My clean rear end

Most of you know I had de badged the rear of my Polo for the 'cleaner' look. All that was left was the horrid bodged up wiper which worked occasionally. So I decided to do away with it. After removing the old unit I managed to salvage the bit of trim the went around the hole in the rear screen. I blanked off the hole, filled it in and painted it with a touch of satin black. I think for my first attempt at filling plastic is turned out rather well, the rear end looks super smooth now.

Expect social services around anytime to tell me not to use my three week old daughter as a polishing mop...lol

It looks clean i'll give you that, but its also a bit bland. Any more changes planned for the back like a spoiler or smoked lights maybe?

Looks really nice and smooh looking. I go the badges taken off mine but I decided to keepte VW badge, I knida like the look of it plus smoothing off the indent seems extra work.

looks good!
i think the reason why it looks bland is because you've completely blanked out your number-plate.
