Very nice indeed mate, I wanted mars red but settled for black in the end. BBS wheels always look the nuts

Hi guys little bit of a update on what's going on with my Gti-
I got my self a 2.0 AGG bottom end a few weeks ago so I've got the old engine out and the engine bay is completely strip out! Spent 2 days and 2 litres of GUNK scrubbing 30 years of oil,grease and grim off the engine bay (my hands now hurt) but was worth it looks great now! Got the new block all cleaned up and painted
Got loads more parts to clean and paint up servo,mounts,gearbox etc Also got a 2.2 Audi throttle body and Kent cam also got the trim for the gti grill can wait to paint and fit that
Got loads more pics will get them up soon
