    Fitted oldschool UK/US/Jap etc 4 slat grill, have US style front lip that's putting up a bit of a fight so I think there might be some tab trimming in order.
    Smoked South African VR6 taillights still to go on. 3 X 17"s on. Will get some photos when she's looking a bit prettier, if a Vento can ever look pretty, like big butts?

    Found the old tape deck radio (don't ask why it had to be found) and yes it has an AUX port in the front PERFECT why don't more radios have this? Just have an old computer speaker cable and bam iPod connectivity bet the speakers will sound rubbish, but thats the least of the worries atm. Going to put some work in when I get this uni assignment done and swap the seats out... no bolsters = no good.

    He does know how to throw a tool or two at a VW that's for sure.

    Mercules and Vent should look schmick after their clean tomorrow (cleaning with window stuck down... Mk3s are all waterproofed inside right?). Head over for a geez anytime.
    Gotta get that maroon box-trailer out of it next.

    This is probably the last thing I should be doing, but I needed a break, and wanted something easy.

    Before:

    After


    spot the diff'?

    By the looks they're not genuine VW ones, but were a nice fit, and was good to squash a new gasket in there and clean the crud that had built up behind the lights
