Summer Wheels are back on! (and so is the spoiler :D)

Post by alexperkins »

Well, the time has come to restore my car to its former beauty.

There are more pics to follow, but I cant move it till the glue dries!!

Got the RX2s out from storage, and spend 3 hours shining them up - they turned into this:

I refitted the spoiler earlier. This is how its looking now lol (it is there, under all that bubblewrap and clingfilm - reason being to stop the moisture getting to the glue :D

So the car is nearly complete for GTI Spring Festival :D

Er, maybe you should engage your brain before posting :roll:

Read Alex's sig and it says;
2000 VW Polo GT1
It's not a GTI, it's a GT1. It's pretty obvious. And your first post on here is to criticise someone's car, well done.
