Looks nice easyrider. You got some red LEDs? I like red as you can have them on fairly bright (50-60%) at night and its not distracting or detrimental to night vision.

yep, red leds are on their way. also bought a few extra footwell light clusters so i can swap from white led/red/stock without messing with bulbs.3t3p wrote:Looks nice easyrider.

Re: What did you do to your Scirocco today?
Front Tyres changed yesterday, they were at 2mm. Pirelli P Zero Rossos, they lasted about 15000 and 14 months - probably due to lots of motorway driving. Don't think that's great for Tyre life really .
Have my MOT today (hence the tyre change), so taking it in to VW

Re: What did you do to your Scirocco today?
Welcome - please post a picture of the Lola
Today I gave Walter his regular Friday clean - no wax today just a wash and dry - but I did have at my tailpipes with a Brillo pad and some autosol ( as recommended by the man Richard Tipper) followed by a cloth and autosol - results are promising and much much better than they were - also had a go at the silencer and found a load of muck to clean off under the rear valance - a happy day

Pre-washed with Citrus , then washed 2 bucket method, then light scratches & swirls removed with scratch remover by hand, then a coat of wax and she's gleaming again, aching arms!

Did a thorough outside cleaning yesterday; wash, clay, polish and wax. looks and feels very smooth
Before that i picked up a original Boot liner, and some caps for the wheelbolts. I'm ready for the summer
