Default Major vinyl removal

Iv had my 2nd scoob for about 3 weeks now and absolutely loving it! much more than my first one. I wasnt sure about the vinyls and eventually decided to take them off. I spent 2 days sorting the paintwork as it was a bit of a mess but the machine polisher did its job brilliantly! Looks like glass now the pics dont do it justice

Before








And After








Im loving it at the moment but im on the look out for some new wheels and a splitter and obv different indicators

Thanks

Looks alot better

I think you should remove the subaru of the back aswell. Also consider a pillerliss STI grill. Some nice 18'inch wheels with some lowering springs and you there

Keep an eye on the for sale section or check some of the breakers on fleabay. You will have get a standard STI grill for a bug and then remove the centre piller with badge holder. Should cost about £20-£30
