p.s. VR6 JOE am i right in thinking that once you said that a engine cover from a modern polo will fit ontop of the 1.6 engine? im sure i remember you saying something like that, just wanted to tidy up the bay a bit!

And yea a Polo 6n engine cover fits but you need the brackets too

joe you are the man  :wink:, im gonna source that bit as it looks sick. as for smoothing, took the golf badge off the right hand side of the back just to the right of the boot, taken the VW badge off the boot and getting that welded and getting the wipers taken off! im finally getting some progress made on the car at last, just really want that polo bit, how much do they cost from the dealers? altho i may try and find it from a scrappie!

Yea man that's the one you need, unfortunately mine says 1.4 on it lol! but I'm going to smooth it off soon when I get a chance

You'd just need to find the brackets!

We don't have any left, but I might be able to find some brackets, up to you man!

Sorry to hijack the thread...

VR6-Joe: Do you know of any engine covers that fit onto a 1.4 ABD? :)
