As nifty as they are they working end should be slightly curved.  Im sure mine was a Jubilee and we used a flexi shaft 1/4 drive, but Id had several intakes previously...


Anyhow, how evil would my car look wrapped in mat black...  :evilgrin:

We did on yours but you had the dbilias before with a jubilee.  Much easier to usethe spring clips with that tool

It will look dangerous but not now everyone knows you with the red cupra :/ you would lose your special touch. Plus I am going matt black roof and mirrors and lip so mine can stand out a little

Until seeing that pic I quite liked the idea of matt black, but that pic looks rubbish imo.  Mikes looks better.

I might of  found your answer to a flat bottom steering wheel. Looks like you can use your original airbag.
