yellow 6n2 progress thread :) (KW springs-40mm lower :) )

Hey man,

I asked my mate and he said it can be a bit fiddly but if he remembers right to remove the 3rd brake light you remove two screws from within the boot and then lever it out with a screwdriver.

Hope that helps.

[dub6n2]

ahh tks loads for that mate, will give it a try when I have some spare time

[dub6n2]

thinking of changing the wheels again as I want black ones to match the yellow/black theme... what do you think of these? they are 15" and he said they are BBS but I am not sure of that

(edit: going for around £120...almost afraid of buying them at such a cheap price)

[BIG RHYS]

Hay pal they look ok

cant see them being bbs wheels coz they look like muti-fit wheels. dont think bbs make wheels with that fitment correct me if I am wrong tho.

hehe same reason I thought that they aren't actually BBS apart from being cheap ... but I still sort of like them more than the once I have

[BIG RHYS]

I would get them if you like em cheap and dont look half bad cant go wrong

how wide are they try and get some stretched tyres for em !!

[dub6n2]

bet they are 7j (with 195 wide tires), but not sure. Yeah will definitely go for some stretch (185 or 175) and lower profile cos those tires look huge hehe

but cos I am low on money right now I have to wait till they wear out

[alexperkins]

Nah. They sit to snug for a 7J...There would be a bit of stretch on a 7j on a 195. More like 6 or 6.5J

ah could be cos I don't know any of the measurements neither of the wheels nor of the tires

[alexperkins]

[dub6n2]

hehe apart from being a great huge noob in wheel measurements

[dub6n2]

long time no updates ... done some minor stuff...

Sprayed one wheel (test wheel hehe) black using a rubber compound spray for a little different texture







sprayed the interior door handles using the same spray and as it is a rubber compound it gives a better touch then other sprays...





Sprayed the tweeter plastic surround but leaving the grill in original colour to be a little different hehe




sprayed the new rear badge in black after breaking the old one to remove it



I have also removed the resonator silencer so my stupid 1.0l makes a fucken awesome sound now hehe maybe I'll upload a vid on youtube some time

[6N2 GTI 00]

Good Job mate, not too sure on the door handles but everything else gets the thumbs up from me

[alexperkins]

Where was the spray from?

[dub6n2]

Where was the spray from?

ehh it's the one they use as stone guard hehe ... I really like it cos its easy to use and has got that nice matt texture finish to it the problem is that it needs constant polishing when exposed to the elements so I'll spray all over it with common mat black spray to go over the constant polishing...
