5 minutes into owning a new car and Moog already put cable ties on it, DIY tuners around the world are so proud right now 🤣. Joking aside the car looks awesome. But Moog you said to vote around the lip kit but you only showed the front lip, it’s hard to say unless we see the kit as a whole. I think the front lip is fine but it’ll come down to if you can live with the OCD of the logo being offset 😂 I personally like the offset logo.

When I first started watching MCM 10+ years ago I was broke and sad driving my Civic Hybrid with its poop CVT. A decade and a Ford Focus later, I put my name down on a Golf R shortly before it came to Australia (I live in Canada) and picked it up two weeks ago. This also was the first time I ever bought a new car --due to the whole being broke thing. I definitely must've been influenced by MCM to end up going for such a specimen of a car and am stoked to follow Moog on his journey modifying his Mk8.

I can't recommend 3M PPF highly enough. I've used it on my front corner lights, the sidemarkers/indicators and of course the pop-up lights. I've also used it on the place where I needed it the most on my car, which was the tail lights. being an 80's car with degrading plastics and bad UV rot, I needed something to protect the lenses from being any worse, which is where the PPF (and specifically 3M) came into the picture. after sanding them down with 1500 wet/dry and washing them, they got PPF coated and look fresher than when they left the showroom. it's also UV resistant, self-healing (some kind of black magic in that) and was piss-easy to apply. great episode Moog.

Not taking anything away from the guys, love their work but there is more going on in the background than you and me realise.

I used to work at a dealership doing pre delivery inspections & cleans, & almost every brand new car I worked on would have less than 6kms on the clock. So being that this is the first MK8 Golf R in the country, I’d say a few of the salesmen have definitely taken this for a spin around the block a few times for it to end up being delivered with 14kms. Either way, the car looks amazing after the paint correction, and I’d definitely put the lip kit on as well. Great video as always!

@MCM - you should grab an OBDeleven which will let you easily adjust change car settings. From enabled undertake with ACC, to adjusting the speedo calibration and everything in between. Best thing I ever purchased for my golf!.. Changes that are a must do, - disable starting vibration reduction (stops the car from applying the brakes if you get any slight wheel slip, which causes the thudding) - enable press and hold lock/unlock on key to wind windows up/down. - allow door locking while engine is running. - enable a selection of colours for the dash/infotainment accents. - disable start stop at all times. - don't turn off DRLs when indicator is active. - disable menu/input lockouts while driving. - enable undertaking while using ACC (the car will literally slow down to the same speed as a car on the right, rather than continuing past). - set soundaktor percentage (0-100%) - change throttle input curve to "direct" (by default the throttle ramps up and down in attempt to smooth the drive). It's really endless.

Very tasteful mods (even if i do prefer blue/silver vs blue/black!). Correction and film makes it look spectacular - front lip and skirts will top it off, I think. Congrats on the new .:Ride!

That is awesome. Great mods, absolutely agree with the black. I'll be trying to pick one of these up in 3 years... used. Would love to get into a VW Golf. The US is sorely lacking in hot hatches. I think the sticker on the front lip is meant to be offset because it's painful trying to get something like that perfectly centered. But if it's purposely offset then it always looks stylish.

See a tonne of Focus STs over here in the UK on the owners page I'm a member of with them fitted and just think they look really tacked on and don't help the overall look. It's the main reason I've kept it off my Mk3. But each to their own 👍

Love that the valve system in that golf R is exactly the same as my MK8 fiesta st. Just a note for the valve, after a while the spring compresses too much and it gets rattly when the valves shut. If that happens put a little piece of rubber in the motor side, it helps. Had to do it with mine with the miltek exhaust.

So good to see you remedy the mistake of getting rid of your previous Golf R... The Audi didn't quite cut it. I think the White GolfR was my favorite build. It was a good looking daily with heaps of Power.. It is quite amazing how much larger the new exhaust is than stock. It sounds a bit more aggressive but it sure looks a whole lot better. Your anti chrome stance is growing on me. The drop was a bit low for my taste but it is your ride. I knew as soon as I seen the car in the dealer those mirror caps were getting altered. Are the new wheels and tires lighter than stock or is it just cosmetic? The KIT always seems to fit Moogs personality and it does look better when he's done most of the time.. Now add the Chopped Sticker.. I can't wait to see Marty get to go full Mark8 mods on the MIRA - Scion - Toyota... Oh whatever that 3 cylinder nugget is. Note: I guess if your going to pay that much for a car and then put a substantial amount of money into modifying it you might as well go the extra mile and protect your investment. I don't think my car is worth the amount of money that was spent on the mods and protection which is probably why I like watching this show.. Nuggets to exotics.. so much fun. Thanks and best wishes on repairing the vandalized GTi-R.
