Ok....
tuesday she goes in for final flat and polish on spoiler and mirrors

when all the g30 cutting paste is out of all the cracks and the masking tape marks are gone
will choose a nice sunny day and take her to my piccy place a viccy country park....
and time for reveal

will try and do the flake justice but real bitch to get it to show....

Big thanks out to Indigo

Eve lives on

spent all day at my mates house. I detailed his golf mk2 gti back to showroom spec
and he welded eve's scorpion zorst to saffy

decat needed 1 1/2 inch added and flange turned to force centre section up into tunnel.
the centre section needed bending to exit the tunnel straight and the nasty mild steel flanges removed
and now straight through full stainless steel one piece centre to backbox

it has a nice low grumble to it all the nasty honda rasp has gone and Vtec has a real growl....
very happy and glad Eve's voice lives on!!!!

Ok so weather has turned bad and cant get to usual place for final pic's so will just update the story so far

First Saffy went to a friends house for an ariel delete !!!!

Second he fibreglassed the spoiler holes that TrickyRicky had cut to access the bolts

made a perfect job...
so spoiler now in mint condition

Third job off to W1ggz and 4WS deleted and 2WS convertion

5th gen glass moonroof

Forth job off to TheBusOfWhoes and Aircon and Cruise Control delete

she is losing a lot of weight

Fifth job off to the painters

2nd base coat of gloss black...

3rd base coat...

2x layers of 7 colour Holographic flake at 90% and 8x layers of laquer later

(yes 3 1/2 litre's of laquer)

then in for final flat and polish

and their attension to detail is unreal

in total they spent 14 hours with 4 different grades of wet and dry, 2 different grades of cutting compound and a final polishing compound and the final result......

the only way I could get this done was in the right place right time

the guys that did it are called "South Coast Plasti Dip" they are on facebook and wanted some show work out there

Jamie had invested in a new gun to spray Holo flake and was itching to use it...
he plasti dipped the boot but the glossifier coat sank...

so he lost money doing Saffy but since then the picys have done the rounds on southern customs show page and have generated a lot of new work his way

am having stickers made up and will wear them with pride

as their service and work are second to none.... and their prices are cracking too
