    Very nice, how much was it for the respray? PM if you want.

    Here's my MK2, its a bit sick at the moment though as the heater matrix exploded when it was -2, filled the car with steam for about 5 minutes. It was certainly a strange site for the queue at the bus stop when i pulled over.

        All the work is inside the car, so no problem, but the cold and snow has put it on the backburner for now..

            Looking good, got any higher shots showing what the roof's come out like etc as thats a hard bit for them to do. Interested to see what its came out like. Sheffields not that far away if I needed to ever bring a car to be resprayed, my urq's already in being re-sprayed elsewhere tho.

              Pete,

              Have you not seen JJ's UR's as he has had his resprayed by the same firm...

              I have not had the roof done as it didn't need doing... It's still 100% orginal VW paintwork... you have to draw the line somewhere or the costs just sprial out of control...

              But the heater matrix is held by two bolts in the engine bay and also the matrix pipes go through the fire wall Unless you have changed the interior...

                Ah ok mate, just was interested as I know how hard it would have been to have the roof sprayed, my urq's roof's being sprayed soon. If its all good then no need to do it

                      Another good reason not to lower it!!!

                      Mind you I'm a short ****... so no chance of me seeing the roof!!!!

                      If it had need the roof doing I would have had it done...

                              Seriously though, that is gleaming. Good work chaps.
