Thanks for posting the pics Wes, I've recently got one of those spoilers for my Lupo TDI, mine comes with bolts as well as bonding stuff but I'm a bit reluctant to drill my tailgate, but also don't trust just the glue, have visions of it flying off. I suppose done properly drilling would be ok. Gonna get it colour coded together with my front & rear valance's.

Yep, nice.

Must admit, Clayton i prefer the OZs to the Team Dynamics, with the added bonus albeit slight of being lighter and easier to clean. Superb Lupo as always by the way.
-
Like that a lot !!!

Sausage, you are spot on, only just noticed, the camber is way out, think that was a bit of a boo boo on the garages part, I'll be having words. As for the 17s sausage, they honestly drive fine, no probs at all, and its lowered on coilovers, and it looks great.

I'VE had two new front wheel bearings and front (rear) wishbone bushes fitted to my Lupo TDI. The car now feels different to drive, the steering actually felt a bit vague, as though the tyres were well down (they weren't) more road noise and i can feel more road imperfections. Now i do have 17s with 185/35/17s on, but prior to this work done, every thing was fine, no probs at all. The rubbers were actually split, and the bearing rumbling, would new rubbers make the car feel that different?

I'D have to say no.

I did my seat backs with the square carpet tiles you can get, they are 50cmx50cm the seat back is 50cm wide x 51cm high so just have the 1cm space at the bottom, you can't tell when there on, no cutting needed just straight on, don't use carpet glue they came off in the hot weather, so i used gorilla glue , they wont come off, tiles only 3 quid each , i got anthracite tiles which are a excellent match for the boot carpet.

Now i know this is probably a waste of time without pics ( I've tried just cant seem to post pics) but here goes anyway, 4 x 17" x 7" Fox FX1 , 5 spoke alloys ET38 with Nankang 185/35/17 , NS2 tyres alloys are sprayed white and in good nick, tyres are ok, can put straight on car, there is one centre cap missing, these go straight on a Lupo , no probs at all, and mines lowered. Will also fit 4 stud Polos and Golfs and incidentally 4 stud Fords. Buyer must collect, I'm in St Helens.

If anyone is interested, there's a feature in May's edition ( out now. ) of Modern Classics about the Lupo GTI under the title Tiny Heroes. Gets a good right up !
-
Nice alloys, what's the quality / finish like from Smart wheels Manchester ?
-
I'LL second that !
-
Sorry for delay in replying, yep passed no problems, bloke said its in superb condition. I was chuffed with that.
-
Much better than the black wheels, very nice !
-
I presume you lift the seats forward 1st were people sit , then put the rear seats down ? Also i find removing the head rests helps a bit.
-
Very very nice !
-
Mmm, unless its the 17s, must be something slightly wrong, although doesn't feel like it, its due a MOT and service end of March, will ask them to check it over a bit more than usual.

My TDI is mapped by Awesome , but that doesn't mean less mpg ,does it? in fact in some cases you can get more, so I've heard. Also i have 17" alloys on mine too. But still the same rolling radius ( or not far of as my 14" alloys ) would they make such a big difference. Like i say engine wise its driving brilliantly.
