Fly Eye Kit FTW!! :cool:

Did you find it a pain in the ass trying to curve it?

Yes it was a f**king nightmare! :grin:
Im good with mechanicals,electrics and bodywork but if it comes to fabric and sticky stuff im just a useless tosser. :grin:
The missus hairdryer came in handy though. :cool:

Sooo had a bit of tinker today as i got these in the post. :evil:


So i set about fitting them.Heres how the old ones looked  :sick:



Heres the chromed ones fitted.(notice how i didnt get my little gay engine in shot) :grin:



I also did a few other niggly jobs but nothing exciting.I just wanted to get loose ends tied up so i can crack on with the engine this week without worrying i should be doing something else on the car itself.

Also had a bit of a Golf Love day on my drive on saturday where i sorted a few peoples cars out and then we all went for a bit of a drive and took a few pics :)







By the end of the week there will be updates of the engine variety :)

I'm disappointed to see the state of that bay! Bring on the new lump to bring it up to scratch like everywhere else on Potter!  :wink:
