Jim Bowen 1 Posted January 16, 2007 @Khurrado :lol: i knew you'd like it i have grilles on the speakers, i only found out they weren't standard speakers after seeing that pic, as you can't actually see them at all in real life. weird, i think its the flash of camera, as the rest of the car just looks black inside, its a lot more dark and dingy than it looks in pic how it looks with my camera^^ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim Bowen 1 Posted March 25, 2007 Washed car and got some better pics, rather than it jsut sat on my drive 1 weeks worth of dirt, from going to work Cleaned and found a nice scenic spot No 4x4 comments please :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted April 10, 2007 just a few more pics, been treating the leather today and gave the outside a quick wash Seats, no wear on bolsters 8) car, washed, pics are quite dark and really bright :lol: was a sunny day tried to take a pic to show condition of paint (swirls etc), not sure if i've taken picture correctly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
herisites 0 Posted April 10, 2007 Great pics mate! Car looks very clean and the paints in superb condition judging by the last picture which would usually show up no end of swirls! Get your wheels off and clean the arches though!! :lol: What do you use on your tyres, they are rather shiny? I use Megs Endurance which is very good but doesnt shine as much as that!

Jim Bowen 1 Posted April 10, 2007 cheers, the paint does have some swirling imo, maybe i'm just too fussy, hard to see until you there in person. :lol: i use the autoglym stuff on tyres, its a little spray bottle, it works well but the bottle runs out quickly, think the tyres were still abit wet with it in the pics Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
herisites 0 Posted April 10, 2007 Not tried the AG stuff, might have to get some. Im exactly the same as you though, mine isn't THAT bad for swirls, i havent had the machine polisher on it yet but i have had a few sessions with Scratch-X in the past so its not terrible. BUT i still look at it and see swirls and i HAVE to get rid of them :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted May 26, 2007 Decided to tidy up under the arches today, i could of done a better job, but took long enough anyway A cheap thing to do, makes quite a difference to how old the car looks, bought these bits £11 for everything. Took wheels off, and off i went Will be doing fronts next week Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vwdeviant 0 Posted June 5, 2007 Seems to be limping in the second shot... Too my FK off and went back to stock with black badge... think the badge breaks things up more... plus I think it looks like an 80's chrysler without! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted June 5, 2007 i did have a black badge but didn't like it very much as was different colour black to the grill :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
