Would anybody mind doing a photoshop for me with smooth bumpers and bumpstrips on my 9n please, as I think this is the next mod.

Heres a couple of pics, Feel free make improvements

sorry if i have ruined your car mate, lol
not exactly the best photoshop.

Not at all mate, thats wicked. I just wanted an Idea of how it would look. what u recon?

i think it looks great smoothed looks loads better imo.
i lowered it quite a bit too hehe

Should defintely get it smoothed though.

Yer I noticed! believe it or not it on Eibach sportline springs lol - you wouldn't think it would you. It will get lowered more at some point - but I'll get it smoothed early august hopefully. How much should I be looking to pay? any Idea? I was thinking around the £500 mark.

Just noticed the door mirrors lol. Might get them gloss black or something to match te tints

I thought it was lowered already.

I dont know too much about smoothing to be honest with you, but from what i have heard something around £500 sounds about right!
so worth it though for your car because it would look awesome!

yeah i didnt do a great job matching the colour of the car lol i was going to spend some time on it and get it exactly the same as the car. gloss black would be sweet though.

Nice one, cheers for you help mate, now just a case of waiting and saving,

The sides will be a pricy job if they're clipped on.

It means you'll need the holes welding and the majority of the side of the car spraying, that'll probably be £500 alone.

I was quoted 750 for the sides alone, but the guy i went to was a rip off, a guy on club polo told me the sides cost him 150 and he heard that was cheap so as you can see it varies greatly, shop around, it looks amazing, i want it done too lol

Bit of an old post. But yer I got a quote around the £1000 for complete smoothage. Still don't know what to do lol. Ended up getting the Air and leathers in the end. Wanna change my wheels next i think.

I think you made the right choices mate!!

Smoothing and colour coding would go a little too far in my oppinion.

Get some BBs RMs with a black centre finish to match your strips and it'll look the sh*t

colour code em yourself for a tenner

Thanks mate, I agree. Thinking mabee gloss black strips and mirrors and toying with the Idea of black centres BBS. Small and Wide RM's? or 17/18''s LMs with polished lip possibly?

As for self colour coding - I'd rather pay a professional. All my other modifications have been done professionally so wouldn't wanna mess it up now. Fair play if you can do it - I just don't think my Zero experience at bodywork would aid me much. lol.

Here's a pic if anyone fancy's photoshoping some rims for me seeing as we're in the photoshop section Need some inspiration guys. Would appriciate very much!
