I dont do anymore than 90 (kph honest) around the wirral as it is all too closed in. On the m6 and m74 tho traffic flows at around 95 and when its quiet i like to give it a spurt.

chrome and yellow, if you put blue, red, green, or any other colour in there it'll just look kinda stupid as it wont match anything frown

when i got my car my engine bay was REALLY filthy so i thought 'best part of a gti so ill clean it'.

heres a before pic that a took a week'ish ago, and it is rotten

[Linked Image]

then i got some CD2 spray from halfrauds and it works suprisingly well,
spray first can on, that brakes all crap down, then wipe with wet cloth/spray with water, then leave to dry then spray on second can which brightens it all up. i also took apart my induction kit and gave that a good clean aswel as cleaning bonnet and loads of plastic parts. and here are the results after 2ish hours worth of work.

only part letting it down now is the rocker cover which will soon be chromed or powder coated (dont know which one yet), and ive got a Spec R manifold cover in chrome on the way aswel, thanks to adam for helping, and ben (kinda)
