Hi mate
Engine cover and black heatsheild look really tidy bud :happy2:, love this car
You've trimmed your cover really good I like how you've kept the bit of oem intake cover near the battery cover hiding some of the intake pipework :congrats:

Picked up a few bits this week.
New wipers, OEM Edition 30/S3/TT short shifter and some 42 Draft bushes, plus picked up a pair of Michelin PS3s for the rear:
To fit the shifter and bushes I removed the intake:
Then remove the shifter end and took out the rubbers to replace with the new solid bushes:
Remove old shifter:
Old vs new, pin is slighty in a different location to reduce shift by about 10-12%:
All fitted:
Shift feels much better and the bushes made a nice improvement.
Took the car to my brother garage to get the tyres fitted:
All for now :happy2:

Cheers Jake, yes pleased able to trim the cover. Heat shield took a while to come from the USA, but worth it :smiley:
