Nice update. Did your friend put some sort of coating back on the headlights after buffing? If not, they will start to cloud again pretty quickly.

Yes, gradually built it up, with glaze, sealant, and some coats of swissvax waxes.

Thanks mate.
My fender bolts are already changed with stainless hardware, as are these in the pics, and grille. The only ones not changed are the black ones pictured , that are no normal bolts, but self-threading ones (if I am saying it correctly)

So, some more pics of parts received, and ordered

First, a new fog light from the dealership, cause for reasons I am not aware of, my oem one melted in the connector area - will see why when I replace it





The rubber grommets for the antenna- took some more, just because



I also ordered a set of 4 floor mats from the dealership - the price did hurt a bit- and they will look like these - pics for reference

Will propably install them after I finish installing my alcantara interior
I also ordered some worn out plastics. Trying to sort everything and make it like new again, and even better, since the car will be seeing less daily use, and more fun use now that I got the AUD1ESEL.

Till then, I am with my AUD1ESEL, exploring more places of Greece













Amount of fuel needed for 400kms - less than 1/4 of a 45lt tank, with the roof box on, clima always on, and twisty mountain roads - cant beat that







You should really come to Greece sometime soon



Cheers

Why not upgrade to projector fogs?

Why not upgrade to projector fogs?

No reason to be honest, havent even bothered looking for those.
I hardly used my fogs, I was most likely about to remove them like in the past. Just thought I'd try and hold myself this time, and keep it kinda more oem, hehe. Projector fogs would look smart, surely, especially with a 3000K HID behind them. But, like I said, not really digging it currently.

Still trying to figure out what you did with your cluster to remove cell light. Have you just blocked it off from the back using tape or likes of so not to let light shine through?
Here when testing the vehicle they make sure the light illuminates when contact is made.
I removed my bulb in my mk3 - failed as no illumination what so ever.

Fog Light got all yellow



Got me some RS3 / TT-RS front bushings



And finally



I think it's about time I started installing the trimmed interior on the golf



Hell of a project to say the least.

Cheers more to come​

Oh boy that alcantara looks great. Can't wait to see it in the car.
