Just sanded and wire wheeled, primped, paint, clear coat. wet sanding is the key to get a super finish with rattle cans. just have a look on you tube or sumin be plenty of guides.

Updates ----
Finished painting inside and fit my gti dash minus heater controllls and a few other plastic trim bits i still need do get! Donations welcome!! 
Will start to route and tidy my interior loom sunday, will try and hide as much as i can, but that should be easy part of the build for me being a security engineer / sparky.
Took some quick pics but not the best so i will get some better ones at the weekend.

Am very impressed with the gti bumper. Is it me though or does the bonnet sit slightly too high? Love where this is heading!

little update ;-
Sprayed and fitted my 106 wing mirrors:
Also sprayed my side skirts and spoiler at the same time, They just need final finishing then ill get them fitted.
As well ive got myself a set of jp4 cam covers as my j4 seals are shot and a few flocked parts just awaiting delivery of those.
Was going to do my interior loom but forgot my electrical tools so will get that cracked another day !
Love the look of the mirrors tho

Not much to update really funds are tight and saving for holiday. so will be trying to do tasks from now on a minimal budget ! And ill be very busy as i have something exciting that may be coming up for the start of the race season
So im going to tackle a rough idle 
I think my fuel filter is full of crap as im running on low fuel ( Low lights been on for over a year ) lol beat that one!
So ill put a new filter on it- Put some fuel in!!!! and some red ex to clean the injectors and will see where that gets me
Theres no fault light on so will try that before i go down the mine field of replacing sensors. Lambda is brand spanka so shouldn't be that and ive cleaned ICV
Oh yeah Notice in the pic above i need a top rad hose as well ! money money !
