fuuuuck yeah!

that looks hell. i like it much more without the flares

i reckon if you coudl space out the rear just a touch so it was more flush that would just be it!

can't wait to see it man, we definitely need to get photos (except mine is going to look like the biggest p.o.s next to it)

Haha cheers brad. Ronals weren't really gonna go on but I had them sitting there and adapters already so got tyres thrown on. They aren't an ideal fit but will do for now to get low on. So probably won't spend money making them fit nicer as I have other wheels I'd rather spend the money on

Isn't as tidy as it looks in pics. Guards are ruined from flares / adhesive and fender rolling. Need to get some bodywork done but definitely liking it more without the trim!

Keen for white 4 door pics!

[Surfpig]

i know what you mean by the guards being ruined, mine are exactly the same from the same thing.

it was a totally different car when i saw it at my house last, come a long way man.

Today I got the final piece to the o2j swap. Ordered a reverse light switch suited to many 90's seats and potentially older transporters / cabriolets.

Anyhow allows me to replace the reverse sensor in the o2j tower and use my factory plug. (Most people cut the plug out of a mk4 and solder it in) this way I don't have to chomp up my wiring.

Attempted to install my new reverse light switch. As I screwed it in the hex part snapped off the thread! Stupid cheap eBay part that wasn't even cheap... Getting the snapped off out was a nightmare.



Gave the bay a quick degrease. Still needs a lot of work / repainting.





And a shot thanks to rayray086

Been working on these bumpers. Want to take my time with them so I can get them right but end of the day this is pretty much my first attempt at bodywork.








All plastic welded in place and then fibreglassed for added strength. Went way overboard on the front though and now going to have to sand it all down.

[veedubMK3]

Wow that's awesome dude! Shaved bumpers are amazing

[Poonmobile]

Loving this build thread! So want a Heckblende!

[KI11Z]
