So a few things happening today, picked up new pcv for my car after vw gave me a revision p valve last week which made the car run badly so has been changed for the revision r. I have just fitted it and my engine starts a lot more smoothly and idles better than ever, not had chance to take it for a run yet though.

I've also made a start on smoothing my grill ready for it to be wrapped tomorrow. Still not sure if to have gloss black or carbon





Sanded ready for filler

All depends on what you prefer, I like the look of the carbon with the colour of the car. But its all to do with personal preference  :evilgrin:

Black for me as well. :happy2:

I had mine wrapped in carbon fibre when I bought it but I took it off. Looks miles better as standard, IMHO.

Yeah I think I will go with gloss black. Carbon wrap is a matte finish so won't look as good

Just got back from having my grill wrapped and just fitted the 3/4 German font plate. Tomorrow I need to get it up in the air to find the irritating knocking noise coming from the front and rear at low speeds over bump surfaces. Hopefully it something like drop links

Cars booked in Tuesday for the wheels to be refurbed got until then to make my mind up on colour, at the minute I'm pretty set on anthracite/gun metal grey
