Looks cool as. Nice spec too :p

love red mk3's !

delish!!

I think the wheels have ruined it. Would have been a lot better in silver or satin black imo.

Liking the white wheels man.

Rally slag

On the way down to the Polo Show this year,i filled the petrol tank

up and noticed that the tank was leaking.So i got a tank ordered

from work,gave it a few coats of Hammerite Silver paint and

fitted it.Was a bit of a struggle but we got it on in the end.

The new tank....freshly painted before it went on.

Looking nice there :-D

Me likes, it's a sweet example I really like it. I've seen deals on ebay for that Dynamat but I'm not too sure whether or not I want to remove the soundproofing to save weight or put in some Dynamat (I've heard it's good). What you think? (haven't got a car yet but after a 1.3CL or GT)

P.S. what happened your BBS's? They sold?

Got a bit fed up looking at the dirty old rocker cover in the car....

So i took it into work and had a go at making it look a bit better....

i love that rocker cover, where are you in the uk, fancy doing mine? obvioulsy for a fee!

i have recently got my g40, love it to bits, it is completely standard. still learning what various bits of the car do... so i thought i would ask you what/why you have done to the pipes that come in/out of the rocker cover... and what that filter thing is on the inlet manifold where one of the pipes used to be. please let me know.

oh and by the way, lovely car!

Well i got the rocker cover and the catch tank fitted today

although the catch tank i bought from CBS wouldn't fit and

will need a bracket made for it to fit properly.So i had an

old catch tank that i've fitted until i get a bracket made.....

Next on the agenda....fitting an oil cooler.

The Oil cooler was ordered from PSD yesterday so i went

out and bought some new Durite gauges for the car....

Oil pressure and Boost gauges..

Hopefully the cooler will be here by the weekend and if the

weather doesn't get any worse,i should get them fitted.

Looks good Scott

Ooooh get it fitted and while you're at it paint the highlight of the front VW grille badge in white!! Would be unusual and could look pretty cool!!

I was up at my local scrapyard this morning,despite the shit weather,for

a few bits'n'bobs for the Mk4 and my mates Mk3 and bought myself a

pair of half leather seat from a SEAT Toledo :-D .They're a bit dirty but

more importantley there are no rips or fag burns.... :-D :-D

Picked up my headlight protectors tonight from Richard....

Bastard. I didnt see the buy thread until it was too late.

Should look spot on Scott.

Wired up a set of sidelight bulbs into my indicator lenses

on Sunday morning,fitted my headlight covers and put on

my new number plates....

I bought a set of Compomotive CX's from Polo6n1600i a while back

and had them put in for a refurb in Shadow Chrome.Got them fitted

on tonight and bought a set of Compomotive centre caps for them

from E-bay,should have them fitted for the weekend.

They look pretty smart, Scott!

Could have cleaned the car though!
