    i see, lucky you lol
  2. nice mk2 Dox!! love the eybrow which accommodates the twin headlights too :D
  3. nice, was it a big bumper mk2? i do love the valver in its whiteness :D am toying with putting the Kamei front splitter on that is in the loft but id love to put the full kit on the VR really, however i dont know if it will have fitment issues as the kit is based on early dimensions

    it likely is wishful thinking but Anna has already said she will approach the subject again with her boss. the part i wrote about the 100 number needed was said by Anna so lets hope she can convince the boss to look at it
  9. balls - i came to work in the valver today & totally forgot i was going to post VR height pics, grrr

    it is a ****e shate isnt it! 400 euro a side is just taking the michael from classic parts but then with import duty on some CF ones from spoonfed, & the gamble of them arriving from the US perfect, even CF are hugely expensive plus it is a joke really when, for example, you can buy an entire lower door repair panel for a T25 van for about £25 im am hoping big time that AnnaVR6 can talk her boss around into reproducing them - most people want/need both sides so her boss's 'we would need to make a 1000 of them to be worthwhile' is not out of question if that was 500 per side & the price was good i am hoping the body guy i am soon going to see for the VR can work some magic with my current ones or else it might be rat rado time
  11. thats what i was trying to figure who's stash is that & how they hell did they collect so many recaro's!!?? (and are any for sale lol)

    good luck - few & far between from my hunting
  13. i like the RDO plate - ive often thought of that myself always wanted F45TAS lol
  14. ha ha ok Dox i will take some & post them tomorrow again, i like your suggestion but the V1's are already a bit stiff on our crap UK roads (put the VR on a proper smooth tarmac & they are awesome though) & the addition of a bump stop would reduce travel even further i guess im being picky as i doubt a 10mm raise would really be that noticable lol
  15. ha ha ha camber for VW's in my eyes is for rear wheels only & on vans or bugs my bridgestone RE002's run lovley on the VR & i wouldnt want to get some nasty uneven wear
  16. yes that is an option but not really one i want to take TBH it is me being a bit lazy - the VR has KW coilovers so raising it up is no issue other than the hassle of cleaning the upper threads so the screw thing will wind ok the front height just looks so nice with the wheels pushed out a tad
  17. thanks Dox it is a tough one to get a pic in which you can make the perspective out but this one may give an idea as for leveraging the arches.....errr i dont think the lips would take it as they are a tad flakey lol
  18. no they rub about 1&1/2 inches from the inner edge of the wing but the tire is not catching any of the metal edge of the wing
  19. ha ha ha sizeable reduction! coast on all decent downhills to recoup a little of that heavy right footedness, thats what i do lol
  20. mmmmm BMC they sound soooo good as the rev's build :D very right foot addicatable though lol
  21. howdy Mic worn through!! blimey, do your rub badly? no ive not raised it yet - keep putting it off as i bet my KW's are caked in crap despite the clean a while ago &, probably as per yourself, i really like the way it looks now lol the scuffing on the tires doesnt look too bad but it is making me use the new 4 pots with some heavy braking to avoid going over bigger bumps too quickly - which isnt a bad thing apart from for fuel as i get to hear the BMC & exhaust sing as i get her back up to speed :D the HiSpec's keep growing on me too, i figured this morning that i need to hold on much more tightly when hitting the brake hard now lol
  22. matrix guides are flying out on fb today - much like the dash's will be lol
  23. looks like the 10mm spacers needed for the 4 pots has produced a slight rub on the outer tire wall & i can see a little rub on the arch liner doesnt look too bad & cant be hitting the crusty wing edges as they are still there lol think i will raise the KW's up 10mm at the front, not that i want to as it looks lovely at the current height but the new stopping power is well worth it if i do the valver sailed through her MOT with no advisories last friday too - just needed the new part worn's i put on the front & then a track rod end rubber on the passenger side - good girl!! :D
  24. that is correct, LWS are no longer only option for CF wings i could find was Spoonfed but though their price is good, $600 for a pair, with freight forwarding & import duty they sky rocket
  25. good on you anna we really do appreciate the work you do to help bring us part we all need!!
