keep on refilling their E.O. Gonna go outside and buy my own oil already then. Lasts longer!

Hi guys,

guys if i just change the catless downpipe but keep stock muffler any difference?
or must change downpipe + aftermarket muffler ?

bro kavia, you seem to be swinging in & out of your decision to get a vw but yet u keep talking about modding your "future" car. looks like the poison is very potent
getting the RCD510 & R LED rear lights shouldn't be a problem with customs. i just put my "replaced" stuff in my boot & drive through. the malaysian side did stop me but i just wound down my window & said "takde barang" and the officer waved me on
not too sure about tires & rims though....... haven't got mine changed.

wah...ur car so new....and u r ready to void the warranty??

hrmm... void warranty or not im sure if that is voiding..
cause i asked the sales guy he said some parts can be modded just dont touch the engine and ecu..
i ask him if i change exhaust system to ABT or other aftermarket will it void the warranty.. he said wont..
can always change back to stock if anything goes wrong

now my plans are black rims, golf R led and APR exhaust

actually the 1st day i got my car i was already considering removing the resonator hahah
just scared my car will sound like lorry.. but from some youtube videos it sounds quite ok

Please let me know if you can find it dude and the price as well... probably i wanna buy a few bottles to simpan ..


itulah Volkswagen Malaysia for you .... hahaha.... i think i'll probably get a few bottles of the 5w-30 Edge fr elsewhere lah ... and sync both cars to that oil...

actually surprisingly just now even my dipstick showed below min level .. but the SC just top up abt less than 1L and it's already up to max mark ?

A word of advise, don't believe what the sales guys tell you. They are not the ones filling in the warranty claims form to VGM. They are only there to sell cars. Like what was mentioned by forumer Yan, its best you get to know the Service manager. That way you can be a little bit more relaxed

Look what my friendly mailman delivered to me:



This is what it should look like once I decide what to use to glue this thing:



I've seen people put red tape beneath so that the "GTI" font will be red. Think I'll stick with black.

As usual, I ended up buying two of these as the seller would not sell me only one (these originally come as a pair ... left and right). I negotiated and he agreed to sell me two left sided ones. Will sell it off here if my buddy is not interested. Will keep you all posted.

And finally, the arrival of awesomeness ( R LED lights ... thanks to jwrx ):



Can't wait to get these installed along with my unibrace

bro how much did u buy the GTI badge?
is that for the handle adjuster for the seats?

Ya man, pics were taken from my car ... around RM80 for a pair with shipping. Can also get the blank ones without GTI lettering.

Joking aside ... our driver side no need cause electrically adjustable. This one just for the passenger side. Hence, why from the picture you'll notice that I have two left sided inserts.
