Dubvrs 2008 GTI restoration and upgrade

<< < (5/42) > >>

dubvrs:
Had a good day on the golf.

Replaced my cam follower which looked like it was the factory one as quite worn.


Got my H&R springs fitted along with new drop links. Rides like oem just a little harder. Spent the rest of the day cleaning. Clay bar and removed a lot of scratch's. Quick seal and polish and came up very well.


Got a set of Highline clocks coming so just need to sort out getting them coded in.

Whilst lowering 3 of the tyres have damage to the walls on the inside. Got a set of Toyo T1R's in the garage so going to throw them on for the time being.

dubvrs:
Interior all cleaned now and leather treated.

Found a crack in my passenger side rear quarter trim. Not to bad but the white line really showed up against the grey of the trim.


Got out my heat gun and gently warmed it up and the White has gone plus managed to melt the two parts back together. Looks a lot better and hardly notice it now.


Ordered some more bits.

Highline steering wheel control module.
Steering wheel with multi function.
Cruise control stalk.
Cherry hazard switch.
Carbon B pillar trims as my black ones need replacing.

Rippers:
Looks good.

Still waiting for my cherry hazard switch to arrive, ordered it a month ago  :sick: :doh:

dubvrs:
Hopefully mine will not take that long.

Couple of quick jobs done tonight.

Smoked mirror indicators and carbon covers fitted.


Polo stubby antenna fitted.


New genuine gear gaitor fitted.

dubvrs:
After failing to get my spare key to code to the car I ordered second hand key off eBay.

Coded in first go so changed over the key and transponder and all working. Just need a new badge as had to remove it to get to the screw that holds the top piece together.

Some items got delivered so cleaned them up ready for a retrofit weekend. Just waiting for my highline clocks and MFSW airbag loom.


Hot my Toyo's fitted today and car is a lot quieter than it was just need to get it tracked now.
