jobs for 2day and tomorrow(now with pics)
« on: 12 April 2009, 08:54 »
iam goin to be painting a few bits in satin black.

1. the front and rear spliters(standard gti one`s)
2. mirror casings and they suffer from stone chips
3. front vw badge
4. rear vw badge
5. lower front grills (all 3)

i will grab a few picture as i get on with them . 

also wot else are people doing to the cars this weekend ???

all in all should cost £25-£30 for the paint etc and a fair few hours of my time lol but sure it will look sweeet as a nut  :grin:

thats like 3 questions...... :tongue:

easier to unclip the grill to aid removal of the badge

i'd remove the bumper and mask up the painted section and then just spray the lower splitter
