This is my Mk3 CL 3 door golf. I picked it up 2 months ago with no rwc or rego and looking very unloved! I am just cleaning it up for now and will probably use this as my daily get-a-round! It just passed RWC only needing a couple of small things and is booked in for rego tomorrow. While waiting to book it in for rwc we started to clean it up a little bit.
Here is the day that we picked it up!


The first thing we did was give it a bath and a polish!


And here is the bonnet half polished!

Next was the interior, we pulled out all of the seats and console to let us get to everything
Front before

Front after

Back before

Back after

Now that the car was clean, we started to re-do all of the black moulds outside of the car, they were all old and faded.
Masking the back

And painting the back


Back all done

Next we blacked out the front grill and badge and resprayed the front bumper and side moulds black. I am missing the front lip if anyone has a good condition one for sale please let me know!

The stock wheels look like rubbish so i stole some BMW bottlecaps off of my B/F`s car and started to paint them up for the golf!

The last owner of the e30 thought $2 matte black was cool so first we had to strip that **** off back to bare alloy

Next some primer

Then some colour!

And thats about it for now! I have some parts coming from the UK and a set of Coilovers to go on after rego. Once thats done, i will finish of the stereo and see what happens from there.
