Baker i'm almost ready for you to 'finish' the estate. We need to have a chat (farmer is puttng a tap in the back of the unit for me )

Not a problem Ross, I have the time and the tools so just drop me a PM of text and let me know when your closer to the end............

This is going to look amazing hehe

Little modding on its bum..

Few little fiddly bits done and front seats are now in.

Back away from the *rse - Looking amazing, although it shows the difference between the rear bumper and the excellent paint job, very smooth

Few hours this morning, coming together now...

Cleaned about 2ins of crap out of the spare wheel well...

Then set about adding a bit of sound proofing

And the finishing touches to the externals, not all of them yet though

Going to pick something else up for it tonight, keep em peeled.

It is looking amazing

Big mouth look done properly! Looking very nice indeed

It needs some tints to finish it off though

It depends, tints can really reduce the view as well though, the windscreen will be replaced (insurance job, just waiting for the right time to do it)

What alloys will you be using?

Looking really good Ross

whats the bits? fogs n washers?

No idea - having spoken with Ross a little on MSN earlier, the xenon washer design seems to have changed (the ones on the front bumper I got shot off were moulded, the newer ones apparently are screwed on.

Plenty of hard work still going on, that's for sure.

Are you keeping the towbar to confuse people?

Love the look of the front.

Nope, the towbar is staying for practical reasons, I always wanted to have one on the vRS, and on the estate it has saved me an absolute fortune having a towbar. I know it is not considered sporty to have one fitted, but with the kind of power and torque, plus the Quaife and the clutch to take the torque without grief, it will be excellent as a pulling vehicle

I've just stumbled across this thread...and I'm properly impressed and more than a touch jealous!

Ross is doing an amazing job - attention to detail and workmanship is amazing

What alloys will you be using?

Just drove 140 miles to pick them up

it will be excellent as a pulling vehicle

Nice to know. Looking good folks.

Nah mate the headlamp washers have always been removable, shame they didnt survive (or at least one of them).

With regards to fogs, pah opened up and meshed so as and when if needs be there is space for a cooler or two maybe.

Well Jason had a few lasses draped against his mongrel - this one will pull differently I'm sure

Wheels looking ace - curious on the wheel centers now, the ones that originally went in there wont look right now though

Awesome work Ross and I am loving the front and rear end bodywork............

Great job Ross..... looking amazing. Can't wait to see pics of the finished product, detailed and job done!

i think out of all the cars that have featured in this section, this has to be the best thread so far. Very informative and very interesting, especially as ive seen both cars and now cannot wait to see the finished product in the flesh!!! well done Ross!!

deffo looking a proper good job the towbar has certainly been far to handy to get rid off
