Re: G's 2009 Highline - Time for a colour change

A few fresh shots from the weekend at the Belfast Car Scene Cruise for Cancer. Over £8000 raised for local cancer charity. Great day out and the weather was spot on! http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt349/gblackb6/E842360F-7F4A-437D-8377-0D6E8594D755.jpg http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt349/g...

Re: G's 2009 Highline - Time for a colour change

Well the plans for spending money on the house have already started. Getting a garage built, hopefully with a scissor lift sunk into the floor! Hope to have it ready for the winter and park the car up for most of it.

Re: G's 2009 Highline - Time for a colour change

Apart from the colour change, everything I did last year I made money on. iPad instal, interior and now wheels change I've all made money on doing.

Don't think this car will leave me for a long time. I'll see how the house and wedding go, then before she wants kids, I'll get a big ass turbo! :-bd

Re: G's 2009 Highline - Time for a colour change

It's just a simple custom rear section with 4" tips. At some stage I'll get a stainless system put in.

Have an upto date photo too with the new wheels!

Re: G's 2009 Highline - Time for a colour change

I just cut the locating tabs off then bonded it in. Could have cut new holes in the bumper for the clips to fit into, but this way was easier.

Re: G's 2009 Highline - Time for a colour change

This week has been fairly action packed so far and I've still loads to do before Saturday! Few finishing touches to the interior and a lot of cleaning to do. Full feature of my car is now online! Head over to fittedstate.com to see all the photos and the write up. I'll post a link on the UKP Faceboo...

Standard 17" wheels are potentially sold. However I might also be selling the Porsche wheels after Dubshed if anyone is interested.

Afraid not! Thanks for the comments guys. Can't wait to give it a good polish. It's at night that the paint really looks it's best under the lights.

Re: G's 2009 Highline - Time for a colour change

So after another 7 hours on the car yesterday, it's finally built back up again. So pleased with the results and I can't wait to get out for a drive in it. Some full colour photos for you to enjoy! http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt349/gblackb6/15464AA5-BE0C-4194-86E3-EBA84E3437CC.jpg http://i626...

Re: G's 2009 Highline - Time for a colour change

Once I can get it built back up and it sitting how I want it I might throw a photo up. Few bits still need wet sanded and buffed up. Hopefully, it will be built up this Saturday and I can use it on Sunday. Miss not having my own car so bad!

Windscreen had to come out for paint, so I bought Graeme's old screen off him with the bracket attached and fitted it once paint was finished.

Re: Bagged CC, new colour and wheels pg 10

New wheels look well but I would stick with the narrower ones especially on 20s. A wider rear means you mightn't get as good a tuck.

How's the plasti dip stand the test of time and winter driving?

Re: G's 2009 Highline - Time for a colour change

I don't have big enough stones to paint it pink that's for sure! Keeping it clean and classy. Hopefully get the car back on Wednesday, but I've a few bits and pieces to do before I can start building it up. Miss not being able to drive it

Re: B6 rear seat wont fold down

Said white lever is underneath the key slot and can become jammed when the seat is down. The seat is effectively in the locked position. If you put the key in and turn it to the locked position, lift the trim that the lock barrel is attached to about 5m then click it back in again it should free it ...

Re: G's 2009 Highline - Time for a colour change

Any photos I have taken of the paint are inside and on my phone. News to wait till the cars outside at least to get the full effect of the paint.

Today was spent cleaning the arch linings, matts and tail lights. New headlights being fitted for the perfect clean and new look
