Thanks both - I could of took a bit more time getting the casing vapour blasted is it- about a month later after i sanded the casing - primed and vht degree 800 - next door at my work yard a small vapour blaster opened up lol. 

What a gross job cleaning the casings it was- could smell the fluid for a month after - sick stuff.

Thanks Cressa. Seems a shame to have tucked behind a wheel ha ./ 

I will get a video of beforw and after 70 mph to see if revs drop and a review of performance. 

Here is a great video story of a lucky find of a VWMS box from a Rado G60 scrapper. Have met this seller he came round mine once to buy some G60 callipers for his mk2.  clever use of rear hubs to.

Went out for a grease and spoon this morning and then headed up to stealth for an oil change- engine has broken in now and its tanking- my mates aqua with a schrick gave him a good roasting the other day 😄

Them fogs and indicators look better. How did you come by them?

I asked about the fogs and indicators not the headlight, don’t  believe you 🤣😂🤣🤣

Last time I heard you’d got some replicas fitted in and was morning about the cost of replacement originals.

They are average mate they could be better - if you could prise the lenses off them could get the reflectors done- that is the only true way to get them mint- i do have some nos lenses at home and x1 new fog but they are spares for when i get a stone chip. I think the indicator lenses could come off easily -the more rotten the better they will come off. 

Ive managed to collect some since- broken a couple of cars and also look out for spares - i gave my mate the after market ones I really like the hella ones.  .

Looks stunning! The blue coming from the headlights is it from the bulb? And man, I love those wheels! So how's the 6 speed transmission mate?

Yep sure has 8/10 k renovation - I will daily this for 3 years - that is a good way of getting back money spent on a car by using it and enjoying and Black Magic will be the show pony.
