I think u did a wicked job of that mk2 'rocco, so have faith in this! Looks like it's coming along well, do u plan to keep the bonnet/roof etc style seperate from the sides?

same here bud my plan is to get my rust issues sorted which ive already started and from the moment i started its an absolute pita!!

its threads like this which kinda makes me just wanna enjoy what i got even if my cars roof is non existant next year because of rust!,

but i cant do that! cant give up yet!

The thing is with tidy cars you have alway got that constant worry about rust/stonechips/laquar peel/some twat keyin it i cant be bothered with all the worrying LOL i just wanna enjoy it and make a few peeps smile along the way ;)

 

Its funny even today at oktoberfest peeps still come up and go is that real rust LOL "ah ye" . I also start talkin to peeps about the quality of the rust and tryin to get the shade just right. personally i use a grinder the leave it for a winter that normally does the trick :)

 

The sides/rear bumper will be a satin black base then a graffiti artist will be goin mad with it using mostly gold, silver, bronze to follow the look of the polo and rocco.

Im sure it will be good. Like Chris said you Rocco is good and the Polo as well. I cant really say much as my daily looks like this

A poor attempt in comparison to your cars but its just a bit of fun and something I can leave any where :D
