Re: Mk3 money pit
Thanks mate
Yes the lights are terrible making it look very orange/yellow to be honest I haven't seen it in natural lights myself cant wait, still got a few hours of flat and polishing left plus around 20hours building everything up as we stripped everything to get a factory fresh finish. Still on the hunt for some wheels but funds will be a little low after paying the bodyshop,haha, never mind you get what you pay for in this day and age I suppose.

Re: Mk3 money pit
Had the van back from body shop today along with all the bits and pieces that went in for texture just got a huge job now over the weekend putting everything back together, Im very happy with the finish it is flawless in every way , Should have my BBS alloys tomorrow so they will be going in for paint to as they are genuine split rims so I'm going to paint the centers in viper green to, starting to feel the paint now worked so many hours trying to get customers vans ready whilst do bits and organize all the parts for mine im officially dead on my feet.
