Good way to spend the bank holiday weekend! I ended up being nagged into sanding and painting the decking :brickwall:
Is it the same shade? It looks more orangey in some pics. Have you painted the standard spoiler black too? I have a spare black one so if the look takes off it's free to a good home :lol1:

Uber nice bud.

Oh to have all the tools of the trade..........

instead i have to make do with a garage and rattle cans !

GTW 01 September 2009 06:11 PM

cheers for the comments fellas... and after that 5 day outburst im still shattered. Grills going to be painted this saturday or one dinner time when i get chance. and its getting a flat and polish this weekend. Even more busyness bleh. oh and yeah its the same colour 22g, but tbh it was purchased from supertune, so the mix could be anything from light to dark lol. I still have about a ltr left just in case.

Im happy with it just cant wait to get my coilovers and wheels on this now :D

Oh and yeah, its a black roof with a black spolier, looks well tbh. I didnt want to go down the route of STI rep. So kept it smooth :D

Love the colour & finish :notworthy

Ours has been to have accident damage repaired twice in the past month and I thought it was looking sweet till I saw your pix.

Top job fella :thumb:

trails 01 September 2009 08:03 PM

loads of work but a great result...black roof looks very cool ;)

GTW 01 September 2009 09:02 PM

Thanks fellas :D Nothing better than putting in some graft and standing back and enjoying the results and getting goood feedback :D

Just been outside and spent the last 30 mins fitting some front speakers and giving it a wipe down. Filler dust everywhere lol.

chocolate_o_brian 01 September 2009 09:37 PM

Genuinely love that fella.

I thought I was a hero for refurbing my 205 GTi wheels a few months ago by sanding and preping them in my bathroom whilst spraying in my high tech Argos shed. :D Funnily enough the Mrs didn't appreciate my efforts so much :wonder: :lol1:

beef-on-the-bone 01 September 2009 10:57 PM
