just a couple more pictures without hubcubs! and after a quick wash i know it could be lower but for the time being im happy with it not being too much of a pain in the arse

how shes sitting right about now still about 55mm of thread left on the front and adjusters are still in the back! just need to get tyres sorted for the bbs and get em on and itll be sweeeet

insurance is sorrrterd so watch this space for a lowered lupo in the early days of next week people! wheels will also be going on in a couple weeks when ive bought tyres!

^^^^ this was the best option for me when my drivers side went,, lock is perfect, and came pretty quick considering it came from germany! highly recommended by me!

oh and this one that i managed to get a snap of a while back hahaha!

guy near me who drives a white q7 with the plate, '300' lmao, tooo much money

you still got these??

you have pm

insurance churchill dont insure any mods at all if youre under 25!! end of april is when my renewal is so im gonna switch over to admiral and get the bbs on and slam it on its arse

just picked up some JOM Bluelines off a mate whos only run them for 3 weeks! still cant get them on till the end of april but at least theyre sitting here ready!

how long have they been on the car/mileage??

summin like this mate? http://www.halfords....tegoryId_165705

yeh i read about that earlier on aswell, didnt seem too much of a challenge lupoboz said he can get a new lock that matches my key for 50 if i give him the reg and chassis number so i have a fair few options gonna get a second key made up first of all incase the one i have gets jammed in! then try some graphite spray see if i can free it up

Hi people, yesterday i went to unlock my car door, turned 90 degrees and unlocked, then got stuck! i couldnt turn it at all and was pretty scared i was gonna snap the key it the lock! i ended up using brute force to turn the lock back and get the key out. i tried it again today and once the key is in, it wont turn in either direction unless you really twist it hard which i dont want to do! Could i fix this? i was thinking graphite spray, would that work do we think? If not, do people know if VW can repair locks and if so how much is it likely to be? Thanks, Daniel.

theyre just a bunch of monkeys at the end of the day, cant believe it came out worse than when it went in though, they like to think they know what theyre doing thanks man, yeh im really happy with it, didnt think id be able to align everything as well as it actually turned out! the wings were a bitch to get out because theyre just cross head screws in the sill and door shut and that and theyve just been undersealed to death! had to invest in an impact driver and a good 50 whacks of a hammer just to loosen them up! got there in the end though! will get better pics up soooon

wont be going back to kwik fit in a rush! bloody rubbish they are! went down to get the tracking and that checked just now, after about an hour of faffing about they came back and said the tracking is fine but the rear flag is out so they adjusted that. took it for a drive down the road and realised the wheel wasnt straight when driving in a straight line, bearing in mind this is what they were supposedly adjusting, which clearly isnt right, so we went back and told them and they started saying well we dont know how your car normally drives, but clearly it doesnt take a genius to recognise that the steering wheel is sitting wonky?! so after moaning they agreed to do it again and sort it out and after another hour and about 5 of them working on it they said it was sorted. just driven it home and im sure its still not right but i wont be going back there any time soon. theyre fitters, not mechanics.

just remembered i still havent got any pictures up of the mini boot build i knocked up a few months ago so anyway here it is:

Insurance wont let me do any mods! bloody churchil, but come april theyll be on and itll be slammed!

Cheeers mate! I was pretty happy with it aswell, thought itd take a lot longer than 2 weeks to source all the parts but werent too bad at all!

and here she is now, after 2 weeks shes back not so easy to put it back together in the pouring rain and darkness but i got there in the end sorry about the terrible picc

well heres how she was sitting 2 weeks ago when she got broken..... looks much worse than it was and now all i have to get on is the lights, bumper and grill and that and itll be sortedddd, all for about £300, hardly what i needed but not too painful all in all! will get pics of her fixed later on today

If anyone has a set of headlights or even one or the other i need them ASAP. Let me know. preferably within about an hour of hp3 0qj

picked everything up that i still needed last night mate, but thanks anyway

had great feedback from people about parts and just one week on and i have already got the slam panel, radiator, grill, indicators, and the passenger side wing! headlights are in the post as we speak and picking up a drivers side wing, bonnet, front bumper, indicator surround and bonnet catch, on tuesday! so hopefully within two weeks of crashing it and just £290 on parts itll be back on the road!

Still looking for a flash red bonnet, front bumper, indicator surround and drivers side wing!
