Mr ColinG Posted April 3, 2010 Report Share Posted April 3, 2010 Thats bad, I ordered mine and got them within a week.Liking the light switch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
99hjhm Posted April 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2010 Thats bad, I ordered mine and got them within a week.Liking the light switch Yeah, first some issues with the supply of the struts, and then an issue with the struts themselves. Ment to be next week now. Thanks... Wanted one of these switches for ages after seeing them in the Mk5 R32, knew they wouldn't work on a Lupo, this one is the same design but off a different VW model.

99hjhm Posted April 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2010 (edited) Forgot, did they too (B-pillar trims). We made a little mistake by not preping them properly, just asked the painter at work to lacquer over the factory paint, it's fine, but the panels could be alot flatter, I've polished throught the lacquer after flatting them back. They do look damn good though. Edited April 3, 2010 by 99hjhm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
99hjhm Posted April 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2010 Just fitted the Whiteline rear anti roll bar which I've had since way before Christmas. Fitting kit was a little incorrect , but it's on. Phone pics in the dark FTW!Took it for a little drive, islands are a good laugh, even with the std suspension. Only on the softist setting at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
