I didnt think it did? The Janspeed writing is just visible so i presumed thats how it went lol

Also got my wheels back friday, they are Ford graphite grey ( favourite colour ) Fitted with 4x Hankook v12 Evo tyres after a lot of consideration into what tyre to use. Fitted the black wheel nut covers and Peugeot dust caps that i've had for a while too. Hopefully its become apparant why i painted my calipers and discs black now!
Productive weekend as well as i fitted the Simota induction kit i had and my wind deflectors too. Not a big fan of the K&N Typhoon and there's not much else on the market, plus i had a Simota on my vts and loved it
Few pics after a couple of hours of going over this morning ( then it rained ten minutes later! )
Also there's a rolling road day locally next weekend so i'm considering going just to see what its got lol.
Wish it would stay dry for more than a few hours now!

It's the same as on my brothers 180, his janspeed sticks out quite a bit too, is it not because they are made when they are ordered as when my brother ordered his they had none in stock and so had to get janspeed to make it
#36: Re: Aegean Blue GTi 180 - Few new bits UPDATE 25/11/12 Author: rttam, Location: devonPosted: Sun Nov 25, 2012 11:54 am ---- think they make janspeeds out of whatever is lying around the 4 i have seen have all been slightly different some are matt stainless just the tailpipes polished, others are highly polished on the whole thing, some have ribs on the boxes and janspeed stamped on others are smooth and iv seen one that didnt have janspeed stamped on the tailpipes either.
mine sat flush and could of still slid in further whereas others iv seen pushed right into the joint still stick out.
did find the tailpipes a bit big for the cutout in the bumper too.
think that sits nicely though can just read the writing without it sticking out miles

#39: Re: Aegean Blue GTi 180 - Few new bits UPDATE 25/11/12 Author: DanT, Location: Torbay, EnglandPosted: Sat Jan 19, 2013 12:47 pm ---- Not much been happening since last time, bought some headlights and fog lights, masked them and have fitted those. Wanted to do it from day one as i cant stand the chrome inside most headlights!
Bit of a crappy picture i know but you all know what they look like.
And today's job....
Been freezing cold fitting them but noticed the leak a few days ago and i've got M.O.T next friday so wanted to get it sorted asap, even if it means doing it at home!
So thats that really! Epic cleaning session needed so hopefully will be dry on my day off and can attack it!

As my silver reflectors are rusted on mine and got some new ones on order so wanted to give it a go on the old ones

Thanks im unsure of how far ill be going with it at the moment but i intend to keep it for a fair while so we'll see!
To be honest it's quite easy, did mine with a heat gun, go around the glue with it for a couple of minutes and the glass popped almost straight off with a decent flat head. Once thats done the only tricky bit i found was popping the adjuster back on to the back of bulb holder. Its a bit fiddly but all quite simple to do
#43: Re: Aegean Blue GTi 180 - Small update 19/01/13 Author: spike_202, Location: West midsPosted: Sat Jan 19, 2013 5:56 pm ---- Sweet nice one mate once I get them ill use the heat gun technique then I've never messed around with the fogs before so any advice would be awesome. Tryed looking for a how to but all the threads have had the photos removed.

There were was some photo's of a rr at aj's and in 1 of the pics you can see the front of a agean 180 with cupra splitter, can only think it's yours because there is no other agean 180 with cupra splitter in plymouth other than my brother, will try and find it again

To be honest mate they are a lot easier than the headlights if you've done those before? Yeah its annoying when the pictures disappear on old threads
