Loving the doorcards. I've seen some fancy ones on ebay but like you don't want to pay loads for what really is just a sheet of material.

So I can pinch your budgeteer idea, where did you get the material from?

One of the images on there is a door card from a mk5 which is why I went for it. Its a chap in the production gti series so just copied his idea essentially.

Decided to tidy up those messy scratched up bonnet pins and replace with locking aerocatches. Not that hard to install and bonnets aren't that expensive if you really make a mess of it but it is time consuming on the oem double skin with a rotary tool, I didn't fancy putting my angle grinding skills to use for cutting a precise shape personally!



Got around to mounting the ESP button and the fuel pump cut off. Not wired up the fuel pump yet... not really looked into how I'm going to do it yet, I imagine if possible may be best to wire up to the hpfp rather then the low pressure fuel pump so the engine cuts out immediately rather than at low pressure pump where I imagine it will work like when you pull the fuse and takes a 20 or something seconds for the engine to eventually cut out.


Clarkj93:
Good bye seats!



Still got the arm rest and door cards which I imagine will sell very very slowly as well as random bits of plastic trim... not really anywhere to store them so if anyone here wants stuff let me know and il probably give it away free or for some beer money. Rather not post though - sorry I'm just lazy  :grin:

Super pro rear bushes arrived from black Friday sale. Looking forward to driving it with a bucket seat, stripped inside and some replacement bushings, I imagine it will feel totally different.
