looking good. paint those drum black tho, please?

LOL!

lots of effort going in there - what you going to do with the rear number plate - is it lit at all at the moment? have you considered the TVR style back-lit ones, MOT pass and very bling.

get some better pics of the front - it's not doing your car justice yet! rear bootlid looks like a good job was done.

you're spending a lot eh!? top job

cheers dave

going to wash it and get some better pics later....

as for the drums..... lol. i got bored!

im going to paint them black when the car gets lowerd etc.

as for the plate.... thanks for the advice! i didnt think of that! how much do they cost roughly?

still got much to do...... so far as you see it.... it has cost me 1600 quid! bargain!

all body work etc done by myself and painted by a local guy.

cant wait to slam it! damn!

mitch

was it a favour or is he genuinely cheap? where you based? give him a plug here!

not sure on the TVR thing, not too much I think - 60 quid? easier than a recess. your polo will look complete when the plate is moved - but that's just my opinion, you make like it where it is.

fk coilovers seem like a good bet for you then. did you get any arch work done, and was it a shell respray or just outer panels?

good work

Yeah man, lookin' gooood. How about a weld-on bad-boy eyebrow rather than plastic? They always look way better.

Good stuff!

Cars looking good & only half done eh?

Keep it up!

thanks guys

dave..... im in leicester. as i said... the car as it is cost me 1600-1700 quid as it is... and thats including the car!!!!!

the re-spray was 700 quid.... good mate of mine... but thats his prices really.

it was a full paint.. i stripped the car compleatly.... only thing left was dashboard and drivers seat. i removed everything else. paint inside and out.... engine bay is matt black with polished rocker cover and other bits.... just finishing the engine off now......

i'll check out the tvr style plate....

so far so good..... and hopfully a whole lot better when finished!

tonight im going to try and get most of the boot finished......

im still making my fibre glass door pods..... and still thinking what to do with the rear door cards... i might fibre glass them too and put 2 10" subs in them!

i'll keep it all posted....

if anyone is interested in bootinstalls.... fibreglass work etc... gis a shout.

as for the paint...... let know if anyone is in need of a paint job. mine cost 700 and that was a full paint job.

regards

mitch

where are you from

damn that's cheap!

im in leicester dave

mitch

can you give me a quote for 2 dents popped out in the bonnet. there about 3-4 mm high and in a patch around 15mm round where the suspention struts hit the bonnet as i forgot to fit the brushes.

the body shop round the corner from me quoted £250-300 depending if they can get a 100% match on the paint. as a parrently there are 4 different shades of chegall blue.

where abouts are you mate?

i can get my mate to look at it for you if your near by.......

i did the same on my corrado.....

mitch

Clean it

Looks nice mate.

i wish i could wash it!

local tesco jet wash has packed up.... and i aint taking it through a car wash!

finally got my boxes made up for install.... should get it complete and ready to trim by sunday....

just got my materials for re-trim, so mum is going to be busy this weekend!

mitch

Bucket and sponge
