A mk3 just got posted for wrecking if your chasing glass.
/ you have recaro's in this thing?

Yes.

[Ryan_R]

Maybe get some 'darkest legal tint' on the windows to match the bonnet and make the glass stronger.

[Zalemate]

already got 15% tint all round will have to get it on the rear window to match. As you can see from the pics at the start the tint is the only thing holding the rear window together!

Yeah hayden i do have recaro buckets in the front.. but down the track id like to do either mk4 recaro or bora leather interior
for now the recaro buckets are good enough!

I'd be prepared to take these off your hands when you do that.

What he said, out of interest where are you indicators located?

[Zalemate]

Cheers guys.

Indicators are just 2 of the guard indicators wired into the lower black grill right down near the ground. Pretty hard to see unless it's night time.

Fark dude this is a absolute poo situation! Sorry to hear, I would absolutely be heart broken, keep your chin up mate the only thing that you can do.

[Wolfgang]

That is just farked.

That lowlife doesn't deserve oxygen.

Good to see you are fixing it, car looked great at the Nats.

Also loving the support from fellow forum members, it's what makes VWWatercooled.

[CPITUNING]

F!@#$n retards. What goes around, comes around mate.

It's already shaping up sweet. I really admired your car at the Nats. Good luck with the fixes. Hope to see it shining again soon.

[Zalemate]

Thanks everyone its been a **** house few weeks! ahwell slowly getting there!

Alrighty, so ive got a new windscreen fitted which i got off a mate (legend), called up novus and they came around pulled the windscreen out of my mates VR6 and then came around to my place the next day to take the broken windscreen out and fit the new one..
While they were doing this they noticed that the previous windscreen was fitted extremely poorly and could have resulted in a much worse situation if i was to ever be in a car crash, So im kinda thankful that my windscreen got broken as now i know my new one is safe and i have a lifetime warranty with it! winning!
Still waiting on the rear glass but should have that sorted in the next week or 2 hopefully!

In other news.. ive ordered the last 2 tyres i need for the new wheels so i should have them fitted on friday and then once my adapters are all sorted (hopefully this week too) i should be able to fit the new wheels on the weekend! Hooooray for the new look! will post pics soon!

[Zalemate]

Alright time to update this thread!

Been a few weeks since my car got smashed up and i now have the car all back together after struggling to find a new rear window!

Also got the new adapters on and the new wheels!

Update with new wheels on i now have less than 45mm clearance to my sump.. tried to slide a piece of 70x45 under my car and it got stuck, I also took out one of the small reflectors that are glued to the road.. **** haha time to look into the mk5 r32 sump i think! but car looks tops love it !

will give it a clean today and chuck some photos up, one thing can you buy new rear spoiler/wings or has anyone got one in really good nick that i can buy? i wanted to get new glass with no holes like my previous one but there were none is australia and the only one was in singapore cost $600 not fitted so i just went for a second hand rear glass which came with the wing and it actaully looks alright and suits the new look of my car

Pics will be up later
