That yellow front badge looks epic mate! Think the little touches of yellow really make a nice difference

Re: Hdi project - Poodle - 23-04-2012

One of the tidiest, most complete projects out there, glad to see you over here

Re: Hdi project - ben87 - 05-05-2012

just a minor parts update...few days ago my gear rod decided to pop out, luckily i simply pulled off from my house and popped..so called the AA and Â£70 later (had to upgrade to home start Sad

) it was fixed...pulled off and went again, AA quickly put it back and i went on my way,ordered new rods from pug1off and arrived within 2days.

So i was unaware of changing these so enlisted the help of Tom1357,but i decided to give it a crack myself whilst textinh im and boom few hours later managed to get them all off and pop the new ones plus clips back on. The gear changes feel alot smoother now and tighter...cheap buy so id deffo recommend buying them

This was the one causing trouble...the rubber was stuck on the pivot and was hell of a job to get it off

Re: Hdi project - MarkTD - 05-05-2012

Nice 306! yellow works really well with the Astor colour.

Hdi project - ben87 - 06-05-2012

Cheers mate I did do yellow fogs....but looked like the car was older then so just sticking with the yellow lion...may do the towing eye at some point

Re: Hdi project - MiiTCH - 06-05-2012

is that the seat cupra r splitter you have on in the top picture?

how was it to fit? did it need trimming at all? think it looks AMAZING!
