Tell me about it happy with how they have came out going to be fitting my turbo intake pipe tomorrow sounds like a pig of a job

Dont say that, thats on my list tomorrow to fit my Samco TIP haha.

I already had a nightmare on Friday with the alterator and dipstick tube lol

[Vw nut]

Lol weather permitting

[Vw nut]

It's going to be easy or a nightmare I've gone with a creations Motorsport one hopefully it fits

[Vw nut]

So today finished the trim am happy with them

[Chrismawa]

Looks good mate, is that a genuine Anniversary gearknob?

Did you get your TIP done?

[Vw nut]

Thanks mate yes the gearknob is real well I think so paid 45 pounds for it lol didn't do the tip in the end did you get yours done ?

Seems a bargain that seen them for a lot more.

AYe mate ill update my thread soon - but you were right it was a pain in the ass! haha.

[Vw nut]

That's why I am putting it off lol maybe it is fake but looks like a good fake

[Chrismawa]

Its worth the hassle though much better quality than the OEM one.

[Vw nut]

Did you notice it being any quicker

[Vw nut]

That was 45 pounds second hand

[Vw nut]

What I did do today was try to fit a anniversary rear valance it's not a original part but good quality ended up removing the rear bumper to try and fit it got the bumper off going to try and fit it to the bumper tomorrow then put everything back on then take it off and then spray it fingers crossed

[Vw nut]

So today picked these BBS Anni wheels for 400 love them I think the best looking wheel for the MK4

[Vw nut]

And the all important center caps which cost almost as much as the rims

[Vw nut]

Just not too sure if I want to keep the vw centres or change them too BBS centres

[Vw nut]

So finished spraying my anniversary splitter tonight just need a couple coats of laquer then a good machine buff then back on the car really happy with the colour match

[anonymous-user]

Very nice. Keep the VW centre caps

[Vw nut]

Cheers bud I am thinking keeping the VW center caps too feel like the cars really coming together now ready for the show season

Where did you get the Pioneer double din?

I use some cheap “Pumpkin” jobbie. Cost £300 IIRC with all the (mostly useless so you can save a lot of money) goodies but runs Android 8.1

What you should get with it

Bluetooth and phone (works great)
Android OS so you can have Waze (nav) and Spotify (music) and pretty much any app you want
Internet (you need a SIM, so dont bother unless you want to pay monthly to use inbuilt wifi for something pointless when driving)
Built in OBD fault code reader with diagnostics. Now thats a good option



I’d look in to it if you’re ever looking to replace the Pioneer

[Vw nut]

Had the pioneer a couple of years got it off a mate (mate rates lol) happy with it would like sat Nov but had a bad experience with a cheap eBay one was fine until any type of built up area would just lose signal which is not great living 15 mins from London lol
