DANS CANDY WHITE 3DR GTI DSG

[DamoP]

Just had cambelt and water pump done so decided give the bay a clean  as it was filthy !

Before



After

what did you use? need to do mine

[Salt_258]

Not very technical I'm afraid but basically bilberry wheel cleaner to agitate dirt then wiped / washed off with old microfibre I then just sprayed my tyre dressing all over and again microfibre to dry

Easy peasy

How you liking the mk5 mate? We'll have to have a local mini meet sometime.

I'm in love fitted something tonight will get pics in daylight :)

Bye bye rcd300

Yes would be up for that mate

New grille and mini number plate next for me

[Salt_258]

One thing that was letting the car down was the RCD300 the worst stereo ever

so enough was enough

Kenwood DNX520VBT







overall im very impressed so far just brought a cruzer fit 32gb usb stick to hide in the front

who's wrapped there front grille?

Nice work mate, did the kenwood come with the surround etc? I like how it keeps the oem look.

Original surround fits perfect only ... Everything I needed for a stereo does everything I need ... And got a "fairly" good price off the bay :)

Trying to save money but I can't help myself I keep finding things ahhhh

I'm exactly the same you should see my ebay watch list!! I've just had a fairly good pay rise and my first thoughts were CAR PARTS! But I need to hold back for a while after a few things I fancy.

Any opinions ? Good bad thanks

[Salt_258]

So I brought a 3" downpipe off ebay it comes with a reducer to 61 mm

Great only thing is my car has a aftermarket cat back ... I have measured it and it's 72mm ...... There is already a 61 to 72 reducer on the car now ...

I need to cut the reducer of the the down pipe and fit a 76mm to 72 mm

Any ideas please help

search on ebay , there's a guy who makes reducers to your specification.
I had one made excellent product and a good price.Can look who I used if needed.
