Well after nearly 2 years Rose finally finished polishing the plenum and did some front water pipes as well. Combine that with the powder coated strut brace, powder coated coil pack brackets, powder coated power steering pot, painted front cam covers, Hybrid 360 degree turbos, divorced down pipes, boost controller and some nice dress bolts, she is almost dressed for JAE Big GriniscoStu:

hehe I'll take some decent ones with a proper camera when it's done. This was me last night on my S3 in my tuners garage at dusk, so the quality isn't awesome. Here's the before picture though, which was a couple of days ago.

And disaster has struck, went to pick her up yesterday and sadly our loom is not in the best condition, been fighting with it the whole 3 years we've had the car. It's finally decided to give up and needs to be replaced, so the car is still sat at my tuners, waiting for a new loom from the states. They aint cheap either, $440 from Z1, plus shipping, plus any taxes HMRC decide to levy on it just because the USA isn't in the EU.

Just to cheer myself up, I went down to the tuners to snap a couple of pics of the engine complete and back together, even though it can't be driven because of the loom, so here ya go Big Grin
