absolutely stunning AL!!!!!
i really wanted to get to this show again this year dammit!!
i too love all the ickle touches that are so nicely thought out.
hows the lupo coming along?
matsu

Glad you like it all Rich, sure you will see me at some of the other shows over the summer.
The lupo is still pretty much standard, looked into some nice coilovers, but saving for a new house, so most our money is going into saving now.

Thanks to Markymark for allowing me to pinch one of his pics:
The lower part above the R32 diffuser was supposed to be silver, but the bodyshop isn't used to such random demands, so didn't realise, only picked it up 10 days ago so thought it would be a bit tight getting it painted up in time.



The tracking is slightly out on the front wheels due to the airride, but going to Midland VW next week, think i'm going to put a bit of camber on the rear wheels and some 5mm spacers.

...Pete, look forward to seeing you at Early Edition.

Certainly should do chief.
What's happening with the other wheels (CH's etc..), will they feature at the summer shows or are they purely for daily journeys?

CH's are sold, bought some monza reps with proper winter tyres instead.
Thinking of going for 19 inch CH's as well.

The Snowflakes are my daily alloys over the summer. :stupid:

May I ask where can I get hold of this?

Custom made, Dan Hartley did it on his white MK5 a while ago.
You have to get a US bumper, or a UK one if you prefer the wider number plate recess, then weld in an R32 diffuser and spray with rough plastic spray.
Glad people like it, should be spraying the top part in the next couple of weeks I think.

Hi mate,
Not a problem, Rear lights are just European Valeo LED lights, available in Germany.
There is a possible group buy running at the moment on these so you may be able to get them cheap. :happy2:

Little bump for a feature that Dunclique and Sam Travis did for me the other week.
First one, and really really pleased with it:
