Arriving home:
Pics:
And tried HDR photoshop :\
Update time!
Firstly, central locking is now all wired up and working with my alarm .. can't leave my keys in my boot though, otherwise it'll all lock after 30 secs lol
Then i put my new matts that i got for crimbo
Next up, was new discs and pads that i got for crimbo, my calipers were holding the pads on one side, so only had half breaking
Went to the scrap yard on and after searching and searching, didn't see a Polo. Luckily a friend saw one up top
So grabbed the bits that i needed.
- A set of Genesis/GT Clocks (adds Rev counter and clock)
Sorry for the pic quality. We managed to work out how to change the mileage to the correct one. So got that sorted.
- Centre console, mine didn't come with one. It needed a clean up and a new gaitor, but that'll be sorted.
- Also grabbed the Scuttle Panel, as mine was snapped and held together by tape
New vs. Old
And thats it!
Going to do some Red detailing inside, and on the look out for some Renault 5 Mirrors. To stop the 'Mickey Mouse' look lol

Re: Daniel's Polo Coupe
Update:
Started work on the Arch rolling and flaring today! No more poke (well abit but shh )
Up she goes
Original arch
It's Hammer time!
Half way
Good as we can get with a good old panel beating weight
Grind off the paint
Filler, and how we left it for the day, Managed to do both sides though.
Got a couple more skims of filler before my farJ is happy, But nearly there, hopefully tomorrow we'll be ready for paint
