Heard really good things about this place and need a fair amount of paint work doing on the lupo. Had a look around for some details but havent found anything! Could any body help?

After buying the car in November i introduced my little GTI Paula to the forum http://forums.clublupo.co.uk/index.php?/topic/97789-paula-the-gti/ Since then a few changes have taken place, with more plans to come for the year! Here is a list of things done to the car off the top of my head: Spax RSX coilovers White LED sidelights and Numberplate lights 3L steering wheel Pioneer AVH-5500bt head unit New red GTI grill strip Sharan 90mm rear badge Private reg Cambridge Lights Front wheels: Rota grid v 7x15 et20, running 5mm spacers to clear the brakes, 195/45/15 Toyo Proxes Rear wheels: Rota grid v 8x15 et0, camber shims, 195/45/15 Toyo Proxes Here's car as it stood at the end of last week after a good wax and polish After going to UD at the weekend ive been inspired to get onto the engine bay, been looking into these Forge Caps http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/performance/caps-covers/forge-vag-models-washer-reservoir-cap http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/performance/caps-covers/forge-alloy-covers-for-oil-water-caps-vag-2-0-engines Without wanting to sound stupid, I know it says they fit the 2.0 VAG models, but would they fit the 1.6?

After fitting that cheapo little repair clip about a month ago now, it's working a treat! Not had any problems since... Not with the wipers anyway

Bulbs up next

I have that problem with the linkage to the passenger side wiper falling off everytime I use them. Easiest repair I've come across are these http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/221282479527?nav=SEARCH&sbk=1 Has anyone used these? Or could recommend anything else?

I turned 18 just over a month ago now and insured myself on my gti for less than I was paying for my 1.0! Check with admiral, they give good quotes, it's worth it for the gti!

Hi all I bought the car a month or so ago now for my 18th Birthday in December. Used to run around in my little black 1.0 and wanted something a bit faster so that landed me with Paula. Car was completely standard when i bought it, since then i've fitted cambridge rear lights, a 90mm rear badge off a Sharan and LED replacement bulbs for the sidelights. I've also managed to get hold of a 3L steering wheel but havent got round to fitting that yet. With any luck she should be going in the workshop next week to get the front bumper recess filled and respayed. Luckily for me this is what the postman brought yesterday! Hopefully these should be on in the next week or so Plans for the next month should be a set of new wheels and get the new plates on ready for ulitmate dubs in march!
