    Got a new front right wheel today, so now both fronts are new, and that install came with a wheel allignment, so it drives straight now and there's no tug to the left

    Small oil droplets still coming down maybe one a day under the engine, maybe it's from the oil stick tube being cracked at the top, when I drive over bumps it might be spilling. I'll investigate.

    Now not sure where to go from here, what to buy, etc. Haven't got rudd's 900 yet, but that'll probably go towards the coilovers..

    I emailed GAP on postage price for some parts.

    Front lower spoiler, left side. 36.00
    Front lower spoiler, right side. 36.00
    Antenna, fender mount. 21.45
    Upper timing belt cover, outer 12.36
    Dipstick funnel 1.66

    Then postage is $50 normal and $59 express post. American dollars.

    Comes to AU$220. Is that reasonable, or is there a local site/place that sells this stuff?

    German Auto Parts. They've got a lot of the little things that may have broken or whatnot and can't be had locally.

    http://www.germanautoparts.com/

    I ordered the stuff last night, but not the front lip, mine is alright for now.

    Got some VW cap stickers off ebay, $12 to my door, they look alright.



    And to kill off the 4x4, I ordered some coilovers today! Not sure how long they'll take to get here, but I look forward to having a go at getting them on.

    oh true, yea I'll do that as well. What colour you reckon? Everyone does red, but because it's a gti I guess that's allowed.

    Blue on my friends polo looks really good, then black the safe option lol

    I'll get some degreaser under the arches as well.

    Also get under there witha scrubber to help it.

    I'd go with Black looks classy and good.
