hahah thanks mate!

well most of the car will be painted and it should be RWC will be done in the next 1-2 weeks...its too hot to paint atm... all i have to do it put it back together ones i get most of it painted. The bonnet and rear fenders will be in primmer for rwc because they need more work on them and i just don't ahve to time to fiddle around. but its coming together quickly as i have all the new parts too

can't wait to see it on the road...A LONG 4 YEARS!!!!

[16v_kid]

what paint are you using.....

[16v_kid]

ill tell you know what to use..Spies Hecker..BEST paint ever..it may be a bit more then otheres but this paint...you cant go wrong...its better paint then what they use on vw and audis.

we painted out golf like 5 years ago and its still mint...didnt even lose a bit of colour.

If you dont believe me ask the pros that use this paint.


cheers

its cool mate, my mates dad runs a paint shop i get the good ***** from them

its protec or something or rather.

i painted the windows bits today.. not happy with the colour TOO orange...needs to look more like that other bug i posted up... not what i wanted so i'm going to go and get it re tinted





^the paint needs a buff but i have to wait 24 hours...

should be put together this week...NOT going to paint the entire thing because i want it perfect and it will take me a lil longer to get it perfect (so it will be in the yellow primmer)...I will wait until after rego because at least then i can drive it to jarred's garage to spray it
