It can be bought, as the Anniversary golf had it as standard, although be ready to dig deep! :lipsrsealed: I sprayed mine, and all in all it cost around £60 to do. You could use dye, which would be cheaper, however some people have had issues with it not colouring evenly :undecided:
Gearknob is from a Seat (which is says above the pic) :rolleyes:
-
What do you think about the forge gear knob ? Looks huge :undecided:
-
MEH!!! Scrap that - went out to my car this morning onyl to be greeted by some hideous scrapes on my rear bumper.... looks like some *ucktard has pulled out and scraped it..... looks like my money is going ona respray. :angry:
Emailed Chris @ waxamomo for a list bits i could you to try wetsand it out first...
-
so this is what i woke up to this morning.... pretty pis*ed off to be honest but what can you do eah?
Luckily the old man owns his own taxi frim so he gets discount at a bodayshop in newbury and there works spot on.. 120 for rear bumper re-spray ..

you can just make out the orange paint on the scratches.... i think its a giant orange van that delivers papers in the mornings to the local shop next to my house... Dam i need a driveway!
:angry: bad start to the day
-
Gooted about the rear bumper but a good re-spray price and u will still have change for a mod lol.
Not a total loss lol.
Some good ideas i might look in to myself on this thread.

I would be waiting for the van and having a good look round it ASAP

I haven't seen anything of the same colour for a good while now, I'm starting to think its an early morning delivery van or something - now the misses wants to go to Amsterdam for her birthday so I can't get it resprayed until next month :( but I guess I'll forget all about it while I'm over there :cool:
