      Brembo 312mm brake set up with HEL lines (ignore the faded clear coat thanks to leaking brake fluid, soon to be refurbed!)

      Genuine SEAT Sport strut brace - not as great a fit as I thought, had one on my MK1 Fabia VRS that fitted perfectly...

      Dad's over from the UK helping with whole new bush set up - new front and rear wishbone/control arm bushes. Got VW to just do the pressing because we were failing with a hack saw - $250 - just to press out and press in the new bushes. Never. Ever, going to VWA for anything ever again.
      The tool is less than that with post from the UK. Dead easy to fit them.

        • Cheers Gav, now I know for next time. It was a last resort as the car is a daily and we'd had it on axle stands all day trying to do it :/

                    Forgot this one though - pulled up the contrast so you can appreciate the scrubbing!

                      What are you doing for bumpstops in the rear?

                          Cut the stock ones in half - didn't even bother glueing the middle together, I hit tyre and wheels before anything else.

                          • Yeah, same.

                            Might look at something for another car later, they aren't going to last forever as they are...
