  1. Few Updates.

    My car got sponsored a couple of months ago by MadCowUK which is a detailing company with insaaaaaaansely good products!!

    I changed all the horrible grey plastics for black ones. Still got a few more bits to change out.

    Chassis Notch

    LED Front Lights from Imperial Automotive Lighting.

    Lupo GTI seats.

    Momo Team 280 with Brown & Geeson Snap Off Boss.

    This is how it sat with the Chassis Notch.

  2. Very tasty wheels!

    Lovely mate

    Liking those Melbers mate, they look real nice!

    Wonderfull!!

    Very tidy lupo. :thumbsup:

    Thanks for the good comments :) Getting some custom centre caps made up for the Melbers because someone has stupidly put BBS caps on them. They aren't BBS reps either so i've no idea why they've put BBS caps on them...

    It seems impossible to find original centre caps as they're very rare wheels!

    Couple more shots from an awesome sunset the other night!

    Gonna start getting some quotes to get my smooth bumper painted. Hopefully i'll get it on in time for VW Festival in 3 weeks.

    Thanks, Adam

  3. No one seems to use this site much anymore...

    Picked up a smooth front bumper for the lupo a couple of weeks ago i just need to get it sprayed.

    I also bought a very rare set of wheels called Melber L141.

    From what I can gather the company no longer exists and I've only ever seen 2 sets of these for sale(none in this country).

    They're 7j ET12 which poked a bit on the rear so I added a little bit of camber.

    Interior changes up next after the smooth bumper goes on.

  4. Not updated in a while!

    Recently picked up a set of OEM roof bars which i've always been after. Look quite cool and also useful for when I want to use my bike.

    Got the rear to sit a lot lower than what it was which I'm happy about. Just need the front to come down a bit to match. A chassis notch may be needed.

    With some very very short springs and rolling the arch lips me and my mate managed to get it to sit like this. :)

    Next up is to have some bodywork smoothed over and to start on the interior.

    Thanks, Adam :)

  5. those wheels :clap: very nice

    Really nice.. Good choise

    Thanks guys :)

    Well Ultimate Dubs this weekend was amazing. Everything I expected it to be. So many incredible Lupos have given me so much inspiration to keep going with mine. :thumbup: Met some awesome people too :)

    Took around 300 photos and they turned out amazing! These are a few photos I took of mine from UD.

  6. So the wheel refurb was going really well, all curb marks filled or wet sanded away. The wheel was completely prepped for primer... When i applied the paint it reacted with existing paint on the wheel after 10 mins :(

    I'd taken a lot of time and effort to prep the wheels and wasn't up for doing it all again but down to bare metal.

    So after it reacted I decided to get them done properly haha :innocent: Dropped them off in Manchester at 'The Wheel Specialist'

    It's a shame they didn't work out but they're gonna look sooooo good in the colour I chose :shifty::shades:

    Got 25mm adapters on the way and from my calculations they should look pretty good!(fingers crossed) Also need to trim my rear arch lips as they'll rub a bit.

    Looking forward to UD :thumbup:
