fitting my front strut brace

[gjroe78]

Great i've got this job to look forward to 

[Phil.O]

it's definately a fun 1, not too bad just tricky - think it would have been fairly easy but i went with some ny-locks on the top so that i don't ever have to worry about them going loose which made life a little more............interesting,

also my lower brace nicely sits above my lower cover 

that took a bit of work though.

has anyone got an S3 upper brace on a TDi? just wondering if anyone has already modified the top cover to fit before i start playing

Thanks

hello i have recently purchased a s3 upper strut brace however it has brackets down the bar??? do i jus remove these? or does this mean that the brace didnt really come off a s3? also was just wondering if i tap and die the bolts that fit the strut would that matter?

looks like you need to remove them, as they were'nt on mine, also not sure on the golf if you need to grind some of the end bracket where the bonnet struts might foul on them. always a good thing to trial fit first.
