oh my god, that's just impressive, looks like it's straight out of the wrapper, i really admire people that put that amount of effort into making an older car like new, i'll try my best with my mk2 but i won't get anywhere near your car mate.

p.s don't post anymore pics, you make the rest of our cars look bad lol

Well done mate, the finished product is perfect! Amazing attention to detail, cant believe how clean the engine bay is!

Just one thing that bothers me... why two foglights ?

Don't let it bother you too much Steve! Personal preference, I always think the single one looks lonely...

I'll be really happy once I get the couple of niggly bits sorted...one rad grill clip (still) missing, OS door handle needs replaced (with chrome insert type) and need the push on cover for the NS door mirror before I fit it.

All really small things, but when you've gone to this much effort, they really niggle
