any tips to get good strippage ?? :signLOL:
Title: Re: few of my white un
Post by: v2brett on January 06, 2009, 10:21:53 pm: cheers guys :happy2: and :signLOL: at the strippage, best way is to use a wet vac with a small end on and lay the mat off up and down, but you can cheat and slightly wet a clean mat and just go up and down it with something square/blunt about 4"s wide
Title: Re: few of my white un
Post by: E30m3 on January 10, 2009, 07:57:43 pm: Great looking car , in the best colour too ! 8)

Post by: matsu on June 30, 2009, 11:50:50 am: hi mate
can you explain "even stevens" to me?
i got left hand drive lights at rear being finally fitted thurs and will need to keep them looking legal..... or i,ll just swap them back the day the mot is due :innocent:
matsu
Title: Re: few of my white un
Post by: v2brett on June 30, 2009, 12:02:18 pm: yeah no probs, just replace the fog lense on your new light with the reverse lense from your old lights and then fit a chrome red bulb in place of the standard fog bulb.
its pretty easy just unscrew the 3 screws that hold the chrome piece to the back of the light then remove and then you`ll see the lense held in by 3 plastic tabs that just need gently squeezing in with something like a screw driver and out pops the lense.

It makes the back of the car look more even and costs nothing but a bulb as long as you have your old lights :happy2:

edit; it can be a bit hard finding decent chrome bulbs that shine bright enough though, i got 2 different ones and luckily 1 works great
Title: Re: few of my white un
Post by: Cooper on June 30, 2009, 12:09:43 pm: Where did you get the chrome red bulb from?
Title: Re: few of my white un
Post by: v2brett on June 30, 2009, 01:36:55 pm: these where the best i got from ebay, just search for: P21W-BA15s-382-SILVER-CHROME-RED .not sure how a normal red bulb will show though they might be ok
Title: Re: few of my white un
Post by: matsu on June 30, 2009, 01:42:22 pm: thats very helpful mate cheers. i,m worried with the dectane ones as i cant see how to open it up without breaking it. it looks like its jst a sealed/glued unit, but i,ll gewt the spark to see what he can do.

Ever so tidy Brett :happy2: Wrapped grill and rear diffuser are particular highlights for me.

I always see your rear bumper in your sig and it always reminds me I should have mine done by now :laugh: When finances allow...
That modified highline is the dogs too, not seen that before :happy2:

cheers pete the rear diffuser is a great mod and how the Gti`s should have been from the factory imo. the grills real carbon though fella :happy2:

get your diffuser painted you`ll wonder why you didnt do it sooner

Too reet'.
Proper carbon? My mistake - Cool! I was just going to ask you how much wrap you needed for it... :laugh:

I know, I agree it should have been an OEM part on the GTI's. The S-line A3's have it and its a great executive/sporty look combined. I don't like black bits where they can be avoided for small cost.

Thought about getting your skirts done mate? :smiley:

Post by: v2brett on July 25, 2010, 02:23:46 pm: yeah i have thought about it mate but from certain angles i like the look of the black skirts on white. so im undecided at the moment.
As for the grill id def go down the vinyl route as its a lot cheaper and should nt be too hard to do as its great stuff to work with.

Post by: No-fear on August 02, 2010, 10:22:31 am: I like the rear bumper, this should have been as it left the factory.

The rear fog light is a touch of class, balances the look of the lights.

Got to get my rear bumper sorted soon.

Indeed. It's cheaper, but, the thought of doing it neatly worries me :scared:
I've seen Jays (JPC) in person and it looks larvely but requires some skill to fit.

Post by: v2brett on August 02, 2010, 11:13:09 pm: for the price of the vinyl mate id have a crack at it, if it doesnt come out how you want you can just pull it back off.
ive done a few bits, And if you do crease it or need to stretch/bend the stuff just apply some heat with a hair dryer and start again :happy2:
