I have spent alot of today cleaning the old girl and working on the swirls in the laccer, and its coming on nicley :)

Gave her two very good washing using my decent stuff, she came up nice but the laccer needs some TLC  :rolleyes:
Some might notice the missing R32 badge on the back i took it off to clean behind it :)








then I got to work abit later on when the sun wasnt beaming on my car and tired to work on this laccer problem. :undecided:
Best pic I could get of the the bad stuff, this is all over the car.  :lipsrsealed:

You have plenty of time for the detail.

In the meantime it does look bloody lovely. The stance is perfect. I want a set of those wheels for my 1.8T. (Or is that cheating?)

Good to see you got sorted after all of the hassle.

Looks like a good buy, glad you finally got one :afro:

I'm going to tidy up this thread to remove all the insurance arguing, it's irrelevant. If you're going to turn it into a build thread then I'll see if I can figure out how to split the topic in two from when you bought it and move one to dub rides if you want me to?

What did you use to correct the paint?
