1st Mod fitted today! :0) CF All the way!
« on: 05 April 2008, 21:00 »
Not as tricky as I thought, but well pleased with the look of it  :cool: Although not sure I can feel/hear any difference at the moment?  :huh:

Has anyone else noticed much of a difference after fitting?


Also thought I'd clean the car while it was dry  :cool: then it rained  :angry:


I'd now like to get the centre section of the engine cover in CF. Am I right in saying I may have seen it on RedRobins car??

Performance gains are only slight and best on a remapped car.

I was expecting trouble after I read a few guys had to change screw length's etc, but it went straight on!  :smiley:

The engine cover was even helpful too!  :laugh: The hardest thing was upgrading the orange side light bulbs! That was until I sussed they pulled out not screwed  :grin: Why do VW have to make the plastic edges in the engine bay so damn sharp!!

I got it from Fleabay America. Came with a K&N Filter, and all for £120  :laugh:

How I can satisfy my new found lust for Carbon Fiber  :laugh:

I've seen a few of the sites with CF stuff for the MK5, but not that particular piece of cf smut  :grin:

Greenhouse,

the carbon stuff is OSIR, you can get it from the TT shop, both links shown below.

On one of my old posts ive uploaded the price list for OSIR as bought through the TT shop, they are the sole uk distributers of this stuff, think you may be able to search posts by me and get the list.
