Joshy's Mk5 Golf Gti build thread

<< < (6/18) > >>

Joshy:
Well i bought a badgeless grill on ebay as an impulse buy.
So i went from this:



to this:





I need to get that notch in the bonnet sorted now! I assume that when my car is actually clean, these wont be an exact match, but we shall see! I've not got my plate in the window, but i have no idea how to position it and how to secure it!

Im concerned about the gap between the bottom of the two grills though, im pretty sure they should be flush!?



Im not sure if i actually like this grill! Might look better when i've cleaned the car. Will leave it for a bit, if i dont like it, i'll get a smooth one with the badge instead.

Joshy:
Oops. Started this earlier. Got to want for the tanks to arrive so some more measurements can be taken :wink:



Also took some photos of the grille. Decided i don't like it, so that will be up for sale asap, Im going to go back to my old grille, not sure if i should try to fill the holes up myself. Hmm.

Did you get anything sorted with the missing part on intake mate?

No mate, i've not yet. I'd actually forgot about it until i opened the bonnet the other day! Thats another thing on my urgent "to do list" :happy2:

m1whitey:
i picked up the part again the other day from vw. The oem intake is a bag of sh*t. worst design ever haha. the top cover wont even clip in this time. i advise tying it down if you get one cus im on my 3rd now lol… IF i ever manage to get it on!
