I will add that i was referring to the wheel spacers, I think the wheel sit quite nicely inside the arches now.

looks good mate! spacers are just right too! i wasnt sure which thickness to go for but after seeing yours my mind is made up!
Cheers bud the wheels are 7.5 with et37 if that helps any.

Already had to do a bit of modding on the rear arches or the spacers all good though. :smiley:

Done a few things at the weekend, new breather for the engine and a new heater matrix. Took about 6 hours all in cleaned alot as well when the dash was out, and its all nice and tight, no squeeks or rattles :smiley:

Modified a mk4 steering wheel to fit







Finished



Still needs a bit clean its not the best condition on the rim but it was cheap. Its a big improvement on the mk3 one feels a lot better to hold.

some new pics with the arches back on







My old mans R32 DSG in the background :smiley:

Paint is up next and im undecided what to do.

Keep it the same colour (twilight violet)

Or candy white with matt black roof and arch trims :undecided:

Keep it twilight violet. It's one of the nicest factory mk3 colours.
Looks awesome with the arches back on :afro:
Not low enough mk5

cheers guys :afro:

Jimp i really like the colour too but i think white would be nicer, with either matt black or dark grey roof and arches etc.

only thing putting me off a colour change is the amount of work involved like engine bay etc. :undecided:
