  • Shes back in at last sooo happy with how she looks :) hope this pleases a few people lol

  • i know what you mean with the filler mate i do it myself, i tend to do it more when weather is a bit cold so it goes off quicker but i hate it when your just in the middle of a skim and it sets it pis

  • Can't wait to see it once you've got it all finished, paint job looks brilliant you've certainly got skills, are you bringing it to the Polo Show

The bay looks mint. Also when you took the doors off to spray them was there much wiring that needed taking off and was it easy to get the doors off?

boot build looks tidy =D maybe sort out round the rear strut turrets though as youve just cut it off at angles lol so it looks a bit odd!!!

also are they mk5 rear door cards??? and i hope your staying the baby blue!! creme was done by your mate so stick with the blue in my opinion

  • Author

yeah boot aint finished yet still alot to do and yes the blue is staying

looking good mike, paint the centre of the splittes teal :D

Stunning! I've got all they joy of welding my porka chairs in tomorrow! Love the bay contrast, really rate what your doing, can't wait to see it finished and meet you at a show to shake your hand! after you win best polo of course...
