Re: White MK3 Facelift
Cheers Stu! Yeah the camera picture is really good, will add a pic using tap in a minute. It's great and makes such a difference. I blacked the windows out using carbon wrap, it was easier to do myself than tint film, made a right hash of that tint film so out came the roll of carbon 3m wrap I had laying about. Worked really well. I also have blanks in the front so no seeing in the back at all. And it looks like tinted glass from the outside.
Can't wait on the brakes, doing them on Sunday.
Bright sunshine just now so harder to see on the phone cam. I can see my tow ball cover so reversing is so much better. Its in shade as it's really bright just now but you can see the car park lines in the pic.

Rear grille blanks are great - was going to do them black but the missus likes the way they are. Maybe later lol. I made the rear door wood panels myself from 4mm ply.

New brakes fitted, took 1.5 hours per side, all torqued up to factory values and new bolts throughout.
