Is that the one?

could possibly be me? I've got a b5.5 wagon on white audi wheel... I'll try and a pic
I work in Lincoln

Spotted a low b5.5 saloon in silver on looked like black wheels, all front end smoothed and plate in Windscreen.
Seen coming the other way on sat morning around 8:15 at Newark near the rugby club.
I was in a blue b5.5 estate. Flashed at you.
Anybody from here?

They're not too bad, although I do have access to the tools at work but took about an hour a side including the wiring but thats not fully neatened in yet. Door card off, and then a torx bolt on the mirror. But Id advise getting some spare trim clips for the door as I broke a couple on removal as th...

Managed to source some skoda superb mirrors last week so put them on today. Need painting tho. Only got indicators but still got them for a bargain price so cant grumble. Wiring was a bit fiddly but wired in to my side repeater. Before: http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z19/DKrider247/Mobile%20Uplo...

Thats a really good idea! Never thought about doing that, I was just going to try and free them then slap a load of grease on lol.
Thanks

Haha yeah I had a rear one on still but that soon had to go lol

Well managed to fit my coilovers over the last few days. Adjusters are still seized but it's driveable for now so that will be a job for another day lol http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z19/DKrider247/Mobile%20Uploads/DSC_0800.JPG http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z19/DKrider247/Mobile%20Uploads/...

Ah thanks alot. I didnt have a clue as alot of the blues look similar!

Cheers mate. Just need to source a pair now, ideally in my colour.
What colour is mine? Is it fjord blue?
(I looked but couldnt see the vin sticker in boot but. The boot Is full and it was raining)
Thanks for the advice guys.

Ok thanks. Might keep an eye out for some higher spec ones.

Yeah its a pain parking there but other half's car is on the drive as no t&t or ins cos shes not passed yet so I'm relegated to the pathway lol.
Not thought of that yet.
Would later spec mirrors with indicators fit? Is there a feed already in the body loom for them?

Well woke up to pop to tesco and found this: http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z19/DKrider247/Mobile%20Uploads/DSC_0786.JPG http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z19/DKrider247/Mobile%20Uploads/DSC_0787.JPG I live opposite a bus stop so people often get impatient and try to force their way round. The ...

No Chris, not yet. Sprayed all the blots etc with SAS (WD40) equivalent. Ready for when I do.
Yeah ill get some pics up when fitted.
Looks like they are fk so a reasonable brand. Altho one of the rear shocks is a bit soft. But see how they are when fitted.

They are called 'DRL' lights but they are just the sidelights but LED rather than bulbs.

Haha yeah so I keep seeing people say lol.
Mine are already freed off as u did top arms for MOT but ill try to avoid them.

Well progress has been a tad slow but gave her a good clean the other day as was very dirty and a little abused lol Pretty happy with results as it was only a quick clean: http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z19/DKrider247/DSC_0751.jpg http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z19/DKrider247/DSC_0752.jpg An...

Haha im starting to think like that with mine. Just keep seeing things I want but she keeps telling me off!
Also I've just noticed im in one of your pics on first page l at gaydon meet.

Jesus mate. Looking through this build thread and I cant believe just how much your car has transformed since the first time I saw it!
Love it!!

Keep on seeing this around Mansfield.
Black b6 estate, black wheels. (look like Audi rs wheels). Seen parked up at kwikfit Mansfield.

Also seen a silver b6 saloon on 3sdm 005's a few times

Anyone On here?

Thanks, the plan is next to get some coilies and then nice wheels but no rush at the moment for the wheels. Thinking along the lines of monoblock style wheels of some sort.
The lights are just that something a little bit different. But like you say, not going to be everyone's cup of tea.

Hi all. I wasnt originally going to put a build thread on as I wasnt planning On doing much for a while but the car had other plans. Started as just a bit tatty b5.5 pd130, swapped for my e46 320d as I needed more space. http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z19/DKrider247/DSC_0413.jpg http://i189.phot...

Well finally started to do little bits and piecea on it. Firstly fitted a darkside developments egr delete kit today as mine was leaking. Seems to have stopped the noise I was getting. Also polished my dingey headlights so might be able to see at night. Slow progress but in the right direction hopef...

Haha thanks mate.
Lowering is on my to do list after I get it running all sweet.
Looking at how much your car has changed, ive got alot to learn haha

Welcome as a fellow noobie!
