  1. I've got tiny slits cut into mine so the white shines through but you can't really see it normally so still looks good in daylight.
  2. Lol, the day after the pictures were taken.
  3. I wasn't sure at first but with the sides trimmed off I think it works really well.
  4. Off ebay, bought a supercharged sticker and the cut the letters up and rearranged!
  5. Thanks for the comments! I will be changing to flat caps at some point as I prefer them too but they came with the nut cap unfortunately. Running at the 215-220bhp mark currently. I thought about the standard badge as trimsport do new ones but I fancied something different for a bit.....and it won't get nicked! Looking to do a little tidying up of interior next, steering wheel, gear knob, speaker covers. Connect up the sterio, I've already hidden the wiring away as it was a bit of a mess. Sort out the perished foam under the bonnet and tidy up the rad and fan etc. Then it's onto the engine again, head removed and off to cnc and the supercharger tweaked a bit more.
  6. Thought I would share a few pics of my 60 at its current level of progress.... There's plenty left to do until I will be happy but then.....when are you ever finished when it comes to VW ownership!
  7. I did this job some time ago and put a post on here somewhere with pics etc of the whole job to help anyone in the future.... I did tag/send it to one of the moderators on here but it never seemed to find its way into the how to guide. Anyway if you can't find it let me know and I'll track it down.
  8. That's a pretty good price for age etc, I use Adrian Flux to sort mine and it costs me £183 fully comp. couldn't believe it, that's with all mods listed and a guaranteed value as well. I'm only 32 so not exactly old but once you reach the 30 mark and switch companies the prices seem to drop greatly. Hope he enjoys the G60 as much as I enjoy mine!
  9. No problem, let us know how it goes.
  10. Try a thicker oil first, I used to run 15/50 in my old valver and I currently run 10/60 in my G60. Just make sure oil temp is up before adjusting the right foot! If that doesn't help it may be new followers required. That said I read that having the timing out ever so slightly can cause that tappy noise but only what I read, I've not experienced this.
  11. Not a VR but my G60 is through Adrian Flux and I'm paying £183 with all mods listed and replaced like for like and £5000 GV. I'm 32 so I think that classes as being young still?
  12. What are you going to do with the old 9a 16v lump?
  13. Then I had a polished blank made to cover the wiring center
