  4. Few things done Finally removed my helpers, i also have shorter rear springs to put in at some point. Chopped my solid headrests down to replace the hoops, also got my hands on some more cambridge rear lights so got them all smoothed off and de tangoed then treated it to a wash and a layer off Kleenfreaks Moji wax TT pedals turned up today will get them at some point over xmas! Unfortunately the wheels i had my eye on sold so ive been looking at BBS Rs or RM's
  5. Litte update with the TT Footrest not sure if its done right but im pretty happy with it, just need the tt pedals to match now Quick mock up: Polished up: Fitted
  6. Looks amazing as always Ben looking forward to seeing at shows again
  7. Love those photos man! looks stunning excited to see the fitment on them new wheels, hope it works out!
  8. Few little updates for everyone got round to giving the car a much needed wash after a good 3 or 4 weeks without a clean also my sharan 90mm rear badge and audi tt foot rest came, got the badge fitted looks so much cleaner should of done it ages ago! Also made a start on modifying the tt footrest for the lupo think ive finally found some new cambridge rears after someone smashed mine hopfully getting a nice fancy double din for xmas to so will add another nice touch to the interior! photos: Anther i found from Show & Glow Snow foam! Sharan rear badge on
  9. Will be going back to the GTI clock cover anyway also prefer it! I have a spare set of the vent if I wanna change back to originals anyway! That steering wheel is what I'm looking for! Trouble is trying to get it wired up as I'm not very good with that sort of thing!
  10. Pretty good day today went and got some bolts for the seats! Got them fitted within about two hours, easy when the brackets are already there Look so nice but i now have a bad habit of just sitting in the car as there so comfy! Really do need to find a mk6 flat bottom to match up with them now Fitted the flocked clock cover to but think i prefer the GTI one so might switch it back at some point! (also sorry for the bad iphone photos, no excuse when i have a DSLR)
  11. Had a couple of parcels today got some new vents and heater surround for when i get the interior plastics painted properly, also won a flocked clock cover on ebay, not sure which one to run yet so ill have a little play tomorrow, hopefully ill get the front seats bolted in tomorrow as i have the day off work
  12. Thanks man! i love it, just need a mk6 steering wheel now to bring it together plus a few other bits to finish off the inside!
  13. Its lovely! Yes ive been looking into the mk5/6 wheels, seems like alot of work but im sure ill sort something out. Agreed looks loads cleaner without it!
  14. Couple of small updates finally got round to cleaning up my Bullet wheels after taking them off for winter, gave them a little polish up too Also i plan on getting a few interior bits painted, heater vents, center console etc so thought id give the smaller bits a try with a rattle can, finish is pretty bad will be done properly at some points! Also decided to take all the camo off as it clashed with the new seats and just looked so tacky! Then i got round to getting one off those chrome light switches Current winter mode
  15. I know! absolutely in love with it! Thanks Amber! i will do don't worrie Yours to after all the effort you've put into it!
  16. So a few things have happened since my last update! Might as well let the pictures do the talking! Few more photos from Show & Glow! Picked up some new ultra bright sidelights Few recent photos that i snapped before the bullets came off for winter! Then this happened someone hit my car while it was parked, no cctv in a dark car park, ruined bumper and cracked Cambridge rear light Got the bumper off the next weekend, popped it out the best i could slightly split the paint but it will do for now Finally managed to find myself a nice new interior! thanks to amber! Fancy some new wheels now, also took all the camo bits off looked so tacky compared to the new interior, lot of plans that will happen over winter so
  17. Really am sorry for neglecting my thread, i will make a point of keeping it updated over the winter! Always posting things on instagram so follow me @craigmahoneyy for more regular photos! So ive been using Kleenfreaks detailing products for a good year now, i was emailed by them and asked if i would be on there stand at Show & Glow which i was delighted with! So the prep began! Decided that i needed a cleaner looking rear number plate rather than a plastic yellow one so i figured as im not running a front plate all the time with the smooth bumper i would spray up my pressed one and run the plastic one in the window. Turned out okay in the end! Next i began sorted the paint work out, it was pretty swirly and had been doing my nut in for ages to treated myself to a dual action polisher and some pads and set to work. Pretty long night but got all the car done late Thursday night, finished the rest of it off on the Friday ready to drive down on the Saturday. Taped up the bumper to stop stone chips and dirt! Inside the show! Manged to pic up a sport lower bumper off a mate last week to!
  18. Thanks! No got the bumper smooth professionally
  19. You know i already love this excited to see the changes man!
  20. SO its been months since i updated this! Dont use it much anymore anyway lots has happened! Basically went to Edition38 had a mint weekend in show and shine but realised i was so unhappy with my car. Changes had to be made. Brought gti sun visors etc! retrimed the headliner and rear pillars in alcantara! Next up i brought some bullet steels! always wanted them so happy with how they look compared to the reps! Spaced out the rears! Next came the camo! Went to players 7.0! Then this happened! Smooth front As she stands now! Plans are to go lower all round and camber rears, also after some new seats!
