I've sent them a message and have yet to get a response. No one wants to respond which sucks :( I found that Turk makes the bolts, but they are based out of India and I can't find any contact info. I'm thinking of trying to see if maybe OZ uses the same style bolts...I might get lucky. I already know BBS doesn't..they were kind enough to reply the same day....

I may have missed it, but does the spoiler lift up at speeds?????? or is it broke lol

I'm in search of the wheel bolts that are used to put the center in. I broke one and lost another in a 1 year period while I was taking my time polishing the lips and getting the centers powder coated. I have no clue what else I can do Oettinger wont reply to emails and the one U.S. carrier won't help at all. Can anybody help a fellow dubber out? Any leads? Anything I can do to get the wheels on the car would be great. They are 18x8, Pics' for clicks, this is what the wheel looks like....well mine look a lot better lol

I would suggest checking your HAL sensor on the distributer. It will pull timing and cause the car to hesitate and sometimes backfire under certain conditions. But it will feel like the car is missing a good amount of power, like something just isn't right. This had happened to me and mine was just unplugged. Yours might be a different situation though as our SLC's in the states only came with 2.8 :(
-
I need some new wheels asap lol......Those look good with that lip. Money is the only problem, I've spent it all. Gotta save some more.
-
Was it the stock bulbs???? That would make life a lot easier. Although I keep thinking about making an LED series and running it at the bottom inside much like the MK5 turn lamps. Also, would anybody by chance have the part number for the french yellow glass things that go in the driving light spot??? Or anyone selling them??????
-
they are going in the driver light spots. I'm using LED's. I've not started on it yet. I'm basically just going to drill from the back and place them in with silicone. If anybody has any thoughts as to what else I should do, please let me know, I'm all ears 8)

We are lucky here in Indiana, no front plate required, although I did order a euro plate, which Im sure sounds funny to you guys lol it say Mon3y_P1t which will go sideways on the front window, or back.

I used an extra g60 bumper and tried about 10 different welding rods until I found one that bonded strong with the style of plastic. Mine is 100% plastic with some glaze, other then that it was just time spent. Like flusted said, it was a pain in the ass at points but the end results are very pleasing. Side note: Flusted, thanks again for the steering wheel. I'm very happy with it

Well not really lol, just some shaving going on. I shaved the front fogs and turn signals out, also since I have a U.S. spec I had to shave the side markers out as well. If it's not raining tomorrow I will have fresh pics of it on the car in a nice little photo shoot. :lol:
-
well shes back on the road. I learned a valueable lesson lol. luckily nothing broke or got damaged. below is a pic of my goofy mistake.
-
I think your right lol. But I only have one car at this time so doing custom work requires me to pull stuff off that still allows me to drive, of course looking at it now, I think this one has limited me
-
Ok, now my next question is, is the frame rails that stick out, are the threaded or what? I couldn't see any thread, but it could be dropped down a bit. I now wish I would have put those bolts back in, but looking back at the thread I used to pull the bumper off it said it wasn't necessary. I'm going to bump it and request a change to that DIY. I just can't see where those bolts thread into other then the bumper support which is not on the car....or at me house, which makes it even harder to tell how its suppose to go back on....this sucks. I wish no one this kind of luck.
-
so I pulled off my front bumper because its getting shaved. I've been driving for about a week, now all of a sudden today my subframe dropped on one side and broke my radiator. my question is, the bolts that hold to bumper, are they support bolts. meaning was I suppose to put those back in. mistakes have obviously been made. I just want to figure out what I was neglagent on. any thoughts tips or ideas????
