Gti6 and xsi cam covers

[Matt]

Are they the same? I like the 16v badge on the gti6 and I wanna tidy my engine bay up

So any help wether they are the same? Can't see them being too different

[4WayDiablo]

Ive not heard of it done tbh so looks unlikely btw matt staples southampton! Be there

[Matt]

I can't get there lol! And I hadn't ward of it done before. But a remember that cab with the xsi engine that joined up recently had them. Wondered If he had changed his engine or not. Suppose I could just by some! And see

[samass]

cant see them being different tbh... try it and tell us all!

[Matt]

For £27 delivered it would be silly not too really

[4WayDiablo]

Thats not bad! Purple!

[Niall]

They will fit.

Ive been thinking of doing this myself for months. I know where a decent set is but just havent had the money or enthusiasm yet!

[Matt]

Sweeeeet!!! I already have an idea, it's either going purple with a black 16v or black with a purple 16v just not sure which I'd prefer lol

That looks sweet! Gti or xsi engine though?

[Ed_van_Dijk]

Gti 6, just an excuse to show off my red 16v LOL

[Matt]

Haha fair enough, might do te same but with purple how was it done?

[Ed_van_Dijk]

Red hammerite and a very small brush and a steady hand

Oh wait thought i had asked but apprently not. Will the gti6 covers fit the 1.8? I want some red 16V stuff under the hood!

Yep they will

[Eeyore]

Also whilst we are at it... Ed (or anyone else) is that high tempt paint you used on the inlet manifold or will a good application of standard spray be enough? And... anyone know what length/size of bolts youd need to replace all the cam cover bolts? Cheers peeps. Looks like a summer engine bay tidy up will be in order!

Get the inlet manifold powder coated much better and worked out at £40 when I asked a place i had wheels done at to get it done

[GTI 6]

Luke i got my mates gti 6 inlet powder coated blue from the same place for £20 lol

[Ed_van_Dijk]

Mine cost a tenner to be powder coated, got loads of stuff all done together so he done it cheap
