Cheers bud. Yh did think that as my reverse lights are now red  . Il probs end up tinting the cl lights as the rain has made the tint peel a bit round the sides and now look sh!te

Yeah you really need the laquer them to seal them from the elements. I'm just waiting on my red tint showing up then i'll batter into mine. We'll see how they turn out. Steering wheel looks good, need to get myself one of those soon.

Yh didn't lacquer then as It was only a test to see what they looked like then I left them on lol. Cheers bud came up at a very good price so couldn't say no

Well after a LOT of thinking and looking round, I'm gunna keep my mk3, I really can't face selling up, had a couple offers on my wheels but said no as like em too much . So im picking up a 16v donor car on Wednesday and converting the 1.6. I know I've planned many conversions, many in my head lol but this one WILL happen..... Hopefully.

Cheers bud. I sold my mountain bike for £750 so gunna use that to fund the conversion, picking up the doner car on Wednesday night for £350, then use the rest for a decent ss exhaust and other ill bits like finishing off my 4 stud big  brake upgrade on the 1.6.

Been talking about doing an engine conversion for long enuff so it about time i did it lol

You set on doing a 1.8t conversion now?

Sounds like a good plan. At least you got some money to put things together

I'm still waiting for my MOT (Wednesday). After that irony bloody know, engine change will be last in line with paint job.

Yh loved my bike but only used it once since building at the star torture yer so thort f**k it!

Yh mine wants a respray but I found covering it with a thin layer of dirt hides the fact.

Think yours will be a beast with a 1.8t lump init and dare I say worth a fair bit too

Always best to sell things you don't use, let's you buy things you still don't need lol.

I reckon if I maintain it's Anniversaryness and get a 1.8T engine in there it'll be a good one, that's for sure.
