I was thinking about spraying it first but with this stuff being so cheap now and so easy to fit it was a no brainer. It won't flake off either  :wink:

It should last a lot longer than spraying it

Have you done a boost leak check after refitting those pipes? How do you think that vinyl will stand up to the heat?

Great mk4...

Great work with the catch can, something I must do to my mk3.

The vinyl should be fine with the heat, it's designed for covering cars etc, we'll see I spose  :smiley:

Leak test is on my to do list, I need to borrow the small compressor from work again, might see if I can do it this weekend :afro:

and the grilles back in, I don't think you'd know there was an FMIC there unless you went looking for it :cool:





My pillar pod is on route, will cover that with the spare material I've got and order my oil temp gauge when I've got some spare cash  :wink:

That looks good. Don't like it when you can see pipes sticking out of the grills. Pillar pods in the other hand.  :sick: :max power: not in golf IMO.

Not sue on the pillar pods either....

However, the stealth front mount jobbie looks great, well, if I could see it.  :grin:

cheers mate, best bit is it only cost £4 delivered for the vinyl and about 20 mins of my time :afro:

Cheap mods / fixes are always the best ones.

Depends how you look at it... That's all some people do, cover their car in cheap mods and usually the results are appalling.  :grin:
