[Godderz23]

Looks awesome luke, nice touches.

[Ashcroft]

Ah my badge lol!

Liking all the black mate. I always like the debadged look on the boot like loosing the gti but looking good mate.

Yes your badge :-p

Since I've put it on I've considered losing the gti aswell cos I think the smaller badge finishes off the boot so watch this space

Looks awesome luke, nice touches.

Thanks chris mate

How's the mk1 coming along? Will we see it at any meets anytime soon??

[6N2 GTI 00]

Yeah mate leather ftw! Its a nightmare on a hot summers day but in the winter its boss

The standard GTI seats are shocking to be honest so its either OEM leather or replace the originals

[Godderz23]

Still in bits, but I'm told on the road the end of April.

I hope anyway.

I just couldn't get to grips with the number 1 style seats with red door cards :-/ didn't like it 1 bit lol

What's left to do mate?

Looks good!

Thanks Mandy

Had a bit of a cleanin session with Michaela (Lloydiexx) yesterday so decided to take a few pictures















You would think the silver would come out like a mirror like the black does.

We was going to head to the moors for a few more photos but the sun was quickly disappearing

[6N2 GTI 00]

Very Nice Both cars look great

[Ashcroft]

Thanks Ben

Took us ages to wash them cos pressure washer was playing up we didn't even get chance to snow foam them

[6N2 GTI 00]

They still look great though mate

Did you get your sill sorted out?

[Ashcroft]

I used poorboys white diamond stuff you told me about, was really good stuff to use and it smelt soooo nice :p

no mate I havent done the sill yet I've decided to wait untill I get a full respray which I'm hoping will be very soon I just need to start putting money back, my exhaust and manifold will have to wait lol

[6N2 GTI 00]

Nice one Poorboys stuff is immense! best stuff I have ever used if i'm honest

How much have you been quoted for the sill repair dude?
Most places tend to charge £2000-3000 for a full respray (bare metal) that's for a top job

[Ashcroft]

the few places I went said between £2-300 and a few people i know who will paint it is at least £1000 so considering I'm gonna get a full respray someday I might aswell do it now and get all the imperfections sorted out

On another note my new hoodie has just turned up.

Banksy style design

Yeah £200-300 sounds about right for the sill
The difficult thing with Silver cars is getting the paint to match so I can see why you would consider a full respray, especially if you can get it done for a decent price
