If you plan to modify mk8 Golf R, GTI or most other VWs, these are the mods I feel are the best first mods to make. These mods are pretty affordable, improve the car greatly, and make driving an owning the MK8 Golf R all around better. Even if you plan to further modify the MK8 Golf R, you have to start modifying somewhere. I think these are the best first modifications you can make.
