What did you do to your Mk5 today?

I have a strong suspicion that it will require re-doing in the not too distant future, but I am happy enough for now. The main reason is I cheated and did not install the runner underneath as I had no patience, not a A1 job and I am not proud of that, but It all got too much. I did buy some OEM clips that are under the car to secure them and it is quite rigid currently.

The gloss is the plastic rejuvenator stuff, definitely makes it less grey than it was before.

Got a stage 2 done on the R's today. Here's mine, sorry about the crappy phone pics:

Went through the touch-free carwash at BP.

$11 I'll never get back. Don't know what I expected though.

Had Mikinoz adjust my DG short shifter.

A lot less nothy now with the side to side setup properly. Tons smoother into 2nd and 3rd.

Thanks Mick!

No sweat. You still have my adjustment 'tool' I think - can you post it back?

I got some AWE Tuning aluminium pedals off Lucas and fitted them on the weekend.

After removing the stock pedals, I was surprised at how **** they actually are LOL. Don't even think they are real aluminium as they are marketed to be. The brake pedal just pulls off and is held onto the lever via from rubber nubs that slot into some holes. Accelerator is a bit of a tricky one and requires patience.

The new pedals are much grippier and after driving today after walking in the rain, i could definately notice the increased grip. I also think they look a heap nicer than the standard R pedals.

So far they are only temporarily mounted via some super strength double sided tape as I didnt want to drill into anything.
