Looks like a top quality paint job  :cool: :cool:

I also love where you've put the rear numberplate! This is the money shot for me:

Cheers everyone.Im very happy with the outcome so far.
Got a few bits i need to get.
Gutter roof trim clips
Side trim clips etc

Also found i need 2 new rear boot struts as that tailgate is heavy and one of the bodyshop lads was working underneath it when one of them blew out and the boot bonked him on the head! :evil:

Also as the rear numberplate recess i welded into the bumper is off a mk4 golf i have the numberplate lights too but i never got the bloody plugs to go in them.So need to find someone breaking a mk4 golf i can pinch the plugs off :grin:

Think i might drop it another 20mm either tomorrow or tuesday after work.

Are those the standard door handles? May have to spray mine up if they are, they look good!
