Hello people! Have finally got round to putting some pics up! To be fair though I have been having a few problems with being able to post.

Anywho here are some pics of my baby going through stages 1, 2, 3 and 4 as i have named them. Bare with me during this peeps as i am but a novice as well have having been fu**ed about by all the cowboys/conmen that we have up here that claim to be coachworks. What a load of nuts. So if anyone knows anywhere that is actually good at what they do let me know. Preferably in Scotland but im not bothered about having to travel. Other than that any tips/comments/help/general banter is welcome and muchly appreciated.

Hope you enjoy the pics, thanks for taking the time to look at them! I've had a look at some of the other posts and alot of them go into lots of detail and are really good pics, just to warn you now, mine arn't!!

Ok, here we are at stage 1, the only thing i had changed was the wheels to Audi replicas, obv in this photo you can see that!

But you can in this pic!


Right onto stage 2, in other words lowered and a s**tty air filter. I can't really see the differance, it's meant to be lowered 30mm but it was done by a company called sh!tty Citi coachworks who are a bunch of cowboys. Thanks for all your help guys!


Feeling the worst of the scottish weather!


Which leads us to stage 3, basically just having the windows tinted. With thanks again to sh!tty Citi coachworks and Performance Auto Trix for another overpriced botched job. It doesnt look to bad from a distance but i can see all the wee bits that havn't been done right.



Right, this brings us to stage 4, having the new exhaust fitted. Finally a job really well done. With genuine thanks to the lovelly guys at c&c exhaust, the lovelly fellas even gave me a lift to the shopping centre so i could spend the day shopping while it was getting done. AND when it was finished they came and picked me up again!





Half a tank of petrol for 80 mile round trip (with a little de-tour added on when i got lost) - £25
Spending the day in a shopping centre whilst waiting - £200
Actual final price of the cat-back system - £528.75
The feeling i get when i start it up and hear her roar - F**king Priceless.

Right so thats it for now. Next up,
it should be going in this week to get all those nasty black plastics re-sprayed and getting the bumper filled.
Poss re-map
Poss new cat
coilovers
Better air filter
Poss new bumpers/side skirts but i havn't seen any that i like so far.
Anti roll bars

Well keep in touch you beautiful people. I like the banter!  :kiss:

Yeah, its going in this week to be filled and all the black plastics colour coded, i agree, it looks pants!

Hmmm in terms of the tints, i did do some research on this with the bobbies etc and it was given the all clear as long as it was 30% tints not limo. Do we, by any chance, have a different law up here?

I had tints on my old 05 Gti as in my signiture below, and i was told under no curcumstances could you used tinted glass on the front before the B pillar.The only tint i could get away without breaking the law was a clear UV tint, which reflects the suns rays, gives the glass a slight mirror'd look . and keeps the rozzers away!!. Unless in bonny scotland the laws different, you wouldnt get away with it down here if you were pulled over.

Hmmmmmmmmmm. I know there are certain laws that are different here but you would think that anything really to do with cars would be accross the country....

However i must keep this in mind for the times i take a wee jaunt down the way! I havn't been pulled yet and have driven past plenty of cop cars, maybe they are just waiting till i do something really wrong and then hit me with a double whammy!
