My White GTI

Post by dan_9n3 »

Ok so picked car up last week, got a good price on the Swift and px'd for the Polo for just under 11k, car had just over 10 000 miles, one lady owner & FVWSH, very impressed with the car all around, interior, exterior, drive, build quality. The list goes on.
Finished cleaning out the garage the week before so it was perfect to chuck it in there for a detailing session before it gets filled up again with more poope.
Ive always used poorboys products and probably now swear by it, so did all that, jet wash, 2 shampoos, clay bar, shampoo, SSR1, polish x2, Glaze x2, EX-P x2 & wax x3. Paint was in ok condition but had been battered abit by the looks of sainsbury's retarded car washers and petrol garages. The detail soon brought it up to its former glory but i cant say im any detailer.I should of really done a step by step guide but this alone took about 11 hours.

Two days later i was up @ Tuningwerkes to colect my milltek off of Ruben, Ive used him in the past and he is very competitive on prices with other companies. Ill be back in the near future to purchase my coilovers amoungst other parts. Took the milltek home, fitted that along with some gloss black B pillar trims.
