Thank for all the kind words guys  :drinking:
Iv finally found myself a normal job that pays alright, only 40 hours a week and Monday to Friday so I'll actually have some spare time to finally finish the quad light solution off  :jumping:

RetroRaz:
@mateyguv i followed your guide on the quad lights but tiger sealed them 3 times.  Left a 3 day drying time in between and still holding on fine since may this year.  I might remove them this week to take a look at them and see if they are splitting or not.

Hello mate,

Good to hear yours are still holding - your getting condensation in the lens though ain't you? I like the inner lens to be flush with the boot skin so tighten them right up so that's maybe why mine separate cause of how tight I do the nuts. From my testing the tiger seal always failed eventually so I didn't want that to happen and kept developing my method. Iv come up with a way that will not fail and seals perfectly - I'm fussy like that and want the knowledge that they won't split over time. I found that the problem with tiger is the surface area your asking it to bond is so thin it doesn't really stand a chance in the long run. I hope yours to hold though  :happy2:
Did you photoshop your grills lipstick? What do you think?
@RetroRaz

RetroRaz:
@mateyguv i had a very small amount of condensation once in one of them when it rained really heavily but never since.

Yeah I know what you mean about the thin surface area, got me worried at first an all.
Didnt photoshop it yet,  waiting to see how it looks on the car when i get the bumper sprayed and fitted and then take it from there.

Found some smart genuine MK5 plaid/tartan bits and couldn't help ordering them (sad I know)

Another shameless photo


Iv decided to keep my car undercover as I am using my Skoda as a daily and the golf stays on the drive most the time. Iv found a storage solution 10 mins from me that is secure, insulated and has got power to it. I can come and go when I please and my next bay neighbours are a rather tasty MK1 convertible and an Aston Martin DB9  :drool:
It is strange not seeing her on my drive but she is covered from the elements and out of sight so I'll get used to it
