I really like the Grey Colour :)

Dave J:
Hello all - it’s been a while. I’m still here – adding to a few threads when I can. Still learning about the mk5 –it’s a very different car in all ways compared to my old mk4.
The ED30 is going really well – enjoying it very much, just thought I’d let you all know where I am with it at the moment ;

Recently fitted the following;
Genuine VW Edition 30 plaque, no. 1387
New genuine Edition 30 rear mats
New genuine VW Golf Mk6 LED rear numberplate lights (plus Kufatec adapters, just in case)
New genuine VW open fog light grills, with backing covers
Phillips Blue Vision Ultra HB4 fog lights (closer match to OEM Xenon light colour)
New genuine VW pollen filter (charcoal version) & Autoglym aircon sanitiser

List of parts to be fitted;
New genuine VW Edition 30 handbrake cover
New genuine VW Edition 30 rear badge
New genuine VW Red ‘GTI’ badge
RNS510 (version H)
S3 front brakes (to be refurbished in red powdercoat) plus new OEM discs

Maintenance parts yet to be fitted;
New PCV – version N (06F 129 101N), plus new gasket (06F 103 483E)
New DV – version G (06F 145 710G - although my car must already have one due to it’s age?)
New Cam follower (06D 109 309C)

On balance – this is a ridiculous list when I said I wouldn’t mod this one – still, it is all subtle…!

Great list Dave  :happy2:

Do you have part number/price for the open front grills and the pollen filter?

Cheers Si

Dave J:
Riiight - bit of an update, now I have found a way to upload new pics. Photobucket seems to freeze everytime I try uploading  :fighting:

With the drier weather, I've completed one of the jobs that has bugged me ever since collecting my ED30 - namely the incorrect badging on the rear;



Other problem was the flakey / faded EDITION30 badge;



So, I dug out the badges and forum guide to badge positioning (just to check the alignment);



I started off by marking up the existing badge locations (once I had checked they were in the right positions);



Took me what seemed like forever to remove the residue with AG Intensive tar remover after using dental floss to remove the badges, but got there in the end;



New badges fitted  :smiley:







Hope you guys approve. I love the red GTI badge on the grey - ties nicely with the EDITION30 badge, and this is a proper US 20th Anni badge I bought years ago, so is OEM!!

Cheers,
Dave
