Using Blue Peter sticky back plastic, is a good idea. might be easier than trying to sand it all back

I have a broken rocker cover breather hose that i have gaffered taped up so that might be the cause of the loss of power. It is already on order from VAGparts so i will see if that's the cause when i replace it. otherwise i might have drilled my airbox wrongly

The deflectors are from a shop on Ebay http://stores.ebay.co.uk/J-J-automot...2BSI%26otn%3D4.

I am also going for a 25-30% window tint all round. will set the car off nicley and still keep it within the law. Law states that a 70% light infiltration must be acheived when window tinting the front passenger windows and IMHO it would look better having the same level of tint allround on my saloon. The Avants it would probably look better with two tone tints

Am also reading up on the old NOS. When I was at Castle Combe for an owners club track day, i really felt that i wanted that extra boost to keep up with the M3's and the like and it will only be for this occasion as there are far too many cars on public roads nowadays to use it safely for everyday use. Besides £50-£80 refills for what, 10 minutes usage? is really not worth it. But would be great fun to use on the track
