RS4 Carbon Airbox and PAS

Post by **A20LEE** » Sun Jan 18, 2009 1:56 pm

Got all the carbon bits on now, looks much better than a standard bay but think as i get better at carbon wrapping i may revisit and improve them. I'll post more pics once i get my hands on a Passat cover and carbon lay that and think i'll replace the header tank as suggested by Virdee now i know its not meant to be that colour! Hmmm, wonder how difficult it would be to do the horrible grainy slam panel

Looking good Lee.

Get the Passat cover done to finish it off, and the obligatory new expansion tank!

Mike - I'm waiting in anticipation on your new bits!

And you did all that work for parts that go under the bonnet that only you will see? Talk about self indulgence

Fair play to you though, I justdon't have time for any of that!

My latest carbon bit, the passat cover for the passenger side of the engine. A very tricky bit to do but my best yet and made sure the weave is going in the same direction as the factory carbon.

should imagine 3hours per part, the passat cover was probably 4-5hrs.
