Mine and Stewy's Fto's

Postby richardc9052 » Thu Mar 10, 2011 12:43 am

I met up with Stewy to give him his stray cat, wrecking my interior in the proccess... he's gonna put it under his car to shut it up!

Took a few Pics cos you cant resist... you can tell that his FTO has been taken car of and over the past few owners a beauty has been created on an already beautiful base car, so good work peeps! Although it does make mine look a bit cr*p! :P

Nice pics - those Work rims turned out well Stewy. Set of (motorsport type) spacers on there now and it would complete the look.

I went by your house twice as I had to do to the solicitors a few doors up from ya and didn't see your car.
But there was a guy in beside your parking space working on a navy car. Was that you?

Yeah their great looking but not finished yet. Was going to put a little before and after thread on it as they were in a mess.
I looked up a good aggressive spacer (20mm) but I don't think paying 200 squid for them is worth it and the lesser spacers Woun't look as good so no point putting them on. On a different note I wired up the gauges (pressure and vacuum) right and the work and light up perfect. They look savage

Ah I was probably at soccer so if I wasn't there and he was, he was working on that when I left at about 7.30.
No the guy working on the car was a neighbour, refurbing his alloys on his Passat. The cheek of you thinking I'd drive one of those.... :)

Nice pics lads, cars are looking well. You still thinking of adding that little detail you talked about to the alloys? (trying not to run the surprise for everyone else).

Yeah they do, especially when their the only cars in the photos :smt079
I think this was the only meet (no matter how small) where all the FTOs had sunroofs!
