Which ones you got 912 or 452, can get the 912 fully fitted for £65 p/c and the 452 for on average an xtra £10.

Bad new is that the bite point on the clutch seems to be getting a tad lower, hasnt started to slip yet, or at least that ive noticed anyway, so will have to keep tabs on it

there is a small imprint of the TDi badges but not massively noticeable, and besides it will lighten up over time anyway

thats tomorrows job before the meet, i gave it a quick wash on the weekend but no polish or wax so it needs doing again to try and give it some depth of colour.

Do you think it looks better without the badges??

i like the rear end of the car tho, the facelift IBIZA badge personally looks good as does the FR, I am tempted by putting a new TDi badge on the rear left of the car, or a TDisport.com window sticker, as i defo want the TDi stamped somewhere (so people know they've been dieseled :p)
