Wow, top job

Cheers, that 3M kit really could not make it any simpler!

If I didn't balls it up anyone could do it!

New front splitter on. Front end is coming along nicely now. http://i349.photobucket.com/albums/q387/thomasw658/20161215_145450_zpscbrbhvwr.jpg?t=1481745063

Looks good. What did you use and how long did it take?

Did you use just the one kit for both lights?

Cracked open the wiper bay under the scuttle panel to get at the CanBus and I find the K variant (1ko907530k) which is a pain in the arse for upgrades as although I can source the updated version, I have no vagcom and the local dealer had no clue what I was talking about when looking for a quote to code it.

That's something that any VAG enthusiast with a Vag-com cable can easily do or a VAG specialist mechanic, maybe. Check the topic of the Vag-com locator to see if anyone near you can help.

Popped to AKS to have VWR dampers fitted 

How are you finding them so far? What Springs are you using?

Thanks

Cheers for that I can never get posting pictures right, I'll double check on their website but I haven't seen that one. I've got loads of pics but I don't want to spam this thread with them  PM me your email adress and I'll send some over and the link for it if your interested.

Nah just put some in the relevant pics thread bud, just like to see different angles of the splitter and what it is from?

Also just did my cam follower with the dreaded banjo bolt and wasn't too bad, managed to get in with a 3/8 drive triple square fixed socket and a knuckle joint adapter thingy but I found a ten mm ratchet spanner and that fit over the actual m8 triple square bit so tightened it up with that.

One thing I did notice is that you need to push the banjo bit up when trying to get the bolt in, I believe this is perhaps how people cross thread them occasionally.

The cam follower wasn't in terrible condition but it was up for replacement, so glad I've changed it now and the car seems better  but that's probably just in my head, there was a bit of creamy gunk in the pcv, is that something I should worry about ?

I'll post pics of the follower later.

Might fit my Forge TwinTake tomorrow if I can be arsed.

Thanks to everyone for their help and info

Yeah it is the same one that's on awesome. Better price if you buy from these guys http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/320979341746?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Here's my cam follower, 70k on the clock.

70k that looks like 100k
