Really looking forward to seeing this finished.
Cant wait to get mine painted later this year.
Been looking at your pix too…..your new carpet looks clean!…best u buy a pair a slippers just for the Golf ! :wink:
Im suprised its still spotless.
Went to have a chat with the guy that done yours earlier today.
Gave me a quote (without any hidden nasties popping up once the arches ect are taken off)
Very happy with the setup hes got there, plus the length of time he wants the car shows hes not going to rush it.
Just got to save the cash now.

Thought I'd update the lighting with some White LED's
Changed 1 front side light to show you the difference
