lol I would, it was just a bed bath and beyond though. do you not have any around you? any places like ikea or maybe even walmart should have flexible cutting boards

Teaser with my lame point and shoot
the rears will have to be trimmed though because of the wheel well shape. Don't mention the *** tap, It happened yesterday and im waiting for insurance to take a look at it

thanks daz! wish you would post here more often (with pics of your car)
my car has been sitting in my driveway for over a month and finally I had some time and made progress. after an annoying amount of time, I got the turbo out and found out that it's a genuine (or at least stamped k/kkk) k04-015... I definitely didn't expect that at all especially since everything else is completely stock.. the shaft play is terrible compared to the k03s that I have and some of the blades on the turbine are chipped and I have no idea how many miles are on it. I feel weird downgrading to a k03s but whatever. I don't know too much about turbos so I'm not sure what else to look for in the blown k04 if I'm going to try to sell it or maybe even rebuild it first..
I'm replacing all the intercooler piping and turbo inlet pipe with black silicone ebay stuff. fitment isn't as good as oem but I'm not sure how well more expensive brands fit either. the quality seems to be good and pretty much the same as my friend's samco hoses though.
hopefully my car will be running tomorrow.. then finally I'll start working on the bags.
