Hi A few weeks after getting my RC I took off all the bonet lining to enable the vents to actually work & vent the hot air out and I've had no issues with water doing any damage & that was like 3 yrs ago. 8)

Cheers, Mark

scotty.... why do you want one :S....


if you know anyone with a supercharged 101 ask if they wanna swap.

ive seen a few gti-r bois swap with gti boys because they swapped to fmics, and they wanna be slightly more stealthy ^_^.

plus the bois with the gti's seem to love the bulge.. >.>
