Update-ish
Well all this is leading up to a big update because i've bought a load of parts that i need and want 
Well firstly this lot arrived that i have needed to do for a while to give the car a general freshen up and fix a couple of niggles i have wanted to sort for ages!
Fuel, oil, pollen filters,
K&N panel filter,
Bosch super 4s
Check strap to replace on drivers door (v annoying door swinging open!)
Replacement wishbone after bishes have gone causing creaking! :@
Anyway got to work fitting all this and while i was there flushed coolant, replaced oil, checked all fluids bla bla... as u can see filters needed doing, car is running much smoother now
K&N  hehe
Well thats all maintainance and not so interesting so i deciding while i'm spending money i'd treat myself and thanks to Alex aka kenny16m i got Some h7 crystals, GTi half leather interior, GTi leather wheel and electrics for electric window conversion im planning, all in great condition at a great price! Cheers mate! So after a trip down to wales i came back with a van full of goodies! Amazing how nice the leather interior came up after a good hoover, scrub down and leather treatment!! :
Some nice lights and interior to replace my GASH lights and interior!
Can't fully fit interior until i get electric windows sorted so will be another big update soon also inc crystals and leather wheel to go in! (and some painting going on)
Although i did get bored and managed to replace the rear parts of the interior! Much better IMO:
Like i said hang fire more updates v v soon hopefully!
Cheers for looking

Yeah just a little pee shooter i had lying around in the garage, was better than a rusty pipe. But i will be getting a smooth sports rear bumper and hidden exhaust so not doing anything with it till then
Interior is nice yeah definately a great mod!
Cheers

UPDATE
Bit of an update, got the rest of my interior in over the weekend, and my crystals and gti wheel. Front doorcards will have to wait until electric window conversion is done!
Interior - before:
Interior - after:
Wheel - before:
Wheel - after:
Lights - before: (crap)
Lights - during: (thats not me btw lol)
Lights - after:
Crystals are fitted with h4-h7 adapters and have led sidelights and xenon full and dipped beams, 100x better than the frosted lights! Will sound stupid but seats and wheel make it feel like driving a different car!
Anyway let me know what you think Cheers

Its all great, feels like a different car inside and the crystals make all the difference, epsecially at night
I though it was only right you saw where your stuff ended up lol, i left a positive feedback in the buyer/seller feedback thread aswell

Cheers, and no nothing at all in about 2 months, touch wood! lol
tbh some people don't notice, they are quite subtle i think you'd have to look hard to spot them

Got a couple of little bits done today, whacked out the hammerite!
Painted my front toe eye black as it stood out which i didnt like!
Before:
After:
Much better! Smoother looking front end now the tow eye is almost invisible.
Also did my front calipers, disk edges and hubs gloss black.
Looks ten times better than faded paint and rust i think
Before:
After:
Also sorted out all my bits that need to be sold, heres the link to the thread, there's spacers, bolts, seats, steelies etc:

Very nice mate, i know what you mean about the seats. When i fitted gti seats in my old 206 it felt totally different, i loved it. I'm thinking about doing my calipers soon, was it just standard hammerite you used? how long did you have to leave it to dry before driving?
