Not one to put dampers on things but have you looked at the inner front wings yet ?
Start there and the rest should be happy days plus you got instant street cred good luck m8.

Check out Gregs log on his MK1 driver - esp. the before and after shorts of the paint job. Although I dont think his was a bad respray, just a faded original, it just shows what can be done with a lot of elbow grease!
Gregs log!
Good luck and keep us posted with pics! :wink:

I did question the seller on this as the front wings were only replaced about 18 months ago, and he said the inner wings were in suprisinly good condition so he didnt have to do any work on them. Wether or not this is still the case i dont know!? Im going to have a look on saturday when im off of work.
Any idea how long it takes to take the front wings off and is it fairly straight forward?
