My B5 passat... Not realy a build.

Every picture you took looks exactly like my car, the coolant everywhere, the dents, the scrapes, that damn low exhaust lol. Everything is looking good, I hope you clearance the control arms as clean as that picture

[LukeyBabes]

It was way to hot in England today to do any lowering or anything for that matter. I will try my best to make it look that clean. I do like to do neat work.

This is such a good thread. I reckon rock the bbs wheels

[LukeyBabes]

Lol thanks. That is the plan!

Did some polishing today. One of the 1.5 inch dishes.




My fingers cant take much more sanding!

But I have literally worn through the first layer of skin on the ends of my fingers. They are a bit raw.

They'll get used to it just as you finish your fourth wheel

[LukeyBabes]

I really do hope they harden up. lol.

[hinrichs]

hole saw works very well for those cuts, i learned that after cutting up my rain tray

[LukeyBabes]

Yeah that's what I was planning on using. Waiting for my mate to buy some to do his chassis notch. Then I don't have to buy them and I cant just nick his. lol.

[LukeyBabes]

Sooo, Bought a new exhaust, welded it to a bit of metal at each end to keep them in the right place. Cut about 20mm out of the upright bits and welded back together. Hopefully it still fits tomorrow.

Sorry I don't understand what you mean.

Well all the b5 owner's I know have had their bumpers off for one reason or another. Maintenance, modding, painting, ripped it off from being too low. Guess it was my failed attempt at humor.
