Re: cleaned/euro mk2 phase 1 (172 kit plus smoothing)

Standard rubber one mate. The doors have been welded on the inside and p/40 then fillered.
 
Re: cleaned/euro mk2 phase 1 (172 kit plus smoothing)

Have they welded plates over the bumpstrip recess then fillered it or what?

Ah cool.

I know a guy that just had his fillered and it sunk after about 4 weeks. Looked comical! He had lines all down the side of the car!!

im really happy with the bumper. He was still finishing it off when i took the pics. He's got to make a plastic infill piece on the edges of the grille and its finished apart from being stripped of the paint. He also did both wings so there ready to go on with the skirts but he didnt have time to put them on today. im very happy with his work so far and for what its costing me a really carnt complain. ill keep you posted on further devolments. :D

Re: cleaned/euro mk2 phase 1 (172 kit plus smoothing)
