First time buffing results
« on: 28 November 2010, 16:26 »
Had a go at buffing up the VR first attempt at doing any buffing apart from a few scrap body panels I had sitting around.. Its going for paint so wasnt that worried about messing it up. Took my time so was at it on and off the last 3 days. Well happy with the end results dont get me wrong its not perfect but it'll do for now..  C & C welcome.







First attempt at a 50/50 know its not the best but you get the idea.

Cheers lads. really enjoyed doing it.

Dont know whats up with the rear wheel in that pic it looks well messed up in that pic but its fine.  Going for paint as there a few wee dent and stone chips I want sorted out have new bumpers and stuff to fit as well.
