Looking sexy ;) keep up the good work!

When taking photos do you ever get people passing by giving you really odd looks? Or is it just me :confused: happens all the time! I have to double check that I've not gone out the house naked! The amount of odd looks I get just taking photos of my car, I don't get it!

The odd look probably... doesn't bother me. I try to do it in quiet locations anyway, don't want too many other cars in the picture! :cartman: Hold on, that sounds well dodgy.... [B)]

Ha! I don't want to know what you get up to in these quiet secluded places away from everyone in your car! :lol:

Cheers Pete, didn't give it too much up there... it was a bit cold and icey!

13th January snowy pics

Well, had another day off school today as the roads were carnage around here and ther were no trains again! Took some pictures of the car by the garages. The Golf GTi is ChromePete's (another member of here!)... his wheels gave me the inspiration for mine!

Good idea... one day maybe! Thanks mate!





*UPDATE*

Just changed some bulbs... not very interesting but changed both number plate bulbs (as one had blown) and passenger side rear light!

;) Plans for future mods being out together too....

Latest mod on the way...

Well, its been a bit quiet recently on this thread as I haven't really done anything to the FR for a while... until this AM! :funk:
Purchased this morning and should be delivered mid-week. Will not be going on the car immediately, just more of a project for now.

:cartman: Any ideas?

newsouth power gasket although i cant see that being much of a project.
paint for your brakes? :think:

Power gasket takes about 20mins to fit, just be careful you don't drop any bolts :) Put one on mine last weekend, will wait and see what difference it makes.

Good idea, maybe one for the future though.

one of those aerial toppers??? heard they can be quite fiddly to fit ;)

Definitely not!



:help: Clue 1 = Something only found on the Cupra models....
