Joe_vrs_tdi...rolling on steelies! Smooth as a....

[devonutopia]

Nice.  Looks pretty good even before the flatting and polishing.  Does the place use an oven to ensure the paint is properly dry before flatting?  Because I have no oven if I need to flat back any fresh spraycan work, I leave it about a fortnight to properly harden.

Looks great Joe, can't wait to see it all back together

[joe_vrs_tdi]

Yer sprayed and baked in the booth. Looks better on photos its slight orange peel in the right light but will be all good after the flat back and polish.

Cheers dan and Charlie.

Looking good pal !! What colour u goin with the wheels?

[joe_vrs_tdi]

Silver again, I nearly went goldy brown centres but I like the clean look to much.

Coming along nicely, Joe.

[joe_vrs_tdi]

Cheers jay. Yours all back together now?

[Titanium_Man]

Nah not yet :( I started a new job this week which has naturally taken priority. Hope to be at it this weekend though.

[joe_vrs_tdi]

Had the car back today and took it straight to my old mans factory and fitted my psb front wish bone rear poly bushes. Was going to seal the new paint but the car got stinking on the way and couldn't really give it a good wash there.

Anyway a quick photo.

Will get some good quality pictures as soon as I can.

Smoothed front bumper! Looks fantastic did you give up on the gt bumper idea?

[joe_vrs_tdi]

Yer I was never 100% on it and kept playing on my mind so I thought against it and my brother said he would have a go at smoothing mine and have the gt as a back up. I liked the idea of having the mouth abit bigger than normal as well and matching the fog vents. I thought of it before so thought now was the time to try it and have it smoothed but slightly different from the rest. I'm actually unsure on it still though as I don't like change and takes me awhile to get used to it.

[Dark_Hero]

Yeah I like how it looks being the same size as the fog surrounds, the others look a little odd to me.

Will be good to see how it looks without the front plate

[joe_vrs_tdi]

When I picked it up it wasn't on there and I just kept thinking "there's something missing" lol. Need a few things done still to finish it off but I'm happy. Need new wheels for the next big purchase though I think.

[mattvrestate]

More pics required!!

[joe_vrs_tdi]

I'm going to Krispy Kreme meet in Bristol tomorrow so will snap some better ones there. Help me find some nice wheels Matt at a decent price and fitment. I feel like a need something abit more showy offy, the steels look really boring to me now :(

[Dark_Hero]

I know that feeling Joe, never know what wheels to go for

[joe_vrs_tdi]

Few half decent pics from today's meet.

And me and my mates fellow banded steeled polo

Very happy and had some nice comments to which was nice. My brother was happy when I told him after he put so much effort in to it, really lucky to have him and I would not of got this done with out him (well not for the same price ) so a big thanks to him.

Looking really good now joe. A lot of time and effort gone in to this which you can see. Front bumper does look good especially with no plate there.

[joe_vrs_tdi]

Not as nice as the Astra I was in the other day when I seen you lol.

[Dark_Hero]

That looks stunning Joe your brothers done really well. Could you pm me with the cost?

[Phil-J]

Looks really good joe!

How will this bumper affect the performance with regards to the fmic going from a wide mouth to effectively a standard type bumper? Looks lovely by the way I'm looking forward to seeing it next Monday at the rolling road day
