Re: Polo 9n3 wing mirrors

Colour code the caps, I got new primed caps, painted to match the car, and then popped the old base model black ones off and clipped red ones on.
Thought would be whole new mirrors, but they come apart completely so just sprayed some up.

Re: Lockdown and the polo.

Other car that's been played with is the mini, its been in the garage since August, and for quite a while before that. It's one of those where you always think 'that's it, sorted ' then something else crops up, or you have another idea. Master cylinder replaced as was the cause of the mysterious bra...

256 to 280 brakes

Just out of interest, and reading some mk4 golf info, can you swap the 256mm front discs to 280mm with change of disc and pads, same calipers. I know the bigger upgrade needs the 1.9/GTI style hubs (which I have an with brembo calipers in my shed) but the smaller fixed carrier spindles use same FsII...

Re: Bluemotion splitter replica

I'll keep looking, usually end up finding bits. And if I do mould the covers, I'll let you know.
Out of interest, I see you are southwest area, are you by any chance guy/brother who had Peugeot 205 or 309 and use to go round crosskeys scrappy for bits? Pure random I know.
