Got the polishing done finally, what a job! My hands are so sore because some places needed to be polished by hand.

Also installed aome retro lighta to match the 90's style.


Shiny!

Go easy on cutting the paintwork back. In my case I uncovered the white undercoat beneath the tornado pink on the edge of my bonnet! It's a shame that certain red cars of the 90s suffered with colour fade.

Sorry about very very late answer but yeah I was careful when cutting the paintwork and will be if it needs to be done again :-)

Not much has happened with the Golf, I've just been enjoying driving it daily :-D

I've done lots of work on this car lately.. Let the pics speak for themselves  :D























Big bumper conversion, arch trims, new rad and electric fan, 00's momo steering wheel and vdo cockpit gauge etc :-)

Gotta start working on tidying up the engine bay. At this state I hate it because of the color and it's so messy..
