VW Golf III (re-work) Progress

Got a very sloppy body shell from a friend today.
Wash off the old paint (painted blue b4). Applied surfacer paint, then a few layers of AUTOCOLOR Super Red.

Paintjob is good!
You are going to keep it factory stock?

Awesome golf!

Nice shiny body :), as orion asked, are you keeping it stock or a complete bodykit or something in between :smokin:

Not yet decided, but won't be too wild. Perhaps lower it, nice wheels, etc...

Looking good. Great shine. :sunglasse
I always wanted to get this kit, but always left the store with another one. :screwy:

Tks!
BTW, is the Cefiro kit popular in your area? I 've never seen this kit.
Does it have any engine details?

good work on the paintjob, awsome shine...
it looks quite agressive with the bbs but i would go with a set of silver rims, just to have a little contrast to the body

Hey , what kind of tape is that that you used to mask off the body, cuz wutever tape i used sometimes it takes the paint off, i think my tape is too strong.

Looks sick, but needs a drop IMO

Almost done, except wipers, mirrors, front spoiler, etc...

Looks great. Tires are too big though.

Thanks!

I like Red GolfS!!!!!

A very nice golf, Great work :smokin:

I like Red GolfS!!!!!

Nice Golf!!! Love the moonroof and BBS!

very nice! I like this red too! your next project should be a blue MKII!

god damn thats sick i lose the red and black wheels.

Thanks all for the comments!!!

Looks great, the black and red BBS rims look especially trick. Very good masking job too! Cool car!

Looks good:) the black bbs rims with that reed disch was beautifull on that car.;) but it looks great now to;)

Gosh, how did I miss this thread?

Realy nice. I like it a lot :)
I liked it with the 3 sets of wheels, it would be hard for me to choose. But whatever the rims you put on, I'm sure it will look good.

Man, you rock! What a shiny paint job!!! :) I wish I could do the same.

Keep it up!

Thanks!
I love those red+black rims too. Especially getting bored with the silver BBS....
Perhaps will try on in my next Golf project
