Is that a badge skin overlay ?


I got mine (looks the same) from etsy, more money but here a lot quicker than 8 or 9weeks that’s for sure, it was listed as being for a mk2 Tiguan.

Had a productive day today. Got the 4 new injectors in and running :D

Also finished off the main bits of the roof. I just need to finish the little strip that hides the joins then I'll move on to getting the "walls" done. Just waiting on a dimmer switch to turn up so I can control the lights properly.

Etsy have one that’s listed as a mk2 tiguan, that’s the one Iv used. Same front badge as the caddy but rear is different.

I've attached the .stl and .obj files if anyone wants to use them :)

Just collecting stuff to put on the van over winter ready for summer and I’m wondering, does a mk4 washer bottle provide more space to fit the mk7.5 gti bumper fog lights than the mk3 washer bottle?

Cut some flat bar, tapped out 6mm threads so I can use them as brackets to attached the tie downs so i can attach bungee cords to hold the bikes still

Then grip filled the bracket so I can take the bolts out when I get round to carpeting the van

The van got, a full service, new rear discs and pads, two arb bushings and a new battery,
Its ready for the winter months.
I couldn't get the bottom bolt off the calipers bracket so had to pop the bearing off and wiggle the disc out and same again with new disc.
Took a little while but got the job done.
