Dom's Mk4 Story So Far - it's all over!

[dom]

Ok then, spent this afternoon on the mk4!

First off was fitting the anni valance, got the car jacked up with a trolley jack on one side and the widow maker on the other but with old wheels under both sills and the rear beam. Fecking good job I had the wheels there as the widow maker gave way causing the car to shift towards the garage wall (as the trolley jack rolled with the car). Luckily the car landed on the old wheels and no damage was done but flipping heck did I sh!t myself seeing the car shifting towards the wall/floor

Anyway, gave a mate a call who arrived with an extra couple of trolley jacks and we got the car back up and supported without any widow makers and I continued! Got the anni valance fitted pretty easily, I also painted the rear calipers whilst I had the wheels off:







I then looked at the back of the car and decided to remove the rear wiper:







I'm hoping that the pipercross filter will be here tomorrow so I can tackle the airbox. I also need to change the aerial for a shorter one! I rang VW to get a price for a Sharan rear badge.....just over £20! For a little badge!!!

Nice work dom. Looks better without wiper. I had a window maker moment on the old car today. Back end went straight to the floor. Never use 2 widow makers on one car.

Did a quick photoshop of the golf & gti badges removed. I'm not too sure tbh:

Wow! I didnt know the valance made such a difference! That has just been shifted up a couple of notches on my 'to do' list!!

Looks really good Dom. I always like red calipers too!

Get the VW badge removed too! Then it will look better

Im going to have to disagree there. I dont like debadging.

Yup, VW badge is definitely staying but will be replaced for a smaller Sharan version

I would leave the badges on, no rear wiper and the valance looks really good.
