Yeah just found it in the autojumbles, got lots of plans but not much cash at the mo lol. Bit of colour coding etc going on as we speak and then rear arches rolled and some attention to the paint work. I've spotted some rims I fancie but more on the that if and when it happens. Oh and polishing the rocker cover too.

Lookin sweet, do your indicators flash red like that then? I'm guessing it's tinting spray?

where did u get the wiper blank :o and that song any compalation cd its on or any good compilations with that kinda tune on??

Edited by polo-man

Did you do the handle yourself? Top job, looks good :thumbsup:

yer just painted it all myself with rattle cans, gave a good colour match which I was well impressed with. The lights are quite red when they flash which isn't soo good so its got me um'ing and ar'ing wether to change them back and get 6n2 lights insted will be the long term solution.

I'm pretty sure the tune came off a "hospitality" cd, got off my mates laptop, they do tonnes of cd you can buy in hmv or virgin, pretty sure theres a free hospitality podcast too which is dam good.

Wiper blank was yer the old plastic plate from the wiper filled and sanded to remove the hole, bad news is the filler has sunk a bit in the hot weather (wow lol) this weekend so will need another skim and a respray, nevermind it looked good a santa pod today.

Finally an update for this. Fitted a mk3 golf GTI interior about 3 weeks ago now but just got round to posting up the pics, a hell of a lot nicer than the poverty spec crap that was in there before and nice easy fit (within reason lol). Also polished up the rocker cover finally, needs a bit more work and then some colour detailing, more to come on the engine front. And new aerial to tidy things up.
