Anyone retro fitted R-line body kit to Tiguan Sport? Got pics? Like the front and rear bumpers on R-line, but couldn't be bothered waiting for a demo model to become available, and not fussed about stupid R on headrests anyway, my sports seats are pretty cool anyway. Don't think I'd like a white R-line anyway, stands out to much, and on my black tiggy bumpers are colour co-ordinated anyway, but like the two tone effect of R-line front and rear bumpers.

Put a 4Motion badge on it so far, think position is wrong and should have right aligned it, but not really bothered, doesn't look bad, and gives something different for VW enthusiasts to think about. Have a space in my GT T(DI) badge on MK4.

Fancy changing Golf badge to US spec Rabbit though, so could do same on Tiggy...

Fancy one of these also:

fitted to center consul lower storage space, if it fits in.

Then could plug in iPhone/MacBook Pro via USB, and have sound via Bluetooth module....

Looking at full Mac/Vdub integration over longer term. Should be able to get a Mac Mini in the glove box..

It can already park itself he-he so maybe with an integrated Mac running Snow Leopard it will be able to drive itself just like the LoveBug :)

Or, since it's a fold down monitor, could fit it to dashboard top in tray thing, but don't think it would be legal there as it would block visabilty, so better of down in centre console so it's out of sight when driving.

Kit used on B&B Tiguan looks way better then R-line:

If can add 7" to console and Mac mini in glovebox - could have it plugged into VAGcom all the time, make a little custom VM for it

Wonder what a black tiggy would look like if lower skirt front and back and side trims are done in chrome (or maybe silver) to achieve same kind of contrast as the white B&B
