Thanks  MrBounce :afro:

Washed her today, and did this ...



Think I prefer it with this look, suits the alloys better.

With regards to the Remap, was gonna get Revo done today, but the place wouldnt do stage 1 remap and sort out the engine light (fault code is excessive flow through cat, caused by the sports cat) they kept telling me I had to go stage 2 ... so she is now booked into R-Tech at 12pm Thursday  :wink:

Unfortunately the ABS and ASR lights have come on, done some research and looks like the f**kING thing needs a new MAF  :angry:

Mate, get some compressed air and blow it ( :lipsrsealed: lol) into the MAF. Might just be a dirty sensor, or a quick temporary fix! My car started juddering under load, changed the air filer and done that to the MAF and it sorted it right out :afro:

Good news on the Remap! Really want to get my car done but need to wait till I can afford a new clutch just incase first :rolleyes:

Wheels look great, grille looks cool but hate that MK4 bonnet issue you get with debadgedness.  such a pain.. I almost think VW did it on purpose so that people would keep the badge on.
