FOSTA Posted November 11, 2015 Author Share Posted November 11, 2015 Well that's 3 full nights of sanding and polishing but they are done! Just need to paint the spark plug cover now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Did you clean out the baffles after polishing dude? All the polishing bits can get in there, you don't want that going round your engine. I did mine recently, there was loads of crap in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timlowthian Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 If you dont mind me asking what process did you go through to polish the covers? It would be a good project for these horrible weather days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoGlE Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 So have the flappy paddles actually turned this into a tiptronic? How much of a job was it to fit? Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FOSTA Posted November 13, 2015 Author Share Posted November 13, 2015 So have the flappy paddles actually turned this into a tiptronic? How much of a job was it to fit? Joe Yeah it's full manual at a flick of a paddle now fella, it wasn't too bad to fit. As long as you can solder and fit a steering wheel your golden. Obviously you need either a syvecs or suprastick to do it if you havnt got one already! I've done a write up in the technical section on how to fit them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FOSTA Posted November 13, 2015 Author Share Posted November 13, 2015 If you dont mind me asking what process did you go through to polish the covers? It would be a good project for these horrible weather days. Basically you just need to sand them back to bear metal and get yourself a polishing mop that goes into a drill with some polishing compound and your set. Loads of videos on YouTube on how to do it. Very simple process but very time taking !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoGlE Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Sounds good, flappy paddles is probably what I'll go with later down the line. What gears does it allow you to select? From 1st to 4th or? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From 1st to 4th or? Yeah the full gear range down shift and up shift when ever you like so fully manual. 1st 2nd 3rd and 4th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
