Nice motor mate, all about the smoothness on dubs!
-

to be honest I aint really sure how its all done, had all the work done by AUTOWORX in cardiff, i got a 2 year gaurantee so if its going to crack(and i hope it doesnt) it'll do it within two years...
-
how much did it cost if u dnt mind me asking
-
£1500...
-
:shocked:for the front bumper???????????
-
Well the side strip been removed too, that needs welding and no doubt the back has been done too, the bonnet has also been done, but I do agree that does seem like a large amount. I paid £500 to smooth my rear bumper, blend the bottom splitter in, smooth my tailgate, paint (not remove) my side strips, do my bonnet and paint my wing mirror bases.
But it does look good mate I got to admit!
-
if your gettin new rims i rekon bbs split rims will look nice
-
i am liking that mate :cool:
them RS4's would look good finished in matt black :cool:
-
NO... front splitter merged in to bumper, same with the back... also had all the bumper strips taken off and filled, the aerial smoothed off, spoiler plastic welded to get rid or the gap for the aerial, boot completely smoothed, bonnet welded(gap for the badge) also filled the gap for the badge on the front bumper.....badge-less grille fitted and mk5 mirrors fitted.... Complete re-spray..... all done in 9working days..........
-
Looks fly :cool:
Any pictures of the back mate?
I think if you get yourself some wide wheels and get it slammed you're on to a winner :smiley:
-
where did you get your Mk5 mirrors from?
-
I'm not a fan of modified cars but it does look rather nice, some black alloys would suit it well. :)
-
In my opinion you want to get these wheel and it will look orgasmic

Not cheap if you get the proper ones tho :(
-
BBS Le Mans...........wheel porn. But as Aland says, not cheap or even close to being cheap
worth it though :cool:
-
These would look brilliant.

Jesus that seems a bit steep for the bumber, ive seen whole r32 kits for that :huh:
looking good though, what grill did you get? and does it have the infill bit for the bonnet or did you get
that done properly?
-
it wasn't just the front bumper! each individual exterior part has been changed... even the spoiler as been filled... and the grille is a bonrath one! came with everything! but i suggest getting the bonnet welded! the infill looks a bit :sick:
-
sweet wipe my friend lol although its a lil to smooth for me but hats off to you fella stunnin none the less lol :cool: if u havnt got any wheels yet take a look at my wheels thay look stunnin on red mk4 like that were make to go on red alown lol
-
was it big hassle getting the bonnet welded and how much? i was thinking of getting a bonnet from the scrappy and doing that way!
-
was no problem... looks much better than an infill!
-

like you say mate it defo needs the wheels, its gaggin for a nice set of black bbs's with chrome lips, shame the infill on your boot lid isnt smoothed in dude, very very nice ride though indeed
-
I am seriously loving that front end :cool:
I defo think that black wheels would work best to sort of go with the grill and slats in the bumpers
-
