You've done well there, got yourself a great little workhorse now, done quite a bit.. Not sure on a couple of the stickers, mainly the snap on ones but other than that, looking good.

Thanks mate,

its not going to appeal to everyone, just as long as the gets me from job to job, and looks different from the rest all im after realy,

plenty more to come and not just stickers 

[stow1985]

problem:


solution:


stop the wear getting worse! 

[SoundillusioN]

Ha ha classy!.... you need to two shirts to make the seats match!

[stow1985]

lol i only had the one t shirt, still its better than making the seat worse.

next on the list, is to spray and fit the de-badged grill.

Ok....

time to have a re-cap on what ive done to the car over the 6 months of owning it, and what i plan to do next.

Things Done:

Plugs, Air Filter, Oil change and Oil filter
Cambelt and tensioner changed
All new Daylight Builbs up front, stop lights on the rear.
Drilled air box (did have cold air feed but it was a crappy halfords one and it broke )
New breather pipe (VW Part)
Smoked side repeaters
Sprayed wheels and lower half of the car (Matt Black)
Vinyl wrapped petrol flap (Matt Black)
Advertising on rear screen and bumper
A Few pointless stickers 
T-Shirt seat cover
Fusion amp & Sub

Things i have but not done/fitted: 

Lower bumper Air Vents (arrived Saturday)
De-badged Grill
Sun Strip
Mudflaps
Quad headlight conversion
More Spraying (Matt Black) not the whole car tho
Smoothing in places
De-badge Rear
Remove rear wiper arm
Fit New seat covers on front seats
Polish what green paint works left
More advertising (thinking start again but with yellow)

Only Bad Points:
Brakes are starting to get low
Steering rack is fecked, but im managing to get away with topping it up once a month
and i need to get round to replacing coil(?), dizzy cap, arm and leads, prob new oil, plugs and filter again too

not bad going considering its a daily, really looking forward to cracking on with it,

comments welcome
