[velly_16v_cab]

tried the white plate but cant get the texture right.. ill take the badges off and the rear plastic and take a photo for real and see how it is

BTW is there holes that the badges clip into or is it just adhesive?

wabit

they are holes mate, two in each badge

[WABIT]

Lose the mk2 spoiler and duckbill it you know you want to

[Jarred]

mk 2 spoiler doesn't quite fit, not atm at least. duck bill is def good.

stance looks phat, but we need side on shots!!

and If you do weld up the holes. make sure you weld on enough metal so that you can grind it back heaps, this will make it easier to skim with bog and better end result. Trust me I learnt the hard way.

those front wheel are a snug fit NICE
mk2 spoiler will look the part when the bumpers on
hope its tuff coz its guna scrape
when do you start on the front repair
got to be the most painfull area to repair

[WABIT]

ohh yeahhh its double sheeted and the rail is there.. i gotta weld on washers and slide hammer it out... then shape.. bog and prime ready for paint

took the car out before... (naughty me i know!) and it doesnt scrape at all!!!

im gonna roll the lips, pump and the guards out slightly too and prob bring the wheel out just abit more

btw i already had 2 duckbills and 1 LS spoiler and they all snapped on gutters... at least this mk2 one is very very flexible!!!

as for mounting it... being flexible it fits perfect... gotta make diffrent holes though but all good

Should have gotten you to fix my front end then! mines a mess atm, Im just hopeing it'll look half decent once it's done. One day I'll get a new front, prob when i get a new engine!
