ben offered to help give the wagon a 'quick wash' which soon turned into a claying and polishing session. I wasn't going to take pictures until i've played with the coilovers a bit more now that they've settled in... but the reflections in the afternoon sun made me reach for the camera anyway

lookign good toph, how you coping with ya pot holed road,
oh and lose the rear Golf badges and get a black VW one on there :wink:
-
Looking good.
-
looks great :cool: just wish id had the bottle to get a wagon :cry:
-
so it, i am looking at a 2nd one :grin: mk3 maybe :laugh:
-
hadn't thought of black rear badge.. like it though... wont be as simple as buying a black one off ebay though :undecided:
not feeling the grill really.. still have the original, and the recess is still in the bumper... i could get a bonnet from a breakers cheap.. ahh decisions.
pot holes were nervewracking on the way home.. but it coped fine. I've now gained two planks of wood to drive onto to leave room for a trolley jack.. the back was fully loaded in the picture of the front of the car.. 10mm spacers on the rears i think.
poncy photoshop effort

Nice! Looks great for a coffin carrier!
Are the CH's genuine or rep's, if rep's are they heavy and how well made do they seem?
Sam
-
they're replicas, they seem well made and aren't anchors.. finish is not as immaculate as genuine ones but passable.. i'll only kerb them anyway :grin:
-
Nice, split between CH's and LM's for mine, would have snatched yours for sale but the full run's put me off :laugh: Did you get them from ebay, do you know if they are all made by the same company or of a similar quality?
Let me know if you want to sell the LM's without rubber! :tongue:
Sam
-
i've had a few offers on the lm's already, think they'll be gone soon.. i'm told there are 2 manufacturers of them on ebay, not sure if one is any better than the other though
-
looking well nice toph :cool: :cool: fmic looks good to :wink: although you need a mkv rear aero wiper :tongue:
-
Agreed, looks very smart Toph!! Good work that man! :evil:
-
That looks the bollox mate. Keep up the good work. :cool:
-
what tint are your rear windows Toph ? - the time is near to do mine :huh:
-
Likin' it Toph :smiley:

Looks good apart from the grill, why does it have that lip on the bumper? WIthout that I reckon it would look awesomes.

because i wasn't going to wreck a genuine R32 bumper by attacking it with the filler! it covers the badge recess giving me the option to go back to standard grill... which im considering.
Tints are 15% chuffster
-
:afro: mate - found a place doing 20% so will plump for that, 5% is a tad dark :laugh:
-
just had a proper look as am on the laptop now toph looks :cool:

Ahh right, I don't know anything about the make up of MKIV bumpers so that explains it.

On your car mate 20% will be about right.. thats roughly what that photoshop i did for you was. I went just a tad darker because my paint is a lot darker than yours
-
yeah, think the 5% limo tint will be too much - got it down to £80 too :cool:
