Same as mine

[skodalad]

It is mate, from your recommendation, easy enough to fit??

[joe_vrs_tdi]

I done mine with the bumper off the car and was really easy to work and shape. Should come with basic instruction saying to cut it on the bends where it goes on the bumper to make the curves more flowing. I took mine off though when I had my bumper painted and isn't as good as the first time around.

[skodalad]

Alright mate, sounds easy enough to me! Your up for sale now mate?? if so how come??

[joe_vrs_tdi]

Getting to that age mate need a house n all so free a couple grand up to put towards a deposit.

[skodalad]

Fair play dude, Ive spent so much on this now I will probably keep it haha until i see my perfect car lol 

[joe_vrs_tdi]

Yer that's the only thing that annoys me, spent more on modding the car than the car is worth. Can't imagine your total with the air and all as well.

[skodalad]

The i know what u mean mate, I have spent £8000 on it so far, and if i sell it now i would ask £7000 which i don't think is unreasonable. But its not for sale yet haha

[trisholmes]

A few pictures from the steam cleaning session, couldn't believe how dirty they were!

[skodalad]

Well worth doing mate! Huge difference! I haven't treated it yet as i need to go over it again, but i will get round to it mate, if you do it first let me know what you go for

[Adamweal]

Dr Leather wipes followed by Gtechniq L1 is a winning combination for me. car is looking great! 

[skodalad]

May have to give it a try if its that good mate! Cheers mate

[joshcowin]

Skodalad, the whole car looks really nice! I especially love the seats! How much of a pain were thy to get in? I have heated seats so may have to do without heat if i swap them!

[skodalad]

Thanks mate, appreciate it! They were a nightmare, all new shims and brackets made up and having too reweld the arches from taking the old brackets off, quite a bit of work in it really mate, depends on what you get, these will run just a 12v feed from the ignition. easy.

[skodalad]

Got annoyed with where my air ride controller was, kept getting my foot caught on the wire haha

 

So, I went to B&M, bought some cheap ass expanding foam and filled the ash tray with it

 

 

Took ages to dry but then started work on it

 

 

Managed to get it pretty flat, just a quick measure of the remote then test fit!

 

 

happy with how it came out, just got to cover it in material that I've left at my girlfriends house haha

 

I'll finish it off tomorow and get some pictures!

[skodalad]

Ha, I let it dry before cutting it lol 

 

O and I got this through tonight aswell 

 

 

And i've been accepted for fitted uk, which should be mint, hope to see some of you there!
