Oh wow, that is very sexy looking! On the contrary, I think you need to post moar pictures

Finally got my hands on a strong enough bench grinder to polish stuff. Had to buy it though. Tried one after the one i had which was 250 watts and still wasnt strong enough. Had to buy a £50 375 watt one from screwfix.

Anyway, Pictures.



With the first compound





Then with the finishing compound











Sorry about the amount of pics lol

[LukeyBabes]

Thanks guys.

I love the Bentley wheels, and the brown interior. Good work.

amazing Shine on that Lip !

Desided to try and polish the dishes myself so bought myself some compounds and mops. Managed to sand one dish today and borrow my friends bench grinder.
But it isnt very good. It just stops when you try and put any pressure on the mop. Its only a 150w one. So if anyone would let me borrow a more powerfull one i will be very grateful???







Managed to do a bit of polishing before i gave up because it stopping was annoying me. So this finish is with like no pressure on the mop.

Great Rims, i like the Blue Interior over the Black and Orange.

the Rs's are looking Clean as Fuck !

Thanks. lol. But the blue interior was just the headlining and standard seats. BORNING. lol

Nice work! I like the new headliner and pillars.

Thanks dude. Goes better with the new seats.

Nice work Luke!! Totally look forward to the RS's going on!!

Its bizarre ive never met you or seen the passat IRL even though you live like 20 miles from me!!

Thanks! I really cant wait either! Haha you live in exeter don't you? I don't normally venture that way.

Got my centers back from the powder coaters. Should of asked them to mask up the mounting surfaces. Does anyone have a good and easy way to remove powdercoat neatly? Or am i gonna have to scrape it off. Dammit.







3 out of the 4 centre caps have a bit of a shit finish on them so im gonna take them back to be redone. I am fussy. lol. Looks worse in real life than below.

[LukeyBabes]

I a boot lid on ebay while looking for some new wings. And it was adviticed for £25 brand new and painted from vw never fitted.
So i bought it. Sent and got it. And didnt check it over cuz i was in a rush. (mistake). The paint is awful on it! In the picture below it looks ok but along the bottom the paint is all thin. There all shit in the paint, Runs in it. and 2 dents! And there is red paint underneath the blue. So not brand new. So i got in contact with the dude and i got a tenner back . Couldn't be arsed to take it back anyway. Ah well. Its a bit better than my one at first glance anyway. But will get it re-sprayed anyway. But then i could of done that with mine!



Anyway spent a few hours washing my car today with all my new cleaning stuff! And i **** myself. Cuz now im into cleaning it will have to be spotless all the time! lol

After that i finally got round to spraying my centre caps for the bentleys as they were tatty!







I NEED new wings. Might go bodyshop tomorrow and ask about spraying a few bits.

[LukeyBabes]

Headlining done!



Dunno what to do next now. lol

[LukeyBabes]

Well a guy came to swap headlinings today. So now i have a standard headlining to mutilate!

Bye bye old.



Hello new. Got a few bits of trim sprayed up.



And covered all the pillars. Maybe this modification will add some resale value instead of destroying it. lol.
