Fitted Fronts only to mine a couple of weeks ago, looks ok

I dont think Fitting the rears will do a lot at keeping the arse end clean, and not really serve much purpose
 + i like to see the jet stream behind me in the rain  :grin:

I love watersports too! :laugh:

My GTI (at the dock in Emden at the mo) is going to have mud flaps put on them.. I had a nightmare a few years ago on a silver motor I had (my golf is also silver btw) when I drove over freshly laid tarmac (unfortunately I couldn't avoid it!) and it made a right mess.. took hours getting it off ..

I have managed to blag them FOC mind..  :laugh:
Just for future reference mate, WD40 is superb at getting tar of yer paint! no doubt someone will say it's a bad idea but it works for me, just make sure you give a nice wash afterwards. :smiley:

Look it's not long now it's March next week yipeee!!
Cool car with great spec no wonder you're excited.
Have you been allocated a reg plate yet? 
Btw did you enjoy those pig bladders sorry I mean pork chops? :grin:

The darlings are in the oven being cooked very slowly for extra tenderness and taste and for consumption later.
No Reg plate yet. Just the pork chops on the plate for now! :laugh:

Gizzy:
Dinner was delicious!
Now, to use the rest of the pig! :laugh:
