time for a update!

Post by kc »

update time!!!

not updated this for a while so thought i would

first set of pics are the mass cleaning night we had before edition38, take one empty warehouse, some red bull and a camera, and before you know it, a half professional photoshoot is taking place haha

the other car is my mates golf, euro'd, smoothed anything you can smooth, mk5 boot handle, slammed on JE Design 18x9s... suprising thing... mapped diesel, 200bhp and 300lb torque!

here are some pics

during cleaning - we got bored so took a few...

Image

then the lights got turned off lol ... mood shots

Image

Image

Audi S8 providing some light! what a beast that is to drive!

Image

Image

this pic was taken 40ft up on a forklift haha

Image

one from silverstone! after trax!

Image

then somewhere inbetween E38 and Trax, i had my black roof put on! this was supposed to happen a week before E38, but they had a last minute rush job to do for a contract so cancelled on me :(

so here she is at the minute, nothings changed under the bonnet, just black roof, mk5 gti shark fin arial, satin black roof (vinyl), satin black front badge

shot of roof, better pic next...

Image

another shot of the roof, shows the matt better, also shark fin arial, ooo also me, reflected in the window! stood on the neighbours wall haha

Image

a better view of the roof, shows a really clean cut, done the bit on the spoiler too as thought it would look better!

Image

Image

shot of a 'clean' interior lol - also some might notice the puddle lights, that came on early 9n2 polos, i hated the reflectors that much, i fitted my own, cos vw were so tight not to fit them lol!

Image

couple of better shots of the puddle lights!

Image

Image

and for you detailing lot, some beading! woop!!

Image

happy reading guys, will update when i get some new gear!
