Lol thanks man! Appreciated!
Went out in the morning after leaving it on all night and it had bubbles a bit but i still had to scrub it off, so since it worked sort of i put it on all the other dishes and it all bubbled off in an our and came off really easy. Couldn't really understand. Think it where they were in the sun. So got it all off now.
Anyway. I cracked the file out and attacked the curbing. Came out great!
Before
After
Looks shinyer than it is. Need a polish up.
And here is some the pics i said about in the last post

As if we needed more pictures of the RS off the car. But here you go. lol.
Got them back from the machine shop earlier after having the bolt holes enlarged from m12 to m14. So now they will actually fit the passat.
I tried the faces on to make sure they fit.
Going to take them to the powdercoaters to have the centers and caps freshened up. Will just stay with silver.
Wound the coilovers all the way down for these pics. Still way too high!
Too high!!
Mudflaps might have to come off. lol. (still too high)
Needs to come down another 45mm or more. On air of course. lol. So the 58mm i lowerd it for these pics plus the 45mm i want more. Thats about another 100mm lower. And with the bentleys it was already 120mm lower than standard. HABut might not be able to get that far because of the subframe.
And to go that low i need to make some room for the upper wishbones to go higher!
They have already dented the strut from the ride height wit the bentleys! So choppy choppy
And im thinking a 20mm spacer up front. So it meets the arch.

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.

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.

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.

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.
