the old fan came out a doddle without taking the bumper off. a few minor adjustment had to be made to the housing for the twin fan as the connector for the wires to the motor didn't quite fit. so a small bit had to be cut off the housing to make it fit snug. also a good clean around the area of the radiator is needed.

last week i received my aero wipers and strut brace. also stripped the back out

not as simple as i thought twin fanning

just as i went to spray the fans after spraying the housing i realise that the vtr fans are built the opposite way round to the vts fans. so instead of blowing the air onto the rad an the engine bay it will be blowing towards the front bumper. so 2 vts or gti fans are needed despirately.

thinking spraying the show cage either red or black tomoz seen as theres no point in doing the fans now till i can get hold of 2 vts ones

collo · 19th October 2009, 22:33

just got round to uploading the pics of the twin fan housing being sprayed. still waiting to get vts or gti fans to put in it.

Just found the pictures on my phone of when i sprayed the centre console. Getting it masked up was a bit fiddley but worth it in the end

finished product was sprayed in wicked red to match the colour of the car. i sanded the whole unit down appart from the bits that i wasn't going to spray with 800 grain if i remember rightly, then i primed it and it then took 2 coats of colour and then finally lacquered ..........
