PeeWee Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Nice work on the rear arches, looks good how you did it into the doors. Is that a normal 3 door rear arch kit then modded to fit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You cant see the mistake from those pics but next time its out the garage it show you where it went a little pete tong! Only done the 1 side so far though. Other side is bonded on but not smoothed in. Still not sure what to do with the filler cap yet! Got a flush fit kit from deemon tweeks ages ago, Wasnt cheap:jaw: so think Im gonna try using it. If not then ill build the flap out so it sits flush like a normal mk6 would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lee grout Posted May 2, 2011 Author Share Posted May 2, 2011 No. I did learn bodywork in a proper bodyshop when I was 16. Im a stonemason now. Although not quite the same still has some of the same techniques with regards to rubbing and shaping I really like and enjoy doing bodywork so thats half the battle right there. Never been affraid of getting out the old fibreglass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's good, i always have a go myself, been restoring my car for a little over a year, i've done everything myself apart from the actual welding part, finishing up filler at the moment, as you say, bodywork is fun and filler smells lovely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
