Evening! It's been a while since I posted! It's not been a particularly good time either.

Two weeks after joining this forum I was rear ended (New years eve) The car was deemed a total write-off (totalled to the US guys here) however, I was allowed to keep the car and paid out for it.



The damage doesn't look bad but due to the age of the car, the insurance company wouldn't pay to repair it. 3 weeks later it was in the bodyshop and 4 days later I had it back. I had the damage repaired, a bit of work on the wing repaired and abit on the drivers door. To say I was unhappy is an under statment. A few photos of the work...

The scratches were not there when the car was dropped off:



Run in the paint and scratches in the filler



Filler edge on the wing



Scratches and filler in the wing



And I've also noticed that the rear panel is nowhere near straight. The car is going back on Monday for the work to be re-done.

On top of this, a couple of weeks ago I collected a US Westy front. These are INCREDIBLY rare over here in the UK so i'm really happy to have one! (Photo from the for sale thread)



And hopefully how it'll look (Photoshopped onto my car)



That's where I'm upto now. The car is currently off the road due to the MOT (UK annual safety test) having run out. Over the next 5 week the car will have the following:

New rear Axel bushings
New full exhaust
New headlight loom
New rear light loom
Get the West front on
Get the US bumper/indicators on

I'll update when it starts moving again!

looks good but the rear needs to go up a hair it just doesnt sit right

It does have slight rear rake, yes. I need a chassis notch to take the front down a little more and level it up.

The girlfriend finished her drawing of the golf last night.



Photo of the drawing does not do it justice!

This is the second thread in two days with mk2s with Ronal Teddy wheels. Oh my want.

I love this car.

Do you have a link to the other? *Nevermind, found it.

Looks good! Do you know the paint code for this color? It looks rather similar to my 85 westy golf color which is le5u/ice blue mettalic.

The colour is "Calypso Metallic" which is more of a green than it is a blue I'm afraid dude!

Thanks for all the comments guys!

Haha, silly wheels are silly. Did you ever pay the gf back?

Not exactly. She's pretty much a stay-at-home girlfriend. I work and pay our rent and bills so she isn't complaining
