Red Edition 30 waxed Up...
« on: 02 August 2009, 18:32 »
Havent posted any pics of my motor for a while with all its modifications.Hope you like them.

Have used Dodo juice, lime prime, orange crush, Banana Armour for the waxing. Megs Tech Wax 2.0 on the alloys which ive had those powder coated in "Boron" rather then the silver as standard. Car has Had lots of Carbon Fibre wraps fitted to various area's on the car to try and give it a more agressive look and stance.

Thanks for looking. :smiley:

I vowed never to go down that route, but yes bug has bitten and remap and possibly downpipe is next up. So jkm's phone will be ringing in due course!.

The wrap is very tough, infact is handling stone impacts very well, and absolutely no sign anywhere of impacts punturing the wrap, even though the notorious hard paint shell of vw's paint is bad for showing every hard arsed Fly!.

My only gripe with the stuff is when its stretched( ie Wing Mirrors) and has a tendancy to shrink back even though a heat gun was help stretch it when it was applied.Everywhere else on unstretched surfaces it still looks as good when 1st applied about 5 or so months ago.
