    rs bumper

    hello i got a rs bumper what a havent fitted yet its just the shell with no bolts and NO mouldings fitted inside IS THIS NORMAL?? am i going to have to stick the fitting bits on?? also is it a good idea to fit other bumper on like the rs one as ive been told the bumper holds the front together and shouldnt be driven without?

    1black plug

    hi about a month ago my ecu last its memory n the car couldnt idle (as some already know!! cheers) got the car tuned by a muppet who told me engine was mash up?? turned out he left ht lead 5 off.... anyway i took all the spark plugs off n they all seemed matt black... so i cleaned them all while waiting for my new plugs to come.. just changed all the plugs today and PLUG 1,2,3,4,5 ALL are what i think in good condition dry light black/grey with a bit of rusty brown colour... but spark plug number 6 is dry matt black all over n smells strong of fuel whats this mean??
  9. o maybe im wrong i thought vat can be charged from the eu, i know they dont charge the customs of 8% and then ontop the vat as they do from outside the eu but i thought they did charge VAT.. if that is the case then i think i would be able to get them for less then the 160 my cousin is bringing me 2 sets of corrado clear lights, n he can send me more if anyone wonted...
  10. if your interested i can get the fk ones for £160 delivered from the uk... either styles..... you gotta remeber the VAT on top of the price when getting them from abroud
  11. ok cant find the damn leak the oil is very clear clean ends up on the gearbox end most of the engine is clean n oil free excect the lower gearbox end n it ends up dripping from that metal vw badge below..... from above its still all dry n clean except there is alot of oil sitting on the right side of the top of da gearbox.... there is a slight leak coming from the thick pipe on da right hand side.. is this da oil cooler?? it feels like there is also oil coming from that pipe?? is that possible on a vr6??? HELP
  12. hi i might be getting a good price on the fk one around 160 allinall donno if your interested??
