Gear knob looks rude dude nice do mine pls  :wink:

Cheers mate drop me a pm if you want one doing mate i'd need to grab prices on the Audi parts but i don't mind doing you one or anyone in fact.

Yep the G/knob and surround look good :happy2:

Quality workmanship again  :happy2:

Cheers mate  :happy2:

Boot trim looks the shiz  :happy2:

I am not to sure on the shifter install, just doesn't look right to my eye. It reminds me of something and i cant think what.  :party:

Cheers mate, I know what your saying i'm not sure if it'd look better with a stock knob (black) or a different coloured vinal at the base (lighter colour to match surrounding plastic) i'm goin to rock it for a few weeks and see how it evolves.

finally my down pipe is fitted, what a ball ache i hate some exhaust places they just look and talk to you like your a peice of sh*t does my nut in.

ended up fitting it myself with a freind after i was told "nah mate we can't do it you need to take the engine out" i've never heard so much bollocks in my life surely you couldn't take an engine out the car anway without disconnecting the exhaust.

This has been the hardest part of the build so far ha ha.

I' stop ranting now.

But daaaammmmm does it already feel alot more lighter on the accelerator and pulls alot better. the sound is pretty damm cool aswel. I can't wait to have the pump fitted and the remap. It's goung to be so much fun.

I'd like a big thanks to
Ed30 matt on here for sorting out the downpipe and all the random stressed phonecalls while some exhaust guy feeding me sh*te.

And my mate mark for the help of fitting it all.
