so... i have my weekend sorted,
get this Rclick flip key coded to my car at vw gonna go tomorrow to do it probably have to book it in, may try and pull some strings see if i can get it free as a mate used to work there,
the key-less door handles which are a plus and the paint to color code them il get some lacquer too i reckon 3 coats of each primer, paint and laquer will do,
and my old fog grills cause the guy i bought fogs off is only down the road and gonna drop em off tomorrow,
just in the middle of messaging my other mate to see if he can fit my genuine already colour coded GTI spoiler on too
man those fog grills need a good clean

there is a guy who lives behind me who has a mk 2 golf the car itself is fooked it hasn't moved in a year and 8 months i doubt its taxed as its off road in our shared ally driveway, the car is in such bad condition its unreal its not worth a thing even the tyers have depleted and the cars sitting on its rims and a thin layer of rubber ... BUT its has polished VW castalettes i think in 15" they need a good clean up but that's it there no curbing or anything from what i have seen so i am going to ask him tomorrow if i can take em off his hands, havent got a clue how much to offer though? anyway fingers crossed
tomorrow fogs are being fitted

Halfords flash red is more like burnt orange when it dries

VW red is the only one that matches

Get it done by your mate for sure.
I'm all for DIY, but leave spraying out of it!
