Finally out of the garage !
 

Got loads done today, got the car out of the garage for a much needed clean up ! watching the F1 at the mo so will keep it short with lots of piks


New discs and pads will be running standard calipers for now !







My GTI lump waiting to get my fly wheel back and all put back together



My collection of bumpers ( dimma ones for sale )



Then a quick clean !





Then i started to strip the back out and the guy who had the car before me covered the back in bitchermin !!! :wall: gana be a bugger to get off but a blow torch should do the trick ! anyone removed this stuff before ?







Comments please :y:

looking good man! nice project! interested to see how this turns out in the end!!

nice project mate looks better then I imaged lol I want those wheels for my black vts how much were they buddy

Yea amazing what a quick clean can do :y:
i got them about 3 years ago there 16" with toyos and i think they were somewhere around £400-500 i carnt really remember, mite be cheaper now tho !
