as you said some people dont like the R conversion and i dont really, but i do respect the amount of effort and work your putting in so good crack :yes:

car looks sweet as but i think that some more unique/stand out alloys would have made this really epic if im being picky

are the R car mats from the stealers or?
Hehe, you only viewed pictures and didnt read it all ;) I only bought the wheels because they came up for sale. I am buying new wheels in a couple of months :) They just look better then the TSI wheels...

And the matts are from here - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Genuine-VW-Go ... 51cd11ba4a" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Fitted my black VW badge today, I was not sure when I bought it but I think with all the black grilles and wheels and eventually mirror caps I think it looks ok :)

Looks much better definitely right choice.

Did you do the back too ?
I have one but not sure if I want it on or not , is there clips or is it relying only on the glue pad things ?

Just done mine today, can't get it wrong, hardest part was getting the crap off the paint that has built up under the original badge.

Clay bar did the trick in the end, was a little tricky to get in the dips of the boot and bonnet.

Hi.

Massive respect for the work done to the car. Looks awesome and respect for showing how it's done as it really helps people who may not be as handy as yourself!

I wanted to ask where you went in Manchester for your exhaust and also how much did it cost. I'm after a full exhaust system for my Roco but it won't be same as yours. I just want it to sound aggressive lol

All the best mate and lovely car.

Thanks mate, appreciate your comment :)

I went to powervalve BCS - http://www.powervalve.co.uk" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Excellent service and top quality exhausts. I dealt with David on the day and he has the upmost respect for your cars, treats them with care, exactly how it should be done.
