So done a few more bits on the gti , firstly I've fitted a piper cross viper induction kit but no pics as it's not in an optimal place just waiting on some pipe so I can sort it ,
I've fixed an oil leak from the brake vacuum and also fixed a power steering fluid leak it developed .
I've picked up a decat pipe but not yet fitted , will hopefully get that on next week .
However I have done some more bits today I took a trip to my local scrapyard and picked up a replacement wing for the one that was damaged on the trip home after purchase (see first pic of thread)
I also removed the side skirts as these were in a terrible state anyway.
So let's get some pics only had a few hours spare tonight so my aim was to get them in primer and il will paint tommorrow .
Job get the skirts off which was a pain in the arse but some swearing and a few cuts on the hands and all was well haha
Here are some pics of the damage on the skirts peeling and big scratches/grazes
Now the wing I got wasn't mint , did have a small crease but compared to the one on the car it was a lot better and nothing a touch of filler could not sort
Couple of skims and a good sand
Ready for primer
And the skirts ready for the good stuff
And finally primer will update tommorrow
