wicked man i love that thats soo cool but for the moment ive just got a straight through bit instead of the centre box (it kept scrapping so :| but thats definately something id go for i had a pretty much identical one on my old polo lol how fun that was 2nd or 3rd gear engine breaking was an immense backfire pleaser
