Pablito

Thanks guys, and an extra big thanks to jmwuk - that is a very kind offer, but i think i need to get a set anyway, so i might get these and modify with some wood. If i have trouble with them for any reason i might well have to take you up on the offer of a loan.

Dave, do you know what sort of money you will be looking at for the 99 spec front bumpers? I understand that its hard to b accurate so early, but a ball park figure perhaps?

Would these be suitable? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/car-ramps-/220675857380?pt=UK_Lifting_Moving_Equipment&hash=item33614e5be4#ht_500wt_1154 i have to get to my gearbox sump and swap out the strainer - would these do? If not, i might have to make some up from wood. Thanks in advance

Its all about the Golf for me, i try and play as much as i can. But my job is a bit like a hobby insofar as it does impede on my everyday life, as a youth worker my job kind a becomes all encompassing really.

LWB = 2 seats in the back SWB = No seats I was going to say "simples" but i asked the very same question when i got mine lol. Also petrol filler cap is in different place - yours is a LWB mate.

Sounds like you got a bargain Ant, £1100 leaves you a bit in the bank to get the service and stuff done so happy days. If you want the smooth lip for the rear - CarMad does fibreglass replicas and his stuff fits perfect. By floormats i am assuming you mean the thick shagpile ones.... nice i love em, makes me feel like i'm back in the 80s.

That looks nice mate, you look to have quite a tidy one there, in so far as lots of the little niggly commen things on the outside that go wrong seem ok like the trim round the windscreen, the door window trim looks clean, so does the scuttle panel. Was this the one which decided to blow up on the way home last time? And did you only spend your £1500? I also only paid £1500 for mine and have used it as a daily driver for the past year - pretty problem free..... untill recently. I'm sure someone on here was selling some nice mongoose exhausts for a reasonable price recently, worth checking the for sale section. Anyway, nice car bud, and good luck with your future zedding.

lol you got there just befor me

If you check the trader section on here you will find a couple of good companies: Dan @ DTA Mike @ MJP Jeff @ Zedworld Just pop a thread in their (ie the traders) section for a response, or i'm pretty sure their respective telephone numbers are there too. or there is Z1motorsports (based in US thought) - just google it for the web address. hope that helps mate, and good luck with your search

I have no idea who would win, as you say he has all the new modern driver aids.... but i would like to watch the showdown...

:duffer:Happy Birthday :duffer:

nay bother mate, might just wait and see how long this thread lives on!

your gonna get me in trouble mate lol.

Mate, looking at your new sig, you should have put yourself in - i reckon you'd have given them all a run for their money...... especially all covered in muck and grease lol. :blushing: And just to agree with you from before, i myself would not have posted any semi-nude pics of my girlfriend - even if she did let me.

Hello mate, welcome. Get some pics up of your new toy.

:duffer:Happy Birthday :duffer:

Lovin it mate, a rude widebody like that needs a nice gaudy... i mean goldy paintjob. she is looking very tidy, those wheels are gleaming. Also what front bumper is that? it's one of the nicest bumpers i have seen on a wide arch.
