A little teaser of whats going down at my place

[BLN355]

Started today, going to take my time but hopefully have it finished in a week.

Might see if I can figure out how to fit my HP intercooler too while the front bar and lights are out.

Ooh looking good! Can't wait to see the end result.
Are you doing this yourself?

[BLN355]

Yeah mate doing it myself. I am in the industry though so makes things a little easier having done a few before.

the whole car, or just certain panels ?

saw a white polo gti with a black hatch, looked awesome

[BLN355]

Whole thing minus roof and wing at this stage. Should look nice once the windows are tinted 5%

This POLO GTI is mind blowing Nick.....

Looking interesting, can't wait to see the end result. Are you going to blacken the VW badges and get a nice set of black wheels?

Thanks mate.

Yeah i'll probably plastidip the badges, not sure if i'll go matte or gloss black yet. Im pretty set on some wheels but they only come in matte graphite which is a very similar colour to the vinyl so it may look a bit odd. For the time being i'll probably put my bbs reps back on and see what it looks like.

since your in the industry, roughly how much does it cost to plastidip a set of 4 x 15" rims ?

[BLN355]

Im a signwriter, never used plastidip sorry.

Couple more pics from today, did the bonnet and rear bar.

Brave move, but it does look good. I saw something similar when I was looking at cars a few months back, a matte grey Hyundai Veloster. Mind you, when I actually saw one on the road, it was an overcast day, and it nearly disappeared in the gloom - apart from the DRL's.

Is there any licensing/insurance issues with the colour change, I wonder?

All you have to do is notify the RTA and your insurance company that the colour of the car has changed and you're sweet.

Wow, didn't think this would suit the polo but its looking pretty awesome! Would be nice to see it in person though!
