So the next job was to fit my second Maxton front lip on the car, I bought another just before Christmas but was waiting for the weather and the time to fit it, properly this time
so was perfect timing to get it sorted.
So off with the grill first of all...
Then the bumper, it was fairly straight forward, a lot of screws and bolts, then had to disconnect the washers and a couple of connectors.
Removed I then proceeded to put the Maxton lip into place, using pretty much the holes that were already there from the first time, but with the added few and using the nuts, bolts and washers provided with this one and the other, just to make extra sure this time
I did add a couple more closer up on the edge, but it does fix on with the original screws to the under trays as well, so when it’s fitted, that will secure it as well.
All fitted and bumper cleaned in the nooks and crannies while it was easier to do as well.
So while the bumper was off I also set about adding my DTUK tuning box I had before I got the car
but was waiting a while and insurance renewal to fit it, so it was declared on renewal, so was an excuse to fit it as well.
Also something I have had for a while was the Pipercross replacement air filter, which was recommended on the Golf groups, but will eventually swap it for an induction kit in the future all being well.
Bumper all back on along with the grill, so have it a quick spruce up and dressing, DTUK box tucked behind the airbox and battery.
You have to plug it in down the bottom of the engine, boost sensor, so it was easier onto get at it while the bumper was off, still fiddly though as the connector just wouldn’t release, got there in the end.
Front bumper and lip now fitted, all clean apart from the exhaust tips I forgot about on this day.
