All the lacquer was peeling off the calipers so I rubbed it all down and resprayed it with caliper paint. I used a tin from halfords. They came up really well then just stuck some new brembo decals on.

You'd be better off buying the blades off eBay unless you have nearly £40 burning a hole in your pocket, halfords are expensive.
I picked up some genuine Bosch ones for £18.

Are you getting the blades that fit the standard hook arms or you bought the pin version from a golf/bora?
started stripping my wheels but i think the holes between spokes have been powder coated as standard so i might get a furbing company to strip them properly
not a good picture but you can sorta see the difference

Fitted my b5 v3 TIP, wow what a difference! Pulls a lot stronger now.. The old TIP must of been on its last legs, it literally fell to pieces around the turbo housing as I was undoing the jubilee clip!
Wanna get this done, Worth doing then?
Powerflex end my Dogbone mount. Single best modification I've done

Yeah defiantly for £20 odd i didnt think I'd notice much difference but so much smoother on launch and thru gears no crashing about as before.

Think iv discovered the sause of one of the random sounds my car makes. I could have sworn it was coming from the interior, a frequent sweeping that was doing my head in. Seems my rear wiper blade is the guilty party lol
