Yeah the standard stuff is defo lacking once you put things like these in!

I'm running mine through a rns510 with no amp and it seems fine, haven't really turned it up since I only have the drivers side finished so far. You do need to buy an autoleads adapter for the woofer for the fronts and that comes with a wiring adapter that's needed! Apart from that I just used normal speaker wire to fit everything else in  :happy2:

On another note I got my autobrite snow foam lance today so gonna give that a go later on today!  :party:

Got a delivery yesterday, mmmmm carbon!



Nice little touch for the front! Nice and quick to fit and 10 times better looking than the black one  :smiley:

Also picked up some stickers from japfest2 so thought I'd try em on and see if I liked them? Only on the back wheels mind.....let's see if they stay



Waiting on some blue samco coolant hoses now so the next update will be and engine bay one I imagine! :happy2:

Very nice, can I ask where you got badge from? Is it replacement all in carbon or just the front?

Thanks

Little update. Got some forge coolant hoses off a member to match my DV pipe i already had and had a few hours spare yesterday so thought I'd fire them on.



Pretty easy job to do and brightens the bay up loads! Now working on painting my chopped engine cover, had it sat around for ages since I took it off at Statllers for the cam follower to be changed! Hopefully I'll have it finished and on fro VW Festival @ Harewood this weekend!

Car looks great mate! Looking at your thread isnt good for my wallet! Overall, was it worth upgrading the speakers? Thinking of doing mine soon.
