Re: out with the old

Looks great ! I am scared of breaking my clocks, i would purchase a set if i knew someone who could fit them, mine wouldn't be accurate by the time i had finished fitting them :(

Thats good, mines a k-tec too. I was worried whether there was going to be enough space, because as you know, its alot wider than an o.e cooler!

Re: out with the old

Looks much better. :agree:

Like this car very much indeed. Looking forward to seeing the decals put on.

Just in case you want to remove the over-boost switch (as I notice you don't have it connected atm), you can buy a grub screw with an allen key fitting very cheaply that will neaten up that intercooler pipe.

Awesome door cards :)

Are they done by Phoenix? When you send them do you have to remove and clean the old material off? Oh and how much for a full set (front and back)???
