its mainly running through the chassis legs

the wiring for the water level warning light and brake fluid have been deleted to make it neater
and some wires are just re-routed so they aint on show

cant wait to get the other bits on the engine to hide everything else

cars sorted in the bodyshop spoiler has been trimmed to sit more flush still a small gap
might see if i can get some sort of rubber seal

everything has been flat and polished looks 100 times better
rear bumper iron is goosed need another one when i find one
rear bumper wont sit properly because of it

and got some engine bits to put on but they aint quite ready yet

over all i am pleased few little niggles to sort out and parts to replace then it should
run better

mine has a part smoothed bay (done around 18 months ago) and its cracked along one of the chassis legs, nature of the beast i think.

anyways, looking good, loving the hidden wiring  :cool:

had a few hours on it today decided to blind myself with petrol when i pulled a injector out did sting a little
anyway i replaced all 6 went quite well after my eyes were ok again
still not got the beast fired up my boost pack is flat thats charging now overnight should be ok on the weekend fingers crossed it will fire up ok


dug my jetex system out of the garage was going to sell it as its brand new but i have decided to fit it
to the golf seems to fit just got no hangers



fitted the front foglights dont seem to be tight upto the bumper though


had the heat gun on the rear bumper as it was grey then i put shoe polish on it and then black wow on it
still not happy with it though
