Thanks buddy! Hope the car is back in action!

nah they still have it and it won't be back anytime soon from what I can see as these claims companies thrive on taking the wizz and keeping the car in storage for as long as possible and how they make part of their money.

Hopefully it won't be much longer and then you'll really enjoy it when you get it back!

I seriously can't wait even though I wanted to sell it off many times over now it's a keeper :signLOL:

Great thread LukeGti
I'm a new member from Dublin. Love some of the mods you've done. May do the same to my Reflex silver mk5

Hi, are these number plate lights the ones you used? youtube search - 2x OEM VW GOLF PASSAT SCIROCCO SEAT LED license plate lights 1K8943021 C - asking because it does not mention golf mk5 and says might need vcds but they seem the right ones!
secondly - I'm going to paint calipers - what brand paint spray and clear coat id you use? and did you paint the hat on disks?
did you bother getting a brake refurb kit or just paint?

Nope, these are the ones I used - http://www.ebay.ie/itm/2-PCS-24-LED-White-License-Number-Plate-Light-Canbus-For-VW-Passat-Golf-GTI-MK5-/291540195553
I used VHT red spray paint for the caliper and VHT black spray paint for the retaining springs. Page 1 of my guide has the full step by step breakdown of the process. I then recently refurbed them again!
