Only a bit for now.  When my magnets arrive its velcro off and wrap the section behind the number plate gloss black too  :party:




Couldnt wait for the magnets to come so had the rest wrapped today, not 100 happy with it though looks a different black  :fighting:
The bottom lip is glossy black matching my Roof / pillars / wing mirrors, the new vinyl doesnt look as shiny :(

This morning I will mostly be reading Cam Follower tutorials (and looking at StevePs project  :evilgrin:).  Had no bother last time but reading MJRs nightmare with stripped threads and needing a new HPFP I need to be extra careful as Im due to drive to UK!

Try and get the alloys changed over back to Pescaras. If the weather was decent, I'd strip the Monzas' protection down and reseal them up before storage.

Took half hour found some possible cause for concern  :sad1: http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,32327.msg398863.html#msg398863

After 15k miles or thereabouts...

Fitted my new plates on the car using autohaus plate surrounds  :wink: rear one was a piece of cake but front was more tricky, had to remove standard plate mount and lost some of the plastic push thru screw bits in the grill  :signLOL: ended up removing the grill which i should've done in the first place  :stupid: tipping it down outside now so no chance of some pics  :sad1:
