Citypowdercoating looks good! Only £30/each so £120 total!!

I'll probably buy those indicator lights too. Can you let me know how you get on with them, and if they're any good?

Looks like they did a cupra alloy!

 

[marksy93]

will do and £30quid isnt bad - shall email them now

 

[Chris_a_73]

Did you get a response?

 

[marksy93]

Did you get a response?

Haven't had chance to email them yet, will do tomorrow.

Slight issue with the car though - everytime i reverse and turn and then brake it sounds like I'm going over a stone - every time I reverse it makes the same noise. Could it be air in the brake system after the new set of discs and pads?? It's not the alloys as it did it before.

Something fell off mine last night , i went back to see but couldn't find anything. Hit a pothole hard and afew yards later heard something hit back left hard!

 

[marksy93]

hmm...well its every time i reverse and turn it sounds like i go over a stone, but once i have pressed the brake once it doesnt happen again - very confusing. I think it may be air in the system

How did you get on with those indicator bulbs..?

Also, any word from the refurbers? All your exams finished yet?

 

[marksy93]

Laptop is bust so that's why I have been quiet for a few days....anyway all exams done and now I'm free of school

Indicator bulbs were easy, simple mod but I think really effective (will show you lot pictures when I get my laptop back)

There is also one new addition to the bezza....comes in the form of a Vibe CBR10 sub now I know it's not to everyone's liking (subs that is) but I got it 2nd hand (but never used) with all the cables for £120 so not complaining.

Question though....how the hell do I fit it?!

It will be linked to an alpine head unit

 

[Chris_a_73]

You'll need an amp unit won't you...?

Do the bulbs flash as bright as standard?

 

[marksy93]

Already got an amp fitted - and bulbs seem the same tbh, look good got my laptop back today so shall put pics up tomorrow

 

[marksy93]

So after a few hours and a fully sunburnt back & neck the sub is installed and working well shall put pics up when I'm home just getting some sympathy for my sunburn

 

[marksy93]

well finally got some time to come on here via a laptop! so here are the pics -

indicator bulbs...

& new subwoofer -

& fitting....

 

[marksy93]

hiding the wires was a pain in the arse but really happy with the final job

 

[marksy93]

and the bezza looking clean -

oh yeah i did cable tie the wires together to make them look neater - even though they are underneath the seats etc but ah well i know its there!

 

[Veyron]

Looking good! Next job has to be a Polo rear wiper!?

 

[Chris_a_73]

[marksy93]

Nice car mate!

Those silver indicators bulbs look good, have to get myself some of those.
Good work with the sub too, looks nice and tidy! Facelift FR are also a great improvement
