Chewy`s Progress

Holy molly! They're well expensive. I guess you get what u pay for.....
Probably will have to resort to the cheaper ones like KW, Weitec...etc

KW's arent cheaper, they are more expensive than the eibachs.
But KW are an awesome bit of kit.

Just a little update

Got a set of genuine GT rear lights, de wipered the rear and also got a votex rear spoilers fitted





So this is how its sitting at the minute



I am taking the rear adjusters out on Tuesday and fitting a set of 8mm spacers on the back so should look alot better

Also got a couple of little things to do then that's me finished with it,unless I can find the wheels I am after

Should be up for sale next year if anyone is interested

Looks good mate! adjustors out and spacers will set the stance off nicely.

[seanybean16]

Will you be selling the tt comps if you get the alloys your after? I'm wanting some and yours look very nice in silver (don't like them highly polished!) If you are selling pm me. Thanks!

Gave the car a clean today so went out and took a couple of pics.

Got the two standard mods done.

Cubby Box


TT Pedals






Am happy with the height and how the wheels turned out




av got some 10mm spacers to go on the back but don’t really think I need them



You can’t beat a Mr T air freshener



Comments welcome

Just been reading through this post,

I'm lovin the cubby box mod - where do you get the covers from?

[chewy]

You can get them from the dealer and they also pop up on ebay now and again

I will get the part number for you over the weekend

[chewy]

Finally took the adjuster out the back, thought It was only 10mm but was more like 20mm

How its sitting now





I also put the 8mm spacers on I have had for months but we had a problem, the rear axle in not central and the tyre was rubbing constantly on the n/s rear arch

Never got a pic with them on but this is what its like without



Anyone got any idea why the axle might be further to the n/s? Could it be the bushes?

[Veedub9n]

Everyones does it.

Need great plates to sort it out.

I prefer it when the wheel sits slightly forward. Its more noticable the lower you go and if your on bigger wheels.

[chewy]

What I mean is the axle is sitting to one side.

On the n/s the wheels sits flush with the arch, but on the o/s I have about 10mm of tuck

[pip_polo]

mine did on my polo when i had it. naff build quality

Spacer on the o/s ftw lol

A couple of little updates

Fitted a double Din Headunit



Also changed the Comps for a set of Porsche Twists




7.5j ET33 on the front and 9j ET27 on the back

[K.I.T.T.]

I was hoping to see another update if you get my drift

How hard is to fit the shark-fin aerial? Just undo the bolt underneath the headlining and take it from there? Is it fiddly to undo the bolt once you drop the headlining from the C-pillar? Think this will be my next mod. Listen to the iPod most of the time, so not really bothered about reception.

Edit: What rear spoiler is that? Votex or GTi?
