  1. Had no luck at all posting in wanted section and guessed this may get a bit better results... Upper bumper mainly but may take lower too if the grill bit hasn't been painted If its cheap. its good. If its in the Northeast, its even better.
  2. As much as i would like that to be true, theres not much to putting your foot down through 1 gear once or twice i let him have a little lead to start but mine still passed up until 70 mph of course
  3. My friend got a sport on the weekend, and my sport is clearly faster as proved a couple of times... but we dont know how? :S After a quick look his exhaust manifold seems to be like the ones of 75hp where each cylinders ports are bunched up as quick as poss and i think it has a Cat in the manifold? like this i think(not definite as heat shield is still on): http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2002-VOLKSWAGEN-LUPO-1-4-CATALYTIC-CONVERTER-MANIFOLD-2000770200-/280777620198?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item415fa67ae6#ht_4075wt_1185 Could this be the cause of the slight slower-ness? my car : 100k miles very poor service history and a buggered engine thats been running a pre-used belt for 20000 miles...and burns more oil than petrol His car : 50k miles really good history, well serviced regularly.
  4. Will give them a go not that I don't want to pay a garage, its more that I can't The small income of mine has now disappeared. Done wheel alignment in a maintenance course so know how to do it with the equipment but without it im useless, thanks guys will get back with results asap
  5. The new lupo has a big tracking issue and i haven't got any allignment equipment. just driving a little bit on the drive the wheel turns a half turn the left and the car pulls to left. Could anybody determine what to adjust? the cambers look equal now as i sorted this first as they couldn't have been any more negative
  6. Bought a soft blue lupo 1.4 e about two weeks ago with front end damage and decided since a little work is actually going into this loop i'd make her a Thread Got it for a bargain of 300! Just picking it up A quick wash and strip down on the night it found its way home TThe interior is great condition for milage and age Then the new bits came! Haven't got pictures of all yet will get rest on tuesday when the rest are due Front bumper, using the smoothed upper half as prefer the standard lower Lots of chisel work getting through the bodge to split the twoCaAnd lucy was fixed in no time!

  9. Ok coool asked if he has anymore of the front end so waiting on reply. Wants 115 for panel, crash bar, rad + fan. Also sent number in message on DNE for sub
  10. In need of new slam panel and got a slight problem my panel looks like this and the one i've found to replace has a full length radiator... The part numbers are the same but can be seen theres a diffence... would i have to use the full length radiator and will it be suitable for my car? Also what is this on the exhaust manifold? my sport doesn't have it and was just wondering as was planning on changing the manifold. Will car run with out it? Thanks
  11. What type/ colour door cards? + price? interested in the left hand inner door handle
  12. Mines similar too, 2000 and i tried my friends clocks in of a 02 and it didn't light up but with my clocks in his everything lit up just like his did...

    Nobody have anything? Lupoboz?
  16. sure its just like the lupo, two torx screws in arch into the lower bumper then pull the bumper out towards you if your at side of car then it slides of the front, just a couple of screws hold the lamps in, easy enough to get lower bumper off pretty straight forward just can't explain to easily lol

  18. Complete random issue with sunroof as one day it decided on any setting on the dial it will open up and then close again? nothing else. And when key is held in the door to put windows etc up, the sun roof opens and closes? ???? really confused only other problem its ever had is when closing from the slide back position is it would bounce back about half way, seen there was something jammin' it, removed the something, it worked fine again and then just for it got to this stage it started bouncing back again Ideaas please?

    Driver side wing, driver side headlight front bumper, indicator/grill suround with indicator sockets, badged grill (may consider others for right price) All preferred to be in soft blue colour And looking out for but not urgent: Passenger side window motor Coilovers Standard 1.4 back box Headunit single or double din Wheels; sport set or some moderately wide If you have any postt where it is and price and i'll get back asap
  21. Any chance you could give a list of whats left? maybe a pic of car to give rough ideas? after a few bits and probs forget some of them: driver side wing indicator suround + grill and front bumper driver side headlight passenger elec windows motor
  22. got the pin out... is anyone selling one of these? or a door card cheap?
  23. Relocating battery to wheel well for less wires? but then the all the necessary wires need for a car to work would have to travel back and will probablys be 10x harder to route, i think?
  24. The hook for the cable on the handle randomly snapped on new years, after taking door card off it looks like i need the whole plastic bit the handle sits in? if you can even get it off?! tryed for ages to get the glue off. And i'm guessing chances of finding a replacement blue tim and tom card is unlikely... anyone know if you can by the little handle ?
