The official I have ordered/received my new MKVI thread

[fully]

congrats on your new car

[Candyman]

God, how do you guys who have your R's stop yourself from buying "crap" off EBay for the car while waiting for it to arrive

I have a large box of stuff already and I have 3 weeks to go !

I am such an eBay whore

It is worse at night.. the DRL and tails attract a lot of looks.. I get it a lot.. highly recommend you get the let number plate leds.. makes the rear really pop

Thinking about it but more for assisting RVC visibility.

I just put the carbon fiber inserts into the boot logo.. that is a must.. the black plastic is terrible they should have at least put the piano black finish in there..

Hey everyone. Is anyone tracking their expected delivery from a ship that docked in Melb. 21/22nd July? would be interested to hear progress from that point. .... this last bit of waiting is getting very hard. .

Oh no, you didn't ?? Hope that was a joke.

They look tacky and after a few months they go white in the sun.

umm no .. it wasn't a joke.. they look great.. the car doesn't get left in the sun so if they fail it wont be for a while. Don't know what you have seen but doesn't look tacky at all

Fair enough

I am not a fan of carbon fibre stick ons but each to their own.

Wow!!! half your luck! Us - poor, patient (?) Melbournians are still in limbo!!! Grrrrr. But hey, enjoy when you get it.

Anyone in Melbourne waiting for their car that was on the Torino? it docked on the 28/7 but the dealer rang my friend to say there is a backlog at Patrick's thus there will be a 3 week clearing time.

What a shame. I'm waiting for mine, but it supposedly arrived on 21 or 22 - ship Tortugas or something similar, but can't find anything with that or similar name in the shipping arrivals list. .... 3 weeks... damn.

[Candyman]

The Tortugas was in Brissie a few days ago

Those waiting in Brissy won't have too long to wait for their "new arrivals" then; hopefully.
