HELP- bare shell respray - remove clipper body kit???? what?
I imagine that between all of you lot out there someone somewhere must have encountered the same dilemma I'm in.
I've been looking for a mk1 gti for quite some time now but haven't found one i was satisfied with … until now.
The car i may just buy has a clipper body kit on it (done properly), and some extra spoilers and a bonnet vent/scoop/thingy?!
As i want to go 'old skool' i'd very promptly remove these to return the car to it's former glory.
soooooooooooo…….. ' Is it going to cause me severe probs with rust if i take this body kit off and refit original bumpers and arches, obviously use a bodyshop to respray and fill,and what about the bonnet??'
if the car is really solid is it going to be worth just getting the full thing (proper job - windows out) Respray as its in red and i want it in white or black? (how much spraying/filling etc involved)
-would there be a massive difference in price ?
-anyone had this done and how much did it cost?
I would only be satisfied with a 110% pukka job.
Please help if you can.
:mrgreen:
