My Burgundy Mk3

[stefcio007]

Good to know, I've always thought that there was a steel brace that had to be cut out with a grinder to install the glovebox, perhaps that's the US market

US market requires an adapter for everything...must be such a pain.

When you come out to your car and notice this.
I know it wasn't there yesterday when I washed the car. Its too small to bother fixing really and its not dented but it anoys me to know that its there.



Ohwell, put another 450/500 Ks on the car this weekend alone driving around the hills. In real need of decent tyres, coilovers and to put in new damn trailing control arm bushes. Also noticed temp gauge drop down to below cold just cruising along the freeway? Anyone else had this. Might see what a new temp sensor does.

Other than that car is great.

So I got some new tyres yesterday. Now I can turn a corner without getting tyre squeel... At 30kph... [emoji108]. Love the handing of the car in the hills now.

Also did a rear wiper delete because i hate the look of the wiper. Just not sure if I should color match the bung with the hatch or just go for a black rear badge.

Neat mod! Nice and minimalist.

I'd look into hydrophobic products e.g. RainX on the rear windscreen now that you won't have a wiper to use.

[BurgundyMk3]

Yea I have some rainx around. I'll chuck some on when I get a chance.

Are you thinking of removing the spoiler or leaving it?

Are you thinking of removing the spoiler or leaving it?

I'm most likely going to leave it because it leaves holes in the glass and I don't want to have to plug them. Also means I have to mess around with the brake lights.

Keen to see the vr swap, make sure there is a thread covering it. Good luck.

Gonna need some better pics bro

[BurgundyMk3]

Gonna need some better pics bro

Yep, pictures will most definitely be coming.

[BurgundyMk3]

So here are a few pics. Its not exactly "low" but it will do for now as im already scraping on anything that looks like a speed bump. I didn't exactly tell my parents either, so ill lower it gradually and say my stock springs have just sagged.
When I get access to a better camera I'll take some proper shots. So these are still samsung quality at its finest.

Low only counts for shows. Looks good man get some slightly more aggressive wheels will be sweet
