I'm Albert and as of March 1st 2012 I was the owner of my 1.9 GT TDi 


Here's a few pictures from the advert;





It came with a few months tax and a full 12 months MOT 

First thing I had to do (should be made compulsory  ) Forum Stickers




next I decided to do the sharan badge mod, but did it with a passat badge (slight concave)



after

Next up was the DIY door triggers for that brushed aliminium/ R32 look

Before;


After;


Then brushed ali trim for the radio cage (not sure how long this will stay or if I like it  )


and the last mod i've done was to paint the engine bay with leftover paint from the sharan badge 

before;


first coat;


finished;



As you'll notice all of the mod's so far have either been EXTREMELY cheap or free. The joys of being a student 

so much more to come . . . I promise

Just sourced myself some more £££ so there's a bit of a large project in the pipe line 

[ALBEEEEY]

deal fell through  on the plus side it means I have £££'s to spend on other stuff 

[ALBEEEEY]

hmmm been a while 

a large chunk of the money I'd saved from my £30 a week job went on this




with enough change for this




and also decided to clean up the back

before



after



no hating on my rubber grommet 

ghost marks underneath where the badges where and very dirty  both will be sorted soon

[ALBEEEEY]

been wanting to do this for a while now, only today did I muster up the conkers too attempt it






the bottom grills have also been painted gloss black as well, I just don't have a during shot 

[ALBEEEEY]

finally fitted my coilovers today


before






after




alternator decided to break though so drove home with no electrics/power steering.

also didnt go faster than 30mph because of the awful grinding of the driveshaft on the ARB. Should be fitting TT ARB today
