i have mate, but no look, i can get them for £50 a peice from a vw breaker, just gotta find out vw price first, because i can't see why they would be that expensive

Courier would be cheaper than the cost of a 2 hour driver?

it would have mate, but i went to two places in manchester to get the turbo pipes, and the ones leading to the rads, the guy was clue less, and so was i, but i gave it my best shot, took apart a whole front end, get my pipes etc, was hard! very dirty, and took 4 hours, but the price i paid compared to dealer prices it was well worth it

all the main pipes, expect a/c set me back £40, dealers wanted near enough £600

throttle body - dealers wanted £411, i got for £40

bumper bar was £30 dont know how much dealers wanted
