Watch out Brad!
« on: 24 October 2011, 10:42 »
Saw this at the local meet yesterday. Absolute minter, meticulously done, with a full respray in original Dragon Green, Heated leather that was immaculate with DVD screens in headrests etc. This is the only pic though which was taken from the SWDubs website. Will have a look for a few more. Oh and its a more door too!

seen it before, not keen on the styling, Angel eyes and debadged grill etc.. and also dont like the painted engine. would have rather seen a clean OEM look.. look at the brake resovoir bottle for example.. little things like this is how i roll   :evil:

That fluid reservoir stands out also bonnet catch could be better, and I think the plastic screw clip in the lower screen cover thingy has been chewed up a bit.



looks better than mine though :grin:

and these are the bits you can see in a photo.. if i was up close i could point out a load more things that have been missed or left..  try do that with mine  :evil:  yep i have a stupid OCD thing going on :laugh:

don't like how the normal GTI coolant bottle has been used or the washer bottle, too much stuff on that side of the bay.. he should have at least used the R32 coolant bottle on the other side of the bay

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.
