    That's pretty epic right there Edd... lovely shell and great to see all the wee clips proper retainer etc - you will be well pleased with that when done.... fit and forget type parts and prep! :)

    Enjoyed reading through this and all the detailled photos, keep up the good work !!

    It's almost like watching a how a Golf Mk2 is built, if they were hand built instead of production line :-)

    Take your time no need to rush it, when this is finished I can see it picking up pretty much every show and shine award possible! Astounding attention to detail! a re sprayed mk2 in red is perfect [:D]

    Best to split to remove flaps

    Airbox now done :)
    bit slow but wasn't happy with the foam I had and getting the right stuff took longer than I thought

    Old foam bits I had as can be seen on the flap to the top right ...was a cut and shut job :thumbd:
    [​IMG]

    New foam below
    [​IMG]

    Flaps all sorted :)
    [​IMG]

    Reassembled and clipped

    Happy with that
