Re: WHITE ROC CUSTOM INTERIOR

Bit Ott on the leather... the steering wheel looks a bit odd. Otherwise looks very good.

Re: Chassis notch ??

Notches are a ludicrously stupid idea. Purposefully introducing faults into metal... companies spend millions on equipment to identify faults in metal construct and they discard or recycle if any are found. Welding a small piece of metal to support the fault? I guess engineering isn't a strong point...

Re: Scotts Rocco GT Brief - Airlift Autopilot V2 ;)

My engineering degree must count for nothing then.

A metal plate will do nothing to fix a purposefully made fault.

I almost went for black but was worried about losing visibility of the wheel detail.

Really pleased with them!

You can't get 0-60 in 7 seconds, chipped or not, in a 140 TDI roc.

Re: Rear boot creak

Get some new boot stops... they cost £4 each. Or get vw to replace them under warranty.
