I seriously can' wait to see your vr6 on the streets in Albury

Cheers man,your in Bright I see, Love the place,I got family there too.

Update:Hrs & Hrs of sanding...
All plastic's taken off car,They all need plastic undercoat before top coat.
Not to sure If im going to colour code all of them,side,front,back.
obviously Keeping the door plastics same colour as the car.

Steelies have a Fresh coat of Alpine White,was the colour of my last vr6.
I found 2trs of it in the shed,Should go sweet with the new colour.

Getting a Quote tommorro for the paint job !!

Front tow hook goes in where the dummy panel thing with the front indicators are if that makes sence, back on the drivers side rear valence, you can kinda see some gaps in it, slide that off and there you go (i think, haha)

[vdubin]

Cheers GoLfMan.

Stumpy,How faded is that !


What back wiper.


Getting closer now !!

Question:Tow hooks ppl with MK3's, where do they mount exactly & best place to buy one .

[GoLfMan]

I like progress....

[vdubin]

Ahh cool the same way mine will be done but only the wiper
I want to rep the VW badge !
Panel beater/painter & the old man are tackling that on monday.

Family mate said theres no need to undercoat the car & Just after I brought 4Ltrs of it !
will refund it during the week and 400 Grit paper is to ruff use 800 after ive done 80% of the car !
But you learn from your mistakes ...

"may as well shave the side markers and all, do it right the first time"
Im all about doing the job right the first time, but Im wanting the markers now Just dont want issues later on down the track.
