Very nice mate.. Got any plans for it..?

Cheers lads. Got loads of plans for it gonna get bonnet,front bumper and front wings sprayed as it looks like its done motorway miles and the stone chips will annoy me. Then wanna remove slam panel rub it down and respray as its gpt some corrosion marks on it and refit with new bolts. Then service at AMD at 64,000 . Wanna get the wheels refurbed and sprayed gun metal grey only one has a curb mark so not too bad.
Im repainting the brakes on Sunday and have new Brembo stickers to go on.
Then ill be doing
Miltek or Blueflame exhaust
SFS Tip
Forge boost and coolant hoses
Filter not decided on yet
Need to get a Forge 008
Then remap and front mount at some poimt.
Going to be an ongoing project :cool:

very nice car buddy! My mate has one of them in black with gun menal grey alloys but his also got the gold and silver sparkle in them and they look lovely. I also drove it VERY comfy. I love that shape, you just cant fault it.

Cheers mate it is mega comfy and love the seats and its quick standard so looking forward to more power and noise. I got a quote for the wheels £312 for the set so not to bad. :cool:
Alan that pic was taken in the rear car park the front one has no access now as John Roan school is taking it over. Still got plenty of room for cleaning. Looking at that pic of my old Golf I dont know what I was thinking putting them wheels on lol. :shocked:
-
I might need to have a word with you later Ben about the wheels as I want (read want and cant afford) to do mine in gunmetal.
-
very nice car mate i been wanting one of them for ages but funds wont allow :cry: :cool:

tried that, but wasn't enough. if i'm honest, i can't be bothered to take the calipers off either. don't mind about the inner side of the caliper :grin:
-
I'll be putting step by step pics up on cupra.net once completed mate. I brought brake caliper paint from halfords so will see how they come out. The more time you spend on preperation the better the results that's what i found last time i done some.

Lovely looking motor you have there....was wondering what colour is was until I saw the 3rd pic :grin:
Looking into getting a snow foam attachment too for my karcher, looks like it will be well worth it!
-
Very nice motor, I'm hoping to get one of these next....which could be some time at this rate. :undecided:
