    The parts came in pretty cheap too at a total of $47 including all postage from the UK. I'd be happy to show it in real life but i don't have coilovers yet

    As soon as it's fitted, the pics will be here. Was gonna do it tonight but its raining and i have no undercover areas, except the local servo!

    Hey, that's not a bad idea. Awesome lighting, food on demand, a toilet and usually a few tools on hand!

    I like the idea of the blue badge on the Mk3... want to see it in real life too which means you will need to bring your Mk3 to the Coilover Extravaganza!

      Thats cool, we need a stock example or two for comparrison reasons... and it's a good excuse to go for a drive

      If it has an engine or heartbeat it's going to cost you.

        Ok folks, i managed to find time over the weekend to install my new bits and pieces and i'm very happy with the results. The smoked repeaters look 100 times better and the blue badge fits in sooo good with the paint colour. Overall, a worthy and simple upgrade.

        Here's the pics as promised..

        Lovely upgrade.

        And now for the badge.

        Old badge off:



        New badge on:





        Ohh yeah, one little extra treat I picked up from Loon yesterday. Love the front lip



        It took about 20mins to do the badge all up and i'm very happy with the result. Subtle change, but i love it.

        Whatcha think?

        Jon

            haha, all those pics and you spot the rims!!

            Yeah i really like the look of the wheels and even though they're only 15's they suit the MK3. Just need to get it lower to hug them a little better.

                Is it hot chilli pearl effect? It's almost a twin of my old GL with those wheels!

                  Thanks guys. Glad you liked the tweaks.

                  Not sure of the official colour but it sounds like the one you said. I'll check the paint code and find out, as its handy to know for future reference.
