Time for a thread update!

Had lower door lights fitted by scott golfman earlier in the summer, no pics I’m afraid but worth it to avoid the all to often foot in puddle/slush/snow incidents from last winter.

Couple of pictures from over the summer

The other half getting in the way




Fitted a pair of Eibach Sportline springs to take the rear down a touch more, now happier with the height. The front could go down a bit more but front bumper+kerbs+gf/parents (ok and me) mean its taken a few scrapes even at this height.


Couple of pics of a West Coast blast, starting at our boat in Fort William


Through Glen Coe




To rolling road day at Extreme motorsport in Whitburn (near Edinburgh) with golfman and dodds-gttdi





Finally fixed my passenger seat which wasn’t sliding forward…its been like that for past 3years lol making it a pain in the ass for folks getting in&out of back seats. Have put up a guide here to help anyone who has the same problem.

Next up will be a winter update

w80ody:
Winter beckons….

I sold my previous winter setup of Audi Avus 17s with Dunlop Wintersport 3D’s to golfman earlier this year, now fitted to his car . I quickly regretted this when I realised how much more demand there was for winter treads this year! Finally picked up a set of Nokian’s localish in Glasgow and put them on a set of 17” Gti monzas that dodds-gttdi had picked up for me.



Put them on last week of October which may seem early but I headed off the following week to work for 6weeks in Iraq so by the time I return mid December I expect sub zero temperatures and some snow.



Looking into plasti dipping them as I think the silver a little boring or spraying them anthracite to hide the winter filth something like (cheers to Jungle_Faced_Jake for the inspiration)

Picked up 2 damaged R32 grilles; will get one wrapped and fitted when im back home to beef up the front end of the car which I’ve always felt is missing something.

Work in progress!



Also fed up having a frozen ass and frozen washer jets so must get kufatec heated seat loom fitted and a loom from EddieNL for the heated washers

S800BRN:
Looking tidy. Wrapped grille and darker wheels would look nice! :happy2:

If I may, there is one thing (only one  :innocent:) that is not for my taste: the front mud flaps. I am not a big fan of those but it's you taste that matters.
Drive safe and keep up the good work!

I was gonna say the same mate :sick:

They just don't work with all the colour coding!

Apart from the flaps the car is gorgeous though mate. Looks like you have spent some time on it and it definitely paid off  :notworthy:

There are a handful of really great soot chuckers, and yours is def one of em!
