hey yea i do need a new passanger side fog , mine is smashed . !! but your abit far away to coe pick a fog up lol .

yea i "bought" it with the tints as standard bit of a bonus lol, but its standard apart from that , the guy must of raised it before he sold it , but this was the picture that was advertised, god knows . but i suppose it enables me to start from scratch myself . =D

i will be uploading a few more pictures at weekend when i get the spit and polish out

haha

it also said in the advertisement that it came with a decat pipe . from the manifold it just goes straight into the exhaust , but when i got it up on the ramp , it has a cat after the downpipe , bit confused, because my mates mk2 vtr had a cat on the manifold . whats that all about . ? ? lol

thanks for replys guys , considering im new on here

i think if your car is made in 2000 or before it has the cat in the pipe but if its late 2000 onwards it is in the manifold.

im not 100% but i think thats how it is

matthew_wood · 24th November 2011, 18:04
