Adam's Bocanegra UPDATE 23/07/13 Damaged Bumper Resolution and 2nd Service

[ayacoub92]

not much been happening within the last week.

enjoyed the meet on sunday night, shame we had to get moved by the nazi security guards.

roof was meant to be getting wrapped gloss black on monday, but one of the wrappers is ill and had to reschedule it to friday, so hopefully getting done then.

yellow tint film arrived FINALLY from china today. going to do the fogs tomorrow morning if i can be arced.

had a scare last night, thought it would be a good decision to go for a drive on some country roads in the snow. lost control at about 15mph and bumped into the banking at the side of the road. luckily there was no damage at all, but the car came off really really dirty:

oh, and cheers to Lawrie for fitting my Forge spacer at the meet, loving the sound of it!

"Doesn't take ten of you to get the car fixed" jobsworths!!! car looks really good mate never got a chance to hear the dump once the spacer had been fitted though

haha aye couldn't have picked a colder night! not too sure yet, thinking about getting either a set of decent springs or a set of shite coil overs on payday. needs lowered desperately. there's a lot i want to do to it, it's just finding the money to do it all haha.

hopefully be getting a milltek catback or a custom exhaust in the not too distant future, but i also want to do the brake upgrade, looking at lawries on sunday night made me very jealous haha.

 

[ayacoub92]

oh aye and the side skirts and spoiler at some point...

 

[Jaybeattie]

His cars flawless haha hard choice between coilovers or exhaust, personally would go down the exhaust route first then lows after save for a decent set of coilovers , I'm getting my fr decated on Friday at ecotune in hillington

[ayacoub92]

nicest boc i've seen!

thats what i was thinking, milltek will set me back £530 or I can get a custom one made up for £450, but for the sake of 80 quid i think i'd rather play it safe and go for the milltek.

oh, going for that owl/pigeon sound are we haha? i nearly bought an fr tdi before i bought my mk4 fr 1.8t, wish i had, the diesels are much better

 

[Jaybeattie]

Being a relatively new car I'd play it safe and go milltek too since they've been proven to work, haha sure am noise up the neighbours a bit .
I was looking for the petrol to start with but insurance was mega expensive so got the diesel and 276 fully comp can't complain

Looking to replace them all. Does anyone know a seller than sells them as one package?

 

[ayacoub92]

i doubt you will get them all in one package. doesn't cost much to change them all out though, mines came to just over 20 quid.

 

[Baxterlad]

Did you get them from the same supplier? If so, who? Thanks

 

[ayacoub92]

no, they're all from ebay, here are all the links:
