  1. Running the risk of sounding daft here (nothing new), but what advantage does this conversion give?
  2. 9/10 Observe And Report Some classic Seth Rogen moments. Loved the part where the news reporter interviews him. Hilarious!
  3. I have a set of these on now, if you pop out the original glass to properly clean it, you can get them to stick on perfectly in place. Madness paying £80!!
  4. Fitted the resistors and LED bulbs to mine mate, It does show up better than the standard bulbs, but is not perfectly orange. It does give the rears a really crisp, ON/OFF flash though, if you follow me. Not tried green bulbs though, although i did buy some green glass paint and a set of brushes so i might have a go. Then again i might not, as my all reds have faded almost back to all orange now... :lol: Gonna try some Laminex on a fresh set i reckon (if I can get hold of a set for a decent price)
  5. At least he won't be able to rip anyone else off, on here at least. Thanks again for following this up Tom.
  6. So thats you and me he has ripped off in the last couple of months, on this forum alone. Good luck with your situation mate, although I have to say I'm not holding my breath for my money. :mad2:
  7. Very nice! Loving the stance. Perfect. (And the best colour too). :luvlove:
  8. It's not a bad idea, to be fair I didn't know there was NO protection offered on a "Gift" payment. Suppose it does make sense though. Lesson learned. The thing that really p1sses me off though, I really don't expevt it to go on on here, ED38 maybe where nobody knows eachother, but its more of a community spirit on here. Just don't expect it to go on.
  9. Thanks Tom. We shall see. I don't think a simple reply is too much to ask. Just been on PayPal, apparently i have no recourse for the transaction as it was a "gift" payment. :(
  10. I've delayed in doing this as I really didn't want to go down this road, but, I think 6 weeks is more than long enough to wait. Bought a set of original rear light clusters off here from jimmyvwjunkie aka Jamie Butler. Paid for on June 5th. I waited patiently initially and accepted the fact that he'd had "a sh1t couple of weeks at work", and that I was happy to wait, as long as the lights finally arrived. So a further 2 weeks later still no sign of them, so I have sent several PM's which have delivered successfully, and looking at the guys profile he's been on here regularly (pretty much every day), so its not a case of him not seeing the PM's. I have repeatedly and politely asked him to let me know whats going on, and that if there's a problem I will happily accept a refund. Still no reply. Now i know it's only £28, but to me it's the principal of the matter. I've been on this site for 4 years now, and don't really expect to be ripped off. A dispute has been opened in PayPal so hopefully i should be able to get my money back. Moral: Don't buy items from jimmyvwjunkie aka Jamie Butler :censored: :nono:
  11. As ever, brilliant skills mate. The custom fabrication that has gone into this is awesome.
  12. Link just takes you to a Yahoo login screen?
  13. Its a very nice motor for sure, not keen on the interior though, would be much nicer in black, plus the fact that it looks like he's wedged a PSP in the instrument console. Apart form that though, very very nice, and as close to the perfect Corrado as you could get I reckon. Plenty of power plus Haldex= :luvlove:
  14. Cracking work mate! 8) I'd love the time/space/knowhow/patience to do all that! :lol:
  15. Hope I all works out for you mate. Keep the faith.
  16. Looks tasty on the comps! Re fitting the new weather seal, are they bonded on or just a push fit? Got this to do on my pass side soon... Cheers. Matt.
  17. Yep, Megs Plast-X is well worth a go, good on the front indicators too.
  18. Tesco Super (all I ever put in my VR), Shell V-Power, and BP Ultimate are all 99ron, never seen anything higher octane over here. In mine the difference is noticeable between 97 and 99, so I should think you'll feel a difference albeit a small one. If I have to put 97ron in due to a lack of 99, that's when I can feel it most, when stepping down a fuel grade. Then again it could all be psychological! :cuckoo:
  19. One for sale on here at the mo mate, unbutchered... viewtopic.php?f=13&t=94014 :D
  20. 110 is definitely too hot, IF it's an accurate reading. My VR reads up to 110 in traffic, but when VAGCOM is connected this turned out to be only 95c, so my dash gauge is way out. Only way to know for sure (I think) is to hook it up to VAGCOM
  21. Loving the oven baked goodness! :lol: IMO you should leave the rubbing strips off, but source some US spec side repeaters, those wings look too good smooth to start putting holes back into them... 8)
  22. NAME & SHAME!! Other members of this forum in your area deserve to know about this place, so you should really let everyone know. Sounds absolutely shocking what they have done mate, I'd speak to your credit card company, they may be able to give you advice at the very least... Good luck!!
