TMTuning to the rescue

Well Yesterday was a big day at work and was grumpy as hell when I got home cause of the dweeb going to slow infront of me on the freeway home

That changed last night when I received two boxes one really heavy from TMTuning



With these Inpro goodness:


All up what came was a new billet shifter leather bound, billet coolant cap, US style cup tray for the centre console.

Also got billet oil cap and door lifterrs curtesy of raymond.

Ray also let me borrow his plastic welder which I will be doing some work to the front bar tonight and then taking it back to the panel beaters, cause of some incompetant f*cktard third party mob that they use

Anyway I have a quick question and need of opinions in which path I follow. Pics to follow:



This or



I like the second choice but the panel beaters are complaining that they won't be able to put in the bolts in the air ducts. I like the second one but I would like to get some opinions of what you guys think!

Cheers Steve

Just let it be known worst photoshop ever lol.

[evorobin]

Flush rocks I agree

[Tim]

thats a good point. How the heck will you attach the bumper if you cover all the bolts?! As i said lastnight though. The second option looks nicer in my opinion

Yeah the panel beater made a valid point to be honest I think I would have to do it from behind I think just leaving enough room to put the boltd through I wonder how the US guys do it

[tassie_euro_mk1]

yea second pic looks sweet. but if it turns out too hard then the first option is definately good too. both looks sweet but try for number 2

i think this is a job for VW Vortex! Post a thread in the mk3 section up there asking. Im sure u will get plenty of replies. then once u know report back. Im curious!

leave the brake ducts (?) there i reckon. breaks up the bumper a bit, looks too plain without them. good mod too, looks 10x better than standard, imo.

[DubSteve]

Hmm OK back from the tex with some news ad with my first reply such as

leave it out... duh

Ahhhhhha Although I did get put on a good website on how to plastic weld which was good they talk about using Fuser seems like filler or something where can I get that from?

Bog it up

You could always fabricate a part to sit in the air ducts to make it as flash as possible, but still removeable.

Hmm I have thought about that but I think I might just get a flush straight I don't see why you can't just put the bolt from the back thats all.

key word = laziness

they just couldn't be bothered. I reckon do it... I've seen it done before so why wouldn't it work on yours...

Yeah thanks Lachie and if it comes to the worst I will do it you must be able to put it in from behind it can't be that bad!
