Quick Snap


A3 140 TDI by jenkinsjoe00, on Flickr

Look at the colour the dirty derv has made the sky!  :grin:

I was gonna say, those first photos were rubbish by your standards, glad to see you had time for a "quick snap", which is still better than many of us manage.

Joe, do you have a slight stone chip on the bonnet? Right next to where the top of the grill starts?

Great photo by the way, although seriously needs the lowering stick to be bashed on it.  :wink:

Its a right barsteward mate! My mate did mine and he's been on the car wrapping course and stuff and said it was tricky!

Did you take the silver bits away from the black? I thought getting the damn thing off the car and apart was enough of a ball ache lol

the lower grill wasn't too bad but jesus christ the top one was near impossible! took my time and several attempts and managed to figure out what to push where lol

there are a few tiny creases and well ill see how long it lasts  :grin:

just trying to find this bloody boost leak now! one of the pipes, the one on the passenger side had a little play in it which im assuming is the cause for the pressure leaking out? think im going to have to call the garage i bought it from and get them to sort it! make the most of the warranty but will be with out a car . . . . .again
