 :notworthy: :notworthy:very very nice Carlos..been looking at these brakes for mine but wasn;t sure about them fitting behind the ck,s
Also been thinking about getting a price on getting my car wrapped like yours but was wondering if you just wash them normal or is there a special way in doing it

Hi Andy,

Cheers mate, I'll let you know how they fit behind the CKs  :happy2:

As for the wrap, pm me if you want it doing around springtime next year  :laugh:

Just wash as normal, and use common sense. As long as you are aware that it's a wrap and not paint its easy to wash.
Jet wash, 2bucket method, sno-foam are all fine but for obvious reasons don't use a machine polisher on Satin/Matt finishes :wink:
(You can polish gloss vinyl with the right pads/compounds)

I will get round to posting up some pics of when I wrapped mine.

Monte, so nice to see another siver Eddy. I like yours so much I may "borrow" some of your styling ideas.
I've often thought that the silver didnt look as good as the other colours, but you have changed my mind. Well done sir.  :congrats:

Yes the CK's mate, Well we get away with it on mine because I run daveb disks and brackets which move everything 12mm inboard, I get about 6mm clearance, so by my reckoning a 10mm spacer would give you 4mm. We have tried the CK's on another lads S3 with the ttrs discs and they wouldn't fit. Have a look on vagoc mate there is quite a lengthy thread on there about what fits and what doesn't

Well today I sprayed my Track wheels. (Well I made a start)  :innocent:

I decided to give Plastidip a try after I'd used it on various badges. The process is very very easy. A good clean and a wipe down with IPA is all the prep needed before spraying. No sanding needed. :notworthy:
I'll be finishing the rest tomorrow and then on Wednesday I hope to get them on the car for some photos  :smiley:

I'm really impressed with the results so far.  :drool:
