Has the boot had a respray in the past? The paint looks very poor the way it has just peeled away from the primer like that :undecided:
-
not 100% sure on the boot being sprayed, il text the old owner tomorow.. everything happens to me :rolleyes:
-
if i were you id just get a replacement boot than trying to fix it, at least then you know its all good and gonna get no more nasty surprises. has the rear wiper been leaking?
shame its done that cos your car looks lush! and its an agu so the forge splitter will be fine
-
yeah i will have a look around, but for now im thinking sticker.. because it does make me :angry: every time i look at it.
oh cool :) just need to find a anni front and rear pref genuine :)
just did the wires for the amp :) wasnt as bad as i thourght, just getting the live to the engine bay was the hardest bit :)
-
found a big bad boost leak today, my friend from g werks had a look, so getting a new one tomorow, and also thermostat... so should be healty...
he wants me to have a revo map aswell... :rolleyes: :lipsrsealed: toby says yes... tobys wallet is saying no... :(
il stick a temp map on tomorow and that will make my mind up :D
-
Car looks good!
How did you loose the paint at the rear?.... Looks like a respray.

Toby
-
Gave it a mega clean today :cool: wash, polish and seal! :D
and put my sticker on the back
and fitted my bora vents that i got for £12 from the breakers!! bargain... however there not illuminated! and i left all the wires and led's there... how far do you need to take the wireing back out of the bora and in to the golf?
(http://i638.photobucket.com/albums/uu109/tobe1990/DSCF2015.jpg)(http://i638.photobucket.com/albums/uu109/tobe1990/DSCF2014.jpg)
also could this be a problem also?

(http://i638.photobucket.com/albums/uu109/tobe1990/DSCF2009.jpg)

-
:cool: looks good mate.
Car looks very clean and tidy too :afro:
-
looks good mate, good idea with the sticker :smiley:
is your clutch starting to slip then?
-
not slip, its just right at the top? i stalled it twice yesterday getting up my drive in reverce!! haha! im used to driving a van i guess :undecided:
but i will upgrade it to probaly vr6 with g60 flywheel, all i got to pay for is the vr6 clutch, and then get a mate to fit it for £150 :smug:
-
right you SOoooooooooooo need to get ya mate to sort ya a BIgger version of that sticker :undecided: :huh:
so the Roof and window pillars go round the boot lock handle. :smug:
but the stop gap one works as a stop gap :smiley:
-
Very nice Tobe, I have always had an urge to buy a MK4 1.8T in red, although I'd need a 3 door as I don't like MK4s in 5 door. Still, bet you're really pleased. :)
-
You need to make up a wiring loom for the bora vents

this looks fine for now.. the spray job will be in due course...
remap - then clutch,
then overtime refurb alloy's
buy r32 front and 4mo/anni rear to get it all sprayed at the same time :)
-
Smoothed my air box today and washed it... really wanting a remap now... but im £1400 in debt.. so thats got to wait :sick:
-
the cover that you have missing on your bulkhead is cover for the pollen filter, you will need to get it as soon as you can, theres a water channel down there and water can get to places you really dont want it
and why has the rubber seal been cut? whats that wiring for? id look into that if i were you mate.
good idea with the sticker, doesnt look out of place either
-
yeah i really do need to get it sorted, try and find one from the breakers
Anyway... today i got REVO state 1 remap.. but didnt get to take it out cause i broked the ignition amplifer! :angry: :angry: :angry: so guna pop in to breakers tomorow and try and find one! if not then no rr day for me saterday :undecided: :sick:
got some new wheels to go on either tomorow , sat, or sunday :) needs a dam good clean inside and out!! looking forward to this remap!
tax is due end of feb.. so no more mod's as im still in debt :sick:
toby

when your at scrappy make sure you got the pollen filter retainer too, looks like yours is missing.
how much you pay for your remap?
