[1.9...stefan]

looking good mate... nice little project youve got

 

[strugers1]

a paint job is something i have been looking at doing for some time how much??
i want mine in the factory extreme blue but just refreshed lol looking the nuts mate

 

[barnsley]

looking well mate
but for a little more work i would have had the lights out and handles off for the respray had some paint done befor and water ends up behind the lacquer

 

[Craigus]

Very nice respray job matey, im loking at getting mine done, i was wondering how much roughly it is for a leon.?

 

[Ibiza 130 tdi]

Bit surprised nothing was stripped out for painting! Painting the car with the bumpers on, handles in and stuff is just bad!

Looks nice though! Good list of mods done and mods to come.

Looks good that, agree with barnsley about removing lights etc tho!!
had thought about a black roof on mine, even more tempted now its a nice touch!

Always recommend taking it to a paint correction specialist before respray. You will be suprised how much it can do.

I was gunna do this Jon but i think mine has been in a front end er

the n/s front door and n/s front wing are a different shade to the rest of the car, there the worst orange peel i have ever seen, i want to try and wet sand it, but i dnt think i can change the shade.

Is the orange peel on the clear coat or the paint underneath? If its definitely the paint then yes it will need repraying however if it is the lacquer then wetsanding will restore the colour and look.

Take it to a specialist anyway, they may be able to correct it. Probably best to get whole car detailed then get it reprayed so when they colour match or whatever you got a good standard to compare to with the rest of the car being corrected.

I am going to a detailing centre as i have been detailing for 2 years now myself, but never plucked up the courage to wet sand, but there is a ex swissvax tutor at this centre whose gunna give me some pointers.

i do agree he should have taken the lights off etc... i paid £750 (good mate done it for me) all in with the roof and spiler mirrors, and my front bumper was rippied off the brackets,;. I think that i paid a a good price and the job is preety good if you see the car, it looks absolutely mint!

 

[Cupraredtdi]

jon i wanted the car to be a different red hence i didnt go to p aint correction route

 

[Cupraredtdi]

iv had the coillies fitted now preety much wound all the way down! also german stamp plates!

Had some photos taken with my mates golf!!!!!! hope you like the pics!
