now sold

Iv'e had a look and there is a threads about taking it off. I did take mine off being a fool I managed to snap the bottom clip to the wings on each side. Iv'e had to refit the panel for now but I can only seem to get one side to clip in is there a trick i'm missing. If anyone knows the parts number for said clips id appreciate it or i guess ill have to go into vw and hope they know what I mean. any advice appreciated

I'd of actually been interested in these, but the barthursts I have need two tyres some badges and are half way through a refurb. Bad times.

Ah cool I appreciate the help, soon as this snow clears i'll pull them off and give them a clean while i'm at it.

Iv'e had a look around and cant see anything anywhere, but I was wanting to remove the trims in the roof gutter. It seems when the previous owner has had work done they have been refitted slightly to far back. i figured they pop off but didn't want to pull at them and snap them.

by lacquer do you mean lacquer based paint or a clear lacquer ? if lacquer based paint, lacquer thinner is probably your best bet but i'm not sure if it would effect the tyre or not if and if its a clear lacquer not sure, though you can get a paint stripper from the likes of halfords that says it doesn't effect plastics such as abs which gets brittle with thinner so that might be better on tyres you'd have to double check. Hope thats helps

Not sure on socket size or anything but just a case of taking the sump plug off, but have something to catch all the oil and a proper way of getting rid of it. also if you take the filler cap off it will help the draining. Not a great deal of information but hope it helps you.

Spotted a red gti with bright green badge and wheels at the seaton sluice sort of area today not sure of time was afternoon, sure i've seen it on here before. sorry some how managed to post this in the wrong section

To start off sorry if there is a thread on this but i've looked and couldn't find one. Basically my 1.4 s has done 48k and my service inspection has come on my dash was wanting to know if anyone could tell me what would usually be checked and or changed at this point. much appreciated Spence

I could be totally wrong but i recall a completely smooth corsa b that had banded steels wrapped like that if it is id imagine it would be vauxhall steels with the added band .(i only say this because its the only car ive seen with steels like that )

I went to see reel big fish last saturday put on an amazing show. Would like to see less than jake as well.

I'd have to agree its an amazing album but pretty much every song has a feature, although i'm loving embrace featuring white lies big fan of them. I'd say i prefer more than alot as an album.

I recall mine broke at the handle too.

I had one i miss it. One of the best toys ever.

Why would you even bother to fit that bumper

Think the purple looks good with the blue of the car would look good with other wheels change from black . Ah right They are a nice set of wheels think the bottle tops suit the lupo well.

The wheels look really good on the car. What wheel are they ?

I've got a set of gti bathursts, think purple will go well with my car being silver.

Lol no I live in Newcastle and the paint code would be appreciated.

Ah really its the perfect colour i've been looking for to paint my wheels if you dont mind me stealing the colour . Did you buy it as a can or was it a spray gun ?

What is the paint you used for the wheels ?

I saw a thread in the how to section that explains it all and what you need .

Good to know there is a few people on here from up here ill have to look in to that meet. ill get a thread up at some point when i get round to it

Im from north of the city centre, Benton to any one who knows the area. wasn't sure if there would be many people from up here on the forum
