Pat's new VR6!

[Jarred]

you could polish the lip yourself, just with a bit of patience

haha my parents spotted your car on their morning walk and asked if I knew who it was. You live like 30secs away from me haha! (no stalker)

bah, Im at uni and can afford wheels, just gotta know where to look

Oh so you're the owner of the marone vr6 with Audi tt wheels about 400m from my house! Haha nah I'm the stalker I was wondering who's car it was. I drove down your street a few nights ago and I usually never go that way home but I saw your car and did a U turn to have another look nice!

That's me! I'll have to come down and have a stalk myself. If you aren't doing anything tonight pop on down to the factory for the usual Friday night bbq. I'll PM you my number

not real TT wheels, so they're going :p

I'll be in ballarat tonight but next week would be cool for sure! What wheels are you putting on next then?

And Jarred I just looked into polishing and I'll definitely do that. Not sure whether to paint the wheels first then polish or polish lip then mask the lip up for paint.

I'm also working on my centre caps at the moment with some paint, it might end up kinda ghetto but I removed the aluminium plates on them and prepped them and I'm painting them black background with a red vw logo with a stencil I cut up. Has potential to look really good or really ****ty we'll soon find out

[GoLfMan]

you'll just have to find out mate

Well the radiator decided to spew out a whole lot of coolant (mostly water because I've had to keep filling it up thanks to leaking) twice in a day, so I've parked in in the carport until the new radiator is in. You can see heaps of crusty crappy pink coolant all over the current one. Luckily this bad boy just arrived about half an hour ago:



I'll change the radiator when I get the chance, I'll have the car up on stands in the mean time which means I can work on my wheels too.

Bought a polishing kit off eBay for 38 bucks shipped which includes buffing wheels, drill attachment and different polishing compounds. Anybody know where I can buy some aircraft paint stripper?

Guess which one is the new one? Changed the radiator on the weekend with fairly minimal headaches which was a nice change! Car is up on stands while I do my wheels now.

Has anyone done an antenna delete/change of location or whatever, not particularly liking the giant thing hanging off the roof. I assume there's a plug for it too?
