    Welcome! there is this gti for sale on here!? black gti needs lowering but looks v nice?
  3. haha...the fogs in the pic are actually real and were on the car at that moment in time. as for the shoppin - 1-2 minutes...ya get the idea dontya...can safely say its a no on them anyway...thinking why mess...just get some bbs!
  4. thanks silver!thought it would be much more than that! thats not too bad!...maybe i shall invest!...
  5. yeah antracite would be better...struggling to find some decent wheels that are reasonably cheap and a bit different. fogs are from a previous owner...since that pic was taken i ripped them out...dont really know why they were put on anyway!...zenons are good enough!
  6. opinions on the below wheels please oh fellow chaps n chapesses... not sure whether just to go down the bbs route like everyone else though....

    GTi remap

    shes got a piperx ind kit, cat back scorpion ex and a sports 200cell cat. done a few miles though and as Al has said earlier, that was done as the clutch was failing and the figure was at the wheels not clutch power.
  8. I have a 200cell sports cat and have had it remapped...think it was more torquey with the sports cat and since the remap it seems much better alltogether! I have heard bad reports when it comes to decats...personally I would rather have a sports cat but opinions differ!

    GTi remap

    No worries Al, it's made a massive difference to the car so credit where credit due I say! As for the V1's...you're probably right there mate! I'll email ya! Quite happy with the 127bhp to be honest. I was initially hoping for more like 135 but I suppose 81 thousand miles down and still pumping out over 125 is pretty decent! I am more happy with how she pulls now ( ) definately happier through the revs and lower revs at the legal limit of 70!...soo...potentially a little saving in mpg me thinks! As for that clutch...words cannot comprehend that sort of a snappage!

    GTi remap

    Right lads...the old loop has been in to see Al at awesome. He stayed rather late to allow me to drop her off and so many thanks to him for that! Lupo had a little cough which meant the clutch dissintegrated on the RR...so new clutch went in. Only driven her a couple of times since but I can honestly say she is much much happier now! Seem to pull much more smoothly and seems much more eager to rev accross the range! Overall, very happy! Cheers Al and the lads at Awesome! Though I would say....this has done nothing but convince me that she now requires new wheels and some kw v2's!....more money splashing out me thinks!
  12. hmm mine seems pretty wobbly so dont THINK its moulded in...seems like it is slotted in...maybe when the bottom section isnt attached to the upper bumoer bit! Cheers though!
  13. Hello peeps! I have an issue... In my haste to remove the fog lights from within the bottom section of the gti front bumper I smashed my way through the headlamp washer unit thingy (the thing that pops out!). The plastic 'nip' thing that the tube attaches to has snapped so I need the washer unit... any ideas of cheap places? or a part number?!... ALSO...anywhere I can get the grill meshy stuff for the lower front bumper? as this was snipped to accomodate the fog lamps...GR! Any help mooch appreciated...dont fancy going to the stealers for 'an hours labor'!
  14. i think picola has friends for many reasons...but mainly because she is pretty hot!?...possibly?maybe?yes?
