My viper green scirocco

Post by tommy »

Hi all, I'm looking to rewrap the front grey vinyl (bonnet and front bumper) and just after some recommendations.

Does anyone know how much I should be looking at and any recommendations in the manchester area/north west?

I'm thinking of maybe carbon fibre to match the mirrors/spoiler but not sure if it's too much. [emoji848] any suggestions/comments are appreciated! Thanks!

BCS 200cell downpipe in to match the BCS catback
ImageImage
Original out Image

O2 sensor light on due to the sport cat -Simon at Ecotech in Buckley got it sorted (this can be done on its own - dont let people fool you to remapping unless you want to - it took two mins!) anyway I got talked into a remap which found out I had bluefin already. Long story short, ECU got locked/write protected by Bluefin, had to take the ECU out and Rhys did his thing...

an hour late, all sorted :clap: now running at 270bhp 8)

MPG from 27 to this after remap on a daily commute

I think this. Bet your chuffed with the new power increase!

I think the carbon spoiler suits your motor, but ive seen them fitted to other roccos(different colours)and its doesnt work.

Whats next on the list?

Thank you :D I am really pleased the spoiler turned out okay on the car - there was a bit of work to get it fitted but nothing major, not as bad as what some people experienced. TBH, for just over £100 I am glad I brought it all the way back from China :clap:

Remap is good too, it doesn't feel massively faster from before (I think the bluefin remap was quite aggressive under acceleration anyway), but the boost seems to be steadier and I get more wheel spins when accelerate hard from stop (maybe I just need new tyres i don't know... lol) now thinking about it I should have bought an uprated intercooler beforehand and I could go to stage 2 with a bit more power. Oh well!

I am hoping to replace the grey wrap on the bonnet and front bumper, maybe to carbon fibre to match the rest, not sure yet tho. :shrug: gotta save up for wedding next year... :cry: oh i mean yay!!

It was from ebay - can't find the link anymore tho sorry. You could get the chrome one from hkb5variant on this forum tho! It looks ace!

China. I bought it when I was working out there in April but I am sure it is the same as the ebay ones. It should be around £110 + shipping.

So failed the MOT today due to the tyres [emoji30] not sure how I managed that, gonna check the tracking tomorrow once the new tyres are on I think. On the plus side, the exhaust is MOT friendly! [emoji16]

Forgot how green the car really is now I have finally taken the wrap off the front. Might not bother with the carbon fibre wrap I don't think.
Image

On the other hand, I wrapped some more carbon fibre at the back [emoji28]
Image
Image

I have only used cheap wrap myself and last weekend we decided to give the Avery supreme wrap a try on my mate's Megane RS and wow! How easy was that! And the finish!!!
Image

Image

And gave the interior a quick clean...

How did you take the trim off the surrounding gear stick? It looks great!

Sorry for the late reply.

You can just pull the whole cover off (where the carbon fibre wrap is) by hand from the buttons side. Obviously be careful don't pull too far as there is cable connected to the lights and the gaiter which is clipped on to the chrome trim.

Loving the Viper green, first thing I would have done cosmetically would be to colour code the side trims, where did you get the cup spoiler from it looks awesome!

Not everyone's cup of tea but I quite like it...

The reason is that I got some condensation in the high taillight [emoji17] dried it out and within 2weeks it came back... really hating seeing the condensation so thought I might cover it up with wrap [emoji23] not the most tidy diy work but doesn't look too bad I guess [emoji41]
