Hi Rhys

I've been told that your mirror covers have now been included in this first order.  :cool:

If anyone is thinking of going for any parts, then if you can let me know and see if we can have them included in this order as well.

Cheers everyone.

can you get any mk4 parts?
I often wonder why people never expect sarcastic comments from me - they're the only reason I speak...

A development from the supplier-

They inform me that they can make pretty much any part in carbon by using an original part for a mould. I'm going to take up this option to have some Corrado parts made for me and to sell on a couple extra pieces. They state that if 5 pieces of the same part are bought, then there will not be a charge for creating the mould. Also by ordering 5 parts of an item helps with the necessary bulk orders they need.

If you guys have a chat with mates and see if there are bits that 5 of you want and can supply a part for me to send off for the mould, I will investigate the possiblility of it being made and get some kind of costing for you.

What do you think?

Very valid question there mate, I'll get the details so its not worded wrongly for you. I have some samples coming from them, I'll post up some good pics of them to show the quality and finish of their work.
