What did you and your MKV do today?

[Phathead]

must ask, what happened to your headlights?

I'm not sure what you mean?

Zaino have some great products out. They seem to work Amazingly well on the Red paint.  


Its hard to see on photos, but its awesome on Silver too

... Looking sweet to Carlo  ... sure does give a good result, unsure of the life on the car it protects though??

Today I used the 3m headlight restoration kit to make my headlights clear again!! Have to say it's the first time i've sanded any part of a car and after the first few passes was a bit worried i'd ruined them, but after about 30 mins on each side I am very happy with the results, and well worth the £10 for the kit!!

Glad you got results too. Great bargain that

they aren't the originals for a GTi that's all.  ... Didn't know if you changed them or bought them yourself fella

I had previously played with the rear lights to get the rear afterburner look. Wiring the rear inner lights up through the tailgate with the wiring for the rear wiper motor and back down to the rear light. Using the BMW 21w bulbs that most their new 3-Series use mean a night consistent glow throughout the rear light units. Sorry about the poor quality of this photo....done on my phone with the light getting dark. But you get the point.....!

Rear afterburner lights

Looks good, how many bulbs? The one closest in the picture looks quite obvious where the bulbs are but i bet looks better in real life? Hard to do?

Yeah second that ? Was it hard to do ? wanting mine done

Just put a small GTI Fast Decal on my tax disc holder... It's the little touches  

Nice! I've got the same tax disc holder. Hmm, now would it be rude to steal that idea?  

ha-ha... I think It'd be rude not to! Looks pretty cool! I was pondering as to where to put it, then I had a light bulb moment...lol. My Fast is now with me  

Might just do that then! Maybe in red though, just to be a little different 
Did you get yours from VC stickers on eBay? I can only see a 4" by 4" one there and I think that must be bigger than yours.

Changed my Cam Follower today. Was in really good condition so I'm happy.



Also fitted some new O/S Wingmirror glass as mine had stopped heating up.

Productive day for me.
