picked them up last night, they're kerbed to buggery, so i don't know whether to attempt to buff them up before paint, or just spray them and rock it during winter

Quick update, managed to replace the foglight finally, it looks weird now having one used fog and a crisp, shiny new one!
still yet to be fitted is the new gearknob, the old one appears to have been superglued in place, so i'll probably have to saw it off, unless anyone knows of a decent dissolving solution i can use to destroy the glue? Got some paints as well to colour code the bumpers, and i'm still waiting for a decent day to get started on the alloys... |

Cheers mike, i'll look into that.
Started sanding down the alloys, which has gotten rid of some kerb damage. Sanded the insides as well but i need to melt the glue holding the old wheel weights down so i can deep clean and paint. Rear light is fully fixed down now, so no more rattling from there thank christ (IMG:style_emoticons/default/xd.gif) Centre pipe rattle has re-emerged, so i need to get some plumbing heatshield for that >.< The baffle in the back box has come loose, so rattles while the engine is idling at cold, might need to replace that. (GTI Backbox anyone?) Boot popper STILL needs to be re-wired, but the whole steering column shroud needs to come off for that i believe... I may put in my old head unit purely for the extra features it has, but i need to cut and re-wire the power cable to the amp for that which is a ballache The boot build is getting an overhaul, with the amp being put under the false floor as opposed to the back of the seat, and a hinged lid on the false floor to use as a toolbox to keep general repair tools Also need to re-route the air filter as its just sucking in warm air from the block atm, so I need to get some piping for it towards the front of the car Phew. |

Won't your amp run way too hot under the false floor? And what kind of subwoofer/amplifier setup are you intending to run?

they advised me to not hide the amps, atleast not with cooling. indeed.
could work, if you make airvent on the side, or keep the top open... |
