Liking the engine. I see the bay is now black, is the yellow outside staying or is that going black too?

Thanks it is starting to come together now..
The yellow is staying I have spent today fitting the rear window and side decals will post some images tomorrow..Looks SWEET!!!!
Still undecided what to do with the wheels though, I have a spare set of g60's but they look to big on the car..May go for standard gti rims….what do ya think???

Sorry mate - my signature means that I am looking to buy those items… also looking for them but reckon i will just use my rear washer bottle for the front.
Early door cards…. that is a tough one!
Good luck mate.

I have not got them yet but i will let you know what there like when i get em..

Hi,
Are the door cards covered in leather and if so, would you mind saying how much it was for the pair?
Thanks,
D
