Are you rolling or spraying?

Rolling, had a little PM sesh with Dmonday and looks like that'll be the best way.

This is gonna look really good when it's done.

Way better than the monochrome harlequin.

I hope so. A nice darkish grey would be a nice finish. I need to do some rust removal first though, I wouldn't be painting it until April/May time, but ideally want to get the rust sorted asap.

Nice to hear your rolling. Was going to do that before I opted for the respray (I kinda wish I had rolled now and done it all myself, but oh well)

Hope to see you at JKM mate :)

I should be coming to JKM Sir Alex.  :kiss: Won't be in my whip though. Rust repair is my major thing at the moment. Along with MOT middle of March.

I'm hopefully going to get it into my mates garage this weekend as I want to lower it another cm, and have the front end a tad lower than the back to give it more stance (currently it's sitting straight). I also have a noise coming from the rear which I'm guessing is the exhaust knocking against the rear axle, want that sorted too.

Along with changing the blue LEDs to green ones in my clocks and potentially getting a GTi spoiler, this weekend is going to be pretty busy.

Sounds good. I especially like the lowering bit.

Exhaust knock ftl, ITS REALLY ANNOYING.

Yep, I have played with it a few times, but after lowering the car more I just give up. Got more important things to do on the car when I got time.
