well after a hectic week, fitting bits to the golf around my night shifts, im finally seeing some real progress. first up was the tints, done by RCS based in Denbigh. 50% fronts, 35% rears. then i fitted the FK AK coilovers, few minor issues here and there (i should have bought a 21mm deep socket and 7mm allen key before starting!). there was minor catching on the front whilst i had 5mm spacers on, so the day after whilst trying to level up the stance, i put the 10mm spacers on all round. no catching now! i wanted the supersport poly top mounts from venom, but after a quick phone call they said they were out of stock, and also was a waiting list for them
so settled for the audi tt/r32 topmounts (febi-bilstein made i think!). only done 30 or so miles since fitting so cant really comment on them but no clonks or bangs up to now! all thats left to do for this month is fit new rear wishbone bushes, then go and get the wheels aligned. also paint and fit a sharan rear badge, going back to chrome to break up the all black rear end.
going to level the stance up in a week or so when all is settled. somehow managed to lose a centre cap somewhere along the line, 3 weeks until getting the BBS LM's though so not too bothered!
