what have you done to your car today ?

[bendyb633]

I have a Halfords trade card so will check out the discount first. But thanks for the advice mate

You'd be better off buying the blades off eBay unless you have nearly £40 burning a hole in your pocket, halfords are expensive.

I picked up some genuine Bosch ones for £18.

Wiper blades are very cheap with a trade card. I got a rear one for my lcr for £2 down from £8 and bulbs are cheap too head lamp bulbs for about £1-2 down from £7-8.

Are you getting the blades that fit the standard hook arms or you bought the pin version from a golf/bora?

 

[Will89lcr]

Well in the last few days I got a custom exhaust and love it to bits haa, pops and bangs

And also fitting new heat shield and air filter

Can hear the dv abit too much for my liking but overall I'm a happy chap

 

[747_727]

Exhaust looks great. I need a new system at some point as mine is very rusty. Where did you get yours?

Tony banks custom exhausts in leeds, highly recommend them

started stripping my wheels but i think the holes between spokes have been powder coated as standard so i might get a furbing company to strip them properly

not a good picture but you can sorta see the difference

Went to my cupra today and she has some water in the spare wheel bit. Will get that sorted when I get my m8s car sorted and pick up the cupra

Fitted my b5 v3 TIP, wow what a difference! Pulls a lot stronger now.. The old TIP must of been on its last legs, it literally fell to pieces around the turbo housing as I was undoing the jubilee clip!

Yeah defiantly for £20 odd i didnt think I'd notice much difference but so much smoother on launch and thru gears no crashing about as before.

Think iv discovered the sause of one of the random sounds my car makes. I could have sworn it was coming from the interior, a frequent sweeping that was doing my head in. Seems my rear wiper blade is the guilty party lol
