Yeah I like but thanks for the tip. I noticed some paint was stripped off the nut on the bonnet, I may use a cloth to cover it while loosening.

Those look sick!

Where did you get them LEDs from?

Painted the my brake callipers and the ends of the axels, they always rust and it looks really bad.

Really happy with the finish of the paint!

Again no idea why my photos keep flipping šŸ˜‚

Why bother with black centre caps? Just go on ebay and get a tiny bit of black wrapping material for a couple of quid delivered and wrap the VW centre caps. I did this when I got a set of VW Polo winter wheels for the wifes (then) Audi A1 as I didn't want VW badges on an Audi (mismatch).

The part you need is: 6C0 601 171 - I would go and see TPS in Aberdeen, they are open to the public and ask for a discount....

I’m pretty sure Mj is talking about The Trade Parts Specialists

Yup - Trade Part Specialists, I discovered going through the dealer ( Specialist Cars or Aberdeen Audi ) put a mark up on the part !! Dealing directly will save you a bit of money. Crazy when TPS is owned by Specialist Cars anyway !! They get stuff next day and are open till 6pm. The only downside is if you don't pick up the part in like 2 days it goes back into local stock which could then be bought by someone else. They have some funny ways.
