ive been told to do this bloody thing!! ahhh... another topic for u all to write SH!TE on behave!! sorry about some of the pics, theyre off my bb so crappy quality, but will keep addin more as i go on, will try to keep em on the digi and not off the bb!! not so much done to Reddy as yet, just little things, needs a LOT more doin until im gona be happy!!

this is Reddy not long after i got him, all shined up and lookin lovely, with absolutely nothing done to him, except the kamei grill which my brother put on before he sold it to me



few rusty bits which have been sorted now


sh!tty tailgate which is rusty as fook, and ma brother pulled the boot handle off and stuck it back on with polyfiller, oh how clever, so got a new boot now just need to fit it, and have sprayed the vw badge black (not fitted yet EITHER)


haha.. my golfy stickers on my mirrors, good old ebay, gotta get some more cos got some sexy new wing mirrors, which havnt been fitted yet cos only just been  sprayed

so thats really it for now, got a lot more things i wanna do to it but first need the tailgate and new mirrors put on... havin a complete set of new locks, being lowered, colour coded bumpers, smoked back lights, smoked fogs&indicators, smoked side indicators, angel eyes, pressed plates, would really love new seats but cant c it happenin really... and a few other bits & pieces will keep updatin as i go along!

If you can't stretch to leathers then standard Gti interior is a nice upgrade from standard seats and won't cost much at all. Just keep an eye on eBay and the classifieds on here until something local pops up

Haha, be pretty hard picking them up in red but would definatly be worth it! i've got blue ones in mine, don't really match my pink wheels / engine bay changed my mind about so many things since the edition38 show this weekend

How long have you had the car? looks like you've got a fair bit done already! should look alot better once lowered

haha i knowww thought about havin brand new ones made but its a lot of money for an old sh!tty but beautiful car, especially when as i say, so much other stuff needs doing :/...
had it since about april but not done a great deal to it, know exactly what i wanna do but dont know how to do it myself, i wouldnt know where to start... i just buy everything, and dad puts it on for me he used to do up old minis all the time when i was little, remember him havin various other cars too, he loves it im not complaining!
