how to change cat back/back box on gttdi for a gti one (for twin tailpipe looks)
B3n:
Yeah stick to the GTI valance and get a bodyshop to do it should cast you around £100 smoothed and sprayed which is still £200 cheaper than the ED30 part.
Ideally you need the GTi liners as the gti bumper is a little wider at the bottom so you will have about 1cm gap at the very bottom. I didnt bother changing mine but if you are fussy i belive the gti liners are around £20 each.

I've (and my bf) just spent the best part of today trying to smooth the bumper down, still not as smooth as I'd like yet but getting there!
I think I'll prob whack the bumper on and see what it's like before deciding on the arch liners...
Ben, don't suppose you got any pics of yours just so i can get an idea of how it'll look?
B3n:
Good luck smoothing it all down its not as easy as sanding your nails isit :signLOL:
Ill get some pics taken tomorrow i was going to get some for you today but i left my camera lead in my house so ill take some in the morning for you.

Mandy:
Well it's slightly harder than i first imagined (nothing like filing nails!) but i'm sure it'll be ok in the end :confused:
If all else fails then I'll take it down the garage for them to finish it off before they spray it.
I thought about takin some before n after pics of the car but the weather is poo at the mo.
Look forward to seeing your pics!
B3n:
Before and after pics are a must just get your coat on and get out and take some.
Here are the pics of the arch liners on my car excuse the pics a pro i am not :wink:
And here are 2 of the exhaust connection
