Agree, looks great, although I did like your orginal wheels with the red rim a lot.  :cool:

Thanks for the above comments all ways nice when someone likes your car  :wink:
Havent really done much in the last few weeks as im waiting on parts to arrive however I have done a few things.
Managed to find a mint set of Hella quads as my old ones were replicas and some of the fixing brackets were broken.The new ones are genuine Hellas with no damage and all there fixing brackets  :smiley:
I also got some lower bumper vents of bored_welsh_lad which look cool and a very cheap simple mod.
Im waiting on my new mirrors to arrive which are standard mk3 CL mirrors that are flat black not sure yet how they will look on mine but as they only cost £16 posted ill give them a try  :wink:
Hopefully got hold of some Hella all Black rear lights which im told are pretty rare first time ive seen a set tbh but im sure someones already got some on here  :grin: again just sorting a price and hopefully have them by next week.I went to Halfords last week and bought myself a maguires clay kit with detailer and polish cost me £50 so ill be having a day soon to do that never used the clay bars before so should be fun.
Got the car booked in on monday for its MOT fingers crossed shouldnt be to much but you never know  :grin: either way if theres any issues ill have it done but shouldnt be to many as ive done alot to the car since owning it once thats all done see if the loves still there ill keep it if its not might be time to move on have to see thanks again for looking  :wink:





Piccy of  my dads `130bhp tdi which was a standard car when he bought it weve done a few things to it since then and its looking really good now well my dads please anyhow :smiley:



 Textured mirrors came today fitted the covers only and think they look better than the red ones as they go well with the roof and other black bits.Also bought some new BBS centre caps which are plain gloss black with silver writing.Just waiting on my Hella all blacks now  :smiley:
