On what?
On chrome!

And some good old Niederquerschnittsreifen (low section tyres). . 18'' are some kind of "beast mode" on a Mk.II Golf. Maybe I have to rework the wheel guards.

Now, I want to see how you get this beast through a bend! I already hear the rubber cry when turning the wheel...

[tigrazor]

LOL.

Pretty hard, but possible.

This is great, love the idea of the hub cap, I was a VW Audi mechanic for fifteen years in my early days, remember working on these.

Welcome to the WIP Steve.

Sorry for the late pics. That has several reasons: After an almost-catastrophe with the Golf (putty cracked at the rear, massive damage!), some other projects and an upcoming move from my hometown to my girlfriends castle I put this project a bit behind.

Anyways, the almost-catastrophe had been prevented and the Golf didnt went into the bin. No, not THAT project.

Hell get a pretty flashy green metallic from DupliColor and I tested the color on the hood (clear coat still missing). What do you say?

Front bumpers needed loads of putty as well. NARF! I added a scratched lip here and a (Mustang) cooler made from the cooler itself of course (had to sand and cut it too). The tubes are plastic profile, the connections are thickened with wood glue.




Lets do it the "Milky Way". Although Ive shaken the rattle can, the clear coat got milky. But all went well and the result is a pretty good one.
