Raz s Posted February 18, 2013 Author Share Posted February 18, 2013 Yeh it will be The volvos are great but we were prepping the polo to be advertised so that will be gone soon . Im lucky to be able to work on it there and have mates with such a good quality of work to give me a hand with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeLaSoul Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Looking good. I hate doing bodywork, never looks right until the last coat of paint goes on and then it shows any bits you miss! I'll leave mine to the bodyshop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raz s Posted March 1, 2013 Author Share Posted March 1, 2013 Well small measly update after just reading davemb2's update but hey! never the less. finally finished my cf badge tonight i will get this mounted tomorrow. Looks great dont know what happened in the pic though it looks distorted in the bottom corner of the 'H'..Also found a (spoon, I think is fake) engine torque damper that a mate gave to me from his old delsol. I have had this lying around for ages so i might aswell fit it. Although i think im gonne remove the spoon etching. Surely the etching would be better quality if it was genuine?
