lol, bro I can't wait to get these steelies on and stance up the hecti
But in seriousness, the over the weekend I took a break from what I was doing and looked at the hecti parked behind the vr and I was like, wtf am I doing! it's a fkn festiva! and it looks no where near as nice as the golf So i'm pulling my finger out now, after these rims go on that's IT and everything is going towards the golf from here on out, no fkn around, no new clothes, shoes, drinking in da clubz, eating out and definately no chicks! Gunna be hard but a mans gotta do what a mans gotta do, ya heard! gotta get this puppy on zee road bitches
Here's another updater:
I decided to do something with the front bumper to 1. allow more air to the radiator, and 2. to hopefully look a little more agro and cut away from the shaving and smoothing that all the other dubs are doing; So I came up with this . . . (going to say kinda pissed cuz I just had a look at the vento coupe thread and they had done EXACTLY this, so my apologies if you think I ripped your idea but I didn't (FEK!))
From...
To...
Still got to work on it but you get the idea.
and whilst picking through my junk I picked up my dash and immediatley wondered why the fuk a gutted dash can still weigh so much?!
So I peeled the vinyl off and found almost an inch thick of dense foam covering the whole dash surely 5mm would have been sufficient?
So out with the wire wheel!
After making a massive foam mess in the garage...
I got this! which weighs SO much less (so says my hand scales) and it now actually weighs like a gutted dash so am happy with it now. Note the gaps between the dash and panels now O_o
Also had a chat with my mate and i'll be dropping off all the engine accessories and nuts n bolts I have to him, he'll then get the engine and fit it all up and then I tow the golfie to him to drop it in then have an exhaust fab'd up and then the wireing and computer sorted! Holly **** huh! soon we'll be turning the key
wohoooooo Nearly there
