| .... your worried about the plate with the rozzers..... with that camber they'll end up in-pounding it as unroadworthy..... | |

| But you've used washers to push it out therefore creating a weak point and making it dangerous Ideally if you want to run that much camber you need to make/ buy a 'wedge' spacer.... | |

| ok so ive been thinking about putting some door signs on my car ive come up with an idea quickly photoshopped it i quite like it, what do you think? it says "rat a wagen restos" in german, and if i do paint it in, it will be wet sanded down so it will be faded, and find a better font or teh lettering | |

| just a little update. My golf will be off the road after gti spring fest due to no money for insurance :( but not all is bad, while its off the road it will give me a chance to sort a few things out and clean a few things up. firstly im gonna look into having my seat recoverd in black and door card and parcel self. my cousin makes interior for bmw so ill be speaking to her:) so all the interior will be black and then im gonna cover my head lining in mexican blankets should be pretty sweet . Also gonna spend alot longer cleaning up the engine bay tidy up some wiring etc should look sweet. Anyways ill update when i start on thing for now some rolling shots of the golf coming back from Ultimate Dubs | |
