Love it, Want to see it with the BBS on!

I presume (Sorry if i have missed in the thread) you have some side trims to fit along the length of the car? Chrome?
 
  AMV8, Mk1 Golf
not chrome, black just wanted to get it all polished before i put them on as i have a habbit of putting polish on everything in sight.

well today i was up at 9am, in 29 degree heat (im not complainig!!) its got to the stage where there is loads of niggly little bits to do that done look like much.

biggest job was extending the original fuel lines and setting them up for the bike carbs.. nightmare!!! after several trips to halfords lots of cuts and bruises
lots of head scratching...

Right, I'm thick, but can't you just spray the washer bottle? Silver or something?

Progress at last! I've been reading this for ages and its good to see it coming together.

ive heard rice and shake like a mad woman works well, will see, i suppose it doesnt matter too much seeing is the car isnt 100% perfect but it would be nice for it to look well

Aye, for 20 mins work it will be worth it.

I tried the rice one on my E30... did f**k all. And I tossed it like I was watching challange Anneka give it large on a trampoline.
