Black Forest Industries Presents: Project Schwarz - MK7 1.8T TSI

[MacaN]

You pull the boot by pressing in the sides of the boot material near center console (i suggest handbrake in upright position). It's just a bit of plastic that's barely clipped in. Pop that out, invert the boot, and the bit around the top bit is elastic and can be slid off the brake lever.

Thanks!!

Just be very careful with the silver plastic trim. Make sure you search around here and/or the vortex to find out exactly how to release the retaining tabs...

I as well as many others have destroyed the clips

Amazing!!! Happy to see this project is still rolling!

Brakes look great! What size are the rear rotors?

Red rear badge insert to match the hubs would look awesome.

Last, is that the maxton cup lip?

Rear rotors are the stock units painted.

Yes! that is a Maxton cup lip

Are the fog lights functional? If so, how did you go about getting them wired up & working?

Body kit looks great. Glad to see you all are still upgrading the 1.8.

The only time I felt like the is20 would have been a better match for the 5spd is on autocross, otherwise, is38 is awesome.

Never considered control arm bushings to be a weak point until seeing this. Now I have another part to ponder
