Ben Seabrook 4 Posted November 2, 2007 Report Share Posted November 2, 2007 I like it but personally I would have done it the same colour as the car. Link to post Share on other sites
vr6madmike 0 Posted November 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2007 Yeah I had thought about that but then everyone does that and I cudnt be bothered to go to vw for the paint! Link to post Share on other sites
Ben Seabrook 4 Posted November 2, 2007 Report Share Posted November 2, 2007 Lazy git lol I suppose if you got some red samcos would look really smart Link to post Share on other sites
vr6madmike 0 Posted November 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2007 Yeah thats me! I was thinking the samco idea and also its too make up for being too tight to fork out on red leads! Im still not decided on the colour, got a spare blank one still so it might go back on, Link to post Share on other sites
Ben Seabrook 4 Posted November 2, 2007 Report Share Posted November 2, 2007 With the polished manifold - red cover leads and samcos would look sick mate (h) Colour coordinated engine bays are a sign of true dedication Link to post Share on other sites
