Progress is looking good, what colour is it going to be?

It will be the darkest shade of LA9V brilliant black metallic.Rare colour on the mk3 so i decided to keep it.

The engine bay will get done when the engine is ready to go in.
As im going black and cream inside i had a small incling that i wanted to have the engine bay cream once i had smoothed it.But that may change by the time it's ready to go in

this is all id use out of that lot


you got stuff their you dont need

Grit guards waste of time if using snow foam
Black hole is pants, only decent with a DA and you should not even need it on fresh paint

jetseal 1O9 is a must
