Looking great! Out of curiosity, what was it about the hydrodip that wasn't working?

it layed on great, i just didnt like there was no contrast between the black and dark brown. It looked a lot lighter in the online pictures, and turned out to be real dark brown in real life. looked off and boring to me.

Damn if you can maybe post a photo or two of the jetta I would love to see the progress.

Sucks about the passat that thing was cash money and those wagons are becoming more rare as the ones left are pretty beat.

all i have to post right now

its a lot further along. been keepin it kinda under wraps

[Dwob]

was not happy with the trunk, surprise surprise. So i changed it...again. ill let the pictures do the talking for now cause its late.





and a rare picture of me.









and when the door is opened, much better than before when everything was hidden behind the face. i lose a spare, but thats why ive had AAA. and will just throw a spare in the back seat on long trips.

waiting on vinyl and dynamat to finish it all, for now. I will also be smoothing all the inside corners with some filler before upholstering.








until next time

a random shot a friend took at the shop tonight, of another friends corrado

[Dwob]

almost finished with the top layer of upholstering. the gaps are not perfect, hopefully that doesn't bother me too much.









and another friend stopped by at the shop. static and forever breaking things because of it

[electricalbox]

Very clean trunk, its looking great!

[Dwob]

new kit arrived

[Dwob]

dead thread or not, ill keep updating. so i took the plunge today on the trunk duckbill.

started with trying the great stuff expanding foam method. didnt like how it was turning out, so went with my original method of making it out of metal. mind you, i started this at 6 today, then had to head back for dinner, so theres a ton of body work to do. but the bones are there for now. more work tomorrow.

[TimbOMFG]

Sod the "dead thread" bullcrap! Love the progression, and love the duckbill!
