I liked the way this was going with all the 'motorsport' parts, but whats the deal with the boot build? Don't get me wrong, it looks good, just seems a little out of place to me.

It's never going to be track orientated I've put big wheels on, lowered it all the way and put heavy brakes on now ... And I like my music to much. I also put all the interior back in incase I needed to take my daughter out when the misses isn't there so it doesn't look so much out of place now.





I didn't take any pics but I found these

Thinking of putting some porsche 4 pots on the rear with a bias valve if needed. Anyone on here done this?


Couple more shameful pics

The car looked incredible at Edition38 Adam. As the title says, it's a built not bought car and your work and attention to detail is awesome. This car ia all about the brakes,wheels and stance. Best Seat there IMO and with the right judge who gets it, it'd get the praise it deserves. In the 20 mins or so that we were chatting, there was a fair few people hovering around the car, and that's saying something considering the badge snobbery that goes on at the mainstream VAG shows!

Top work mate, well done :1st:

Cheers mate that means a lot :redface::thumbup:

I was very pleased with how much attention it got especially considering the money most of the other cars had spent on them.

I decided I needed to make the wheel brace a bit better so 14hrs later and all the anodising is sanded off then 4 stage mirror polished.

Went to the LowCollective show yesterday, won best wheels against some tuff competition and also managed to get in the top 15 cars of the show, very happy with that.
