rsweeney 40 Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 richievr when removing the plastic arches did you get it re sprayed or does it clean up ok ? Link to post Share on other sites
richievr 1 Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 it did clean up ok, but i couldn't hack the scratches left underneath where the arches used to be so i had the wings and rear panels painted. varies from car to car to be honest..cornish - you may get away with it, take em off and have a look. see what they are like underneath. if they are bad, put them back on.. if they are ok leave em off.. ?

cornishvr6 52 Posted February 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2011 Well last week i met up with George (geo7087) for a quick chat and to collect the ITG foam air filter i purchased from him, its similar to the pipercross filter i was running but i think it looks a bit better in the bay and also performs much better than the pipercross,Also got a few other parts fitted today, The polished upper strut brace, forge polished pas cap, polished strut top covers and the alloy header tank, Not all the parts are new but are in good condition and will give them all a good clean in time, Just need to hide the wires away around the struts in some black flexi conduct next which will make them a bit easier on the eye i hope. and finish the mk4 battery box which now fits in place i just need to extend one of the negative leads so it reaches into the new box.

cornishvr6 52 Posted February 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 Well last weekend myself and lottie took the trip up to Gloucester to meet fellow members and good friends Sal and Martin, Not just a social visit but the vr needed some special TLC, Im pleased to say Tony did the mileage and all the top work rather than sending it to a local vw specialist and what a very good job he did, Recon head, valve stem oil seals, gasket set, New plugs, Thermostat housing (cheers martin for the spare part on hand) Dubpower low temp thermostat, fresh oil, Oh and had some shiny parts fitted at the same time, Happy with the results after a little cleaning Link to post Share on other sites
