Laughing Laughing Laughing


All done!
Very Happy

Hasn't been problem free though Confused
The US rear bumper are they larger than the Euro spec one (I know the fronts are)? I couldn't hide the rear box Sad
Also I need to sort out a better bracket for the front/cat section and the rear box section.
Dispite this I am well chuffed Very Happy
Car battery is on trickle charge now Wink







Not bad considering I haven't got a garage or a decent lift Laughing Laughing

I think I have fooked up big time..... Crying or Very sad

'I thought' it would just be enough with the rear silencer box - but clearly it isn't.
I really need another mid silencer box Sad
Fook knows how I'm going to fit this??
I'll take a chat with 034 tomorrow and see if I can substitute one of the pipes for one with a box in.....

Other than that take it to someone over here to sort out
*censored* Sad

If I was a spotty 17year old then fine, keep it the way it is.
But hell talk about hearing the 5 pot burble Evil or Very Mad

To tell you the truth I don't know.
I really need to do a few drive pasts while the wife holds the camera.

Don't know what I've done now, must've messed something up refitting it all, seems like it's down on power as well Sad
Have already checked all hoses.
Out with VAG Com.....

Decent garage near me called Trollspeed (Near Trollhättan, going to give them a ring tomorrow as well).

VAG Com threw up no surprises

Not good, might be good to reset the ecu/take the battery lead off for a bit then take it for a long drive and see what happens. Sad

Some progress....
Been on the phone to Trollspeed
http://www.trollspeed.se/default.aspx

Cars going up there next week for them to have a look at and get a quote, then back again next month for the work to be done (it's still holiday time over here, whole country near enough shuts down for 10 weeks Confused Sad )

They're certain they can fix everything (hangers, brackets, shorten the rear box pipe so it hides behind the rear bumper), cut away a section of pipe away and fit an extra sound box in.

They also have a 4wd rolling road Wink

Happy days are on the horizon Very Happy

Now starting on the seats.
Ordered all the gear from the Furniture Clinic (minus the cans of compressed air, added some leather filler, cheers Gav, Si)

Been advised to change over the front seats first before I dye them.
Backs are easy.

However on the back of the rear seat its beige carpet type material - this must be black.
The leather dye won't work, so I've seen this:
Ebay item number 250475831320
Upholstery Fabric spray paint - would this be ok to use?

even better seen some of this:
Item number 200365762045
(doesn't require heat setting)

Cheers
Mark

Back!!

Cleaned up the leather and took it right back, just filled in all the cracks.
Going to sand it down and apply the first few coats of dye tomorrow
Very Happy







Gav, Si - your right it's all in the prep work, should be a nice finish after the dyes on
