New MK3 Dubber!

[Mrk_Mickey]

Lorenz mate did you say you were re-trimming your centre inserts on your doors? Are they the bits that are level with the door handles? If they are, show me how to do it because I want to make mine white to match my exterior

[Lorenz]

Yeah I will be Mickey mate, once I get some time off again Ill get stuck into them.

Now I need a spare stock seat rail to modify to fit this baby. Only going in for track use and the occassional hills thrash (which is pretty damn often!)

[Golf Houso]

Very nice seats... and more importantly

I HAVE THE EXACT SAME SOFA'S AT HOME!!!

weird... I'm getting a pair of spacers and a rally pedal set from TM tuning, want anything Lorenz... ? postage in Aus is cheap as anyway

Also... is that your headliner fabric in the background(Urban Camo)? If so, excellent choice again!

You got to be kidding me, fire proof interior? Its got more to do about how the ember of a cigarette butt is not strong enough to ignite most things let alone fabric. A cigarette butt will not ignite petrol fumes even tho its temperature is above the ignition point of petrol!

Don't laugh but one time I had ciggy ash flying back in my car, landed on my seat and burnt a little hole. I smelt smoke ... AGAIN... (you know what I mean) houso has a point tho.


Nice BABY Loernz.. They look comfy too.

Haha, free sofa's FTW!! Matching recliners aswell all for nothing

Yeah ive got a few things id like from TM Tuning, when you sending off the order?

I wish that was my new headliner lol, but alas its just a spare dooner/duvet (depending where you come from!!)

[Golf Houso]

Ah no worries. I just made the enquiry to see how much postage was and asked a few questions about the pedal set. I was going to go to the bank on Monday to make a deposit and probably make the order on Tuesday but I can wait a few days. If you want something I'll just ask them again and get them to calculate postage and get the total. Then I'll just order it, shouldn't take more than 10 days to post either.

seriously these smilies are whack...

[Lorenz]

If you can wait till Thursday when I get paid ill order some stuff with you mate, unless you pay for it on Monday and ill send through the money on Thursday?

Ill send you a PM with the stuff Im after asap mate. Oh btw, do you have MSN?

[Golf Houso]

Yeah that should be fine... you have pm

[Lorenz]

Ok so I went to put the new lower door trim on today, all came off ok, bolted up nicely, looked wiked until I clipped it all back together.... The wiring for the power windows got caught on something and the plastic coating on a few of the wires came off, resulting in some bare wire contact and alot of fricken smoke, plastic melting and me coughing my guts up! NOT HAPPY JAN I have tried to pull the wiring apart and seperating it to be safe, but its now too dark and appears to be a real pain in teh bum, so ill just sit here with my beer till tomorrow!

On a better note, went on a cruise today with the Adelaide VWW guys, great fun, car loves to be thrashed all the time and still goes really well for what it is! Few pics I took when we returned to Robins broken down, overheating MK1:





New brakes, pads, plugs, leads etc etc will be here this week yay! In dire need of some new brakes now

[Lorenz]

Big thanks to Robin again, I now have wheels
Need to get some new tread on them first, but we test fitted them before and they actually look really good. Could do with some spacers to get them out to the guards, but sit really well, just needs more slammage!
Wasnt looking at getting 17s really, but when these came up and for the price, I couldnt say no
