So you dont want the pics now....

[leenel88]

No sorry pal for messing you about, I managed to get a set of wheels and tyres on e-bay so I'm all sorted now. Wanted to get some asap as the cars nearly ready for going back on the road

[joe_vrs_tdi]

No probs, what you get after?

[leenel88]

Just some more rs4 wheels 18inch et35 same as the old ones and 8j. There getting reconditioned and being spayed white by the company I bought them off, so they should look like this once done

[leenel88]

Mini bus ran into it down at the garage, could have been worse but its still abit of a  kick in the balls

[danny6189]

Think I would of hit the roof after all the time and money you have put in that car!

[hutchysrs50]

Someone would have died for that!

Again in my case anyway.

(Lets try this post again) wheels came today and look alot better than I thought they would. 1 big plus point is that they don't catch anymore so all's good, well apart from the obvious that is.

[joe_vrs_tdi]

They look 100x better mate. My only nigles now are the screws in the front wings and that bend in the lower part of the front grille. Just giving my 2p worth of what i would do

[Dark_Hero]

They look superb

bend in the front grill is getting sorted, scews in the wings are staying though as thats the only way I could think of fastening it on. I could have made them so they were smoothed off but if I ever needed to take the bumper off I would of had to get it resprayed

[George]

That looks alot better with the white wheels

[leenel88]

Not much of an update today but thought I'd post anyway. Changed  both cv boots and both front anti roll bar links for mot, I also painted the inner archs due to getting overspray on them from the paint job and made up some front mud flaps.

[devonutopia]

Going to get the overspray off the suspension at some point?

[leenel88]

Yeah I think some thinners will get that off with no problem

[leenel88]

Bumper's back, just two more jobs to do and then back to paint and its done. Mid january it should be back on the road

[leenel88]

Any one know where I can get some spot lamps from for the lamp pod, all the ones I've seen are stupidly expensive. I could really do with some 6inch ones that I can screw onto the pod. Thanks in advance for any replies guys

Have you tried ebay?

 

A lot of the Land Rover people used to buy on there when they wanted 4 to go on the roofrack.

 

Just check the sizes.

Maybe from an old Golf Driver or something?

[leenel88]

I looked on ebay but the only ones I could find are closed units with the plastic casing  :(

[BossFox]

Ah, I see, you need the ones that fit like this then?

[leenel88]

Yep their the ones I need but there £ 240, abit expensive I thought

[leenel88]

going to be buying a egr delete next week, my question is: how do you mate the standard intake pipe to the egr delete after its been fitted? Do i need to find some rubber intake pipe, cut the standard intake pipe before the metal clip and join the two or is there a kit out there where everything I will need is included? Any advice from anyone who has carried this out and pics would be very much appreciated. Also got some striaght exhaust pipe that I will be de-cating it with next week and will be carrrying out the elephant mod too.
