[samsdad]

non sunroof roofskin has arrived more progress to follow

[Stealth106]

i think you can get b6s too!

and there are two different types of b8s....

the grp n's have a different cap holding the strut in.... if its a polished aluminium one they are grp n's if you have the copper/brass coloured one then will be one of the above

[samsdad]

colour for car chosen and its getting a full on build now as ive set myself the goal of turning up to my wedding in it next year

[samsdad]

[samsdad]

gti 6 master cylinder and calipers ready for rebuilding and powder coating and my bargin boss to add to my pile of parts
