Thanks Mackie, it does help  :drinking:

Just one more dumb question: What do I ask for? Silicone glue? Any recommended brand?

Cheers for the comments boys. Silicone is the way forward!! :signLOL:

Yes i have a standard Oettinger map on it, along with the usual Milltek zorst upgrade, etc. I've listed most of my mods on members intro page ("hello folks" thread), but still have a few up my sleeve. You boys just keep planting ideas in my head :laugh:

True VeryCherry...sure we could all be up to worse!! (Thats what i tell the missus anyway :laugh:)
Thanks for the feedback. I thought long and hard before putting the Reiger front lip on but i'm glad i did as i think it makes the car that little bit more aggressive looking. :evilgrin:

Car looks fantastic Mackie  :happy2:

I love the R8 accessories too, got the oil cap and coolant cap on my golf. Like what you've done with the engine cover, had a good look at it at Edition and think it looks well smart.
