    Facelift bumper

    haha don't worry, it can't get alot worse yeah it is, but alot of the "new age" laws still get over looked (I.e. seat must adjust two ways, steering wheel must have airbag if it did from factory) because they're all things the MOT centers/ garages cant actually make money out of themselves my MOT center is a bit friendly

    Facelift bumper

    Remember that if you move from prefacelift to facelift you will have to acquire the facelift headlamp washer motors, brackets and jets and colour coded covers as the fitments on the inside of the bumper are different and these can be expensive. Alex. Urgh god! thanks for enlightening me mate, didn't realize that, what a ball ache, looks like the washer jets will be getting deleted then i cant be bothered with sourcing and more importantly paying for all that, its a big enough pain having to source splash guards aswell!
  3. Little Update; My INGS+1 lip turned up, i can't get over how bendy PU is, to anybody who's never seen or dealt with Polyurethane before it's effectively what i would have called rubber before knowing what it is Anyway turns out its made for a facelift bumper, and my only option if i want to run this lip is to man up and buy one, and i found out i will also need to change arch liners! (thanks chris "thetranquilbass" ) Although it's not all bad as my front end does need a complete respray, it currently has a "starry night effect" thanks to stone chips, and i fully intended on smoothing the badge and taking the plate off the front before the end of winter anyway. It's just another unexpected cost! It has got my thinking about going for a full facelift though, the bonnet bulge has really grown on me. I also bought a 380rs pedal from Darren-B which i fitted at the weekend. Excuse the crappy quality photos. Feels a lot better to drive with and it is really easy to heel and toe! looks ace too. Still got a million and one things to do though, so i'll keep this up to date.

    Facelift bumper

    It's a good shout mate, but I'm not a massive fan of the V2 and the INGS+1 lip I've got will only fit the OEM facelift bumper, thanks for the suggestion though!

    Facelift bumper

    As the title says I'm after a facelift bumper, preferably kuro but I'm not overly worried as it will be getting smoothed and de-bared anyway. The lip I bought is for the face lift bumper and it's cheaper for me to change bumper rather than the lip.

    20mm spacers

    I have some ultralight 20mm spacers but without nuts, I don't want a lot for them pm me if your interested
  7. Welcome and well done on choosing the best colour
  8. Always been a fan of those wheels, they look awesome mate!
  9. My brother had a VW jetta and the rear bench was literally almost black with dirt, he just used the cheapest tesco foam upholstery cleaner and a damp sponge with a bit if water in a bucket to swill the sponge and after a day doing it they came up almost new
  10. Sounds amazing, I expected it to be quieter than that!
  11. We'll this is gutting! I was hoping they'd hold another awesomefest there before it went! Ill be livid if the same thing happens to castle Coombe, as far as I see it, it's like moving next to Heathrow and complaining about the planes!
  12. Sorry to hear, We get race style cyclists in my village and they ride in lines of 3, so I just make sure I position the middle of my car over the cats eyes while overtaking , let my exhaust smash the crap out of them and listen to all the bits of cats eye and Tarmac flick all over them
  13. I'm also interested in the 380rs pedal and the front camber arms price dependant, but I can pay straight away if the price is right and would probably have most of it if I had more money! Glws regardless Mate!
  14. ooh, excuse to pic whore! Top Photo is from Trax, second one is a disused pub in my village Believe it or not my car is swirl mark central! needs a respray.
  15. This thing gets more awesome every time i check back, loving the crazy cage! nice work.
  16. I've been watching YT vids on Megs endurance and tbh it's too glossy for me, i prefer dodo Juices tyromania matte finish, I think I'm going to go for that! Though apparently Megs smells amazing
  17. cars looking awesome mate, I'm amazed at your rear fitment without coilovers! engine bay is looking pretty too.
  18. so they're just standard 06+ ones? INGS+1 lip has been ordered from AVB sports.... cant wait for it to turn up! cost nearly gave me a heart attack though.
  19. To be honest I haven't seem any proper coverage of his car even though its insane! He's part of the low n slow crew and I only know his car through Instagram he uses the name "henrytakespics"
  20. Mine definitely turns a fair few female heads (usualy because of excessive scrapping over the road) and more women have told me they want my car than blokes. I was starting to worry and think it was a girls car
  21. welcome, glad you found a clean one! I spent 12 months searching for mine, it was a right ball ache.
  22. Oh right are they the facelift ones then? i think his are actually custom glas ones though which would be crazy money. Sweet cheers mate, as soon as i have my lip paid for and sorted ill be looking for some, its the girlfriends birthday at the end of this month and my tax is due to sim a bit tight for £ right now. Thanks man, yeah they're phils old wheels, thats how i ended up with static clique, hes a top guy, he needs to get a build thread up on here his is looking insane now! i just read the slammed media shoot of your car, looks dope! the rotas really suit it, you were at trax right? and your lip is really similar to the one i desperately want!
  23. Haha I know they're glass right? I can't even find anywhere that sells them?
  24. Cheers! I'm looking at getting an INGS+1 lip at the moment, I get inspiration from US stuff mainly and this is the car I'm currently fan girling over! But OTT for some people's taste but I love it!
