It's a big job! I had it back on the road by 23:30 :D but still needs tidying and proper ling up.

I'd give yourself at least 2/3 days to get it finished.

And around £450 :D

if I was on this forum when I had my mk6 I would have been all over it like flies on a turd but noooo I went and bought a mk7 money tumor :lol:
no regrets either way tho.
( in short I'd do it in a flash :wink: )

Think I'll put the respray off till later and sort a new front out :D just have to blend it in with house move so her in doors don't moan too much :lol:

:o
that should get rid of the annoying bumping on the left :x

10 mins job and have done the bushes, gotta say the quality difference was astounding, the cheapo ones were soft and weak they also had 4 joins from production where as a quick look at the mofoco ones looked to be 1 piece.
the inner hole was a lot smaller making a very tight fit where as the old one was loose.
I know there are different sizes but I'm made up with the Ford ones, had I known they would only be 3.50 each before, I would have got them first.
you live and learn :wink:

I have done that so many times! 99% perfect and you just can't help give it that 1 little tweak and then it's fkd. :x
