[Ad Lav]

It's been a long time coming, but it's finally finished!
Those of you who've seen it on the MK4 section know how long its taken!(simon34)

Let me know what you think...
Start to Finish

And yes I know it needs a wash!

Just had another kiddie matey litle ibiza wasnt big enough so it had to go

 

[Ad Lav]

Congrats on the baby mate!

looks ace mate... 1 question thou, how do u open the boot now??

 

[MMCrewcupra]

more than likely on a boot pop kit, (solenoid etc) with a button inside somewhere on dash etc, looks well nice dude, very smooth, i was thinking of having this done to my leon but for some weird reason i actually like the Giant S there

 

[beezaturbo]

was considering this on y mk3 ibiza but decided against it.
also what did you use to spray it with? small compressor and gun?
also i';m suprised you got a decent job doing it like that as any shite could hgave gotten into the paint, i've sprayed a couple of rally cars as diy garage jobs and its suprising no matter how clean it is the **** that gets in the paint, let alone with the door open. but well done for doing it yourself. did you weld it up?

 

[RobM]

Is that a DIY Job? If so, that's extremely impressive! Looks a very good quality job and looks superb too

 

[Andi]

Thats a tidy looking job, did you weld a plate in ?

(anyone think in the final pic that the car is looking at you with all its Fly like eyes, lol)

 

[RobM]

I'm thinking that now! Just needs a nose....

 

[Kevgrady]

boot looks a different colour to the rest of the car now

 

[AndyHazza]

Nice work there mate

 

[Ibiza02]

how much has that cost ya to do then mate looks well smart

 

[shefflad]

nice work, and very smart - just imho it looks like its missing something - which is the S badge.

Though it does look good

 

[davels]

wow it looks like your car gone on the run bin-laden stylee

 

[Ad Lav]

Davels - That's the rat look!

I got a mates dad (runs his own garage) to weld a plate in.

Best mate (pictured) is a prep/sprayer at a bodyshop, he did the filling/rubbing/spraying himself at his mum's garage!

We borrowed a compressor from the boss and mate has his own spraying tools/air-lines etc so piece of cake!

A few flecks in the paint but we are wet-flatting the boot and mopping it tonight so will be extra smooth and shiny!

Cost me £80 for the paint/filler/welding and a new vw corrado door - payment to my mate!

Thanks for comments guys!!

 

[gavthelad]

looks very impressive mate!! i like it, so is it now opened with a solenoid? if so, where have you installed it.......inside the car?

 

[davels]

think he has the release button next to the TCS button next to the handbrake iirc,
