wow that looks so clean. the stretchwall steelies look perfect for it. great job!

Love it! Followed the WIP and figured it would turn out well. Never thought that the crazy wide wheels could be pulled off on such a small car but they work!

Wow, for some reason i didn't pay attention to the progress thread, but once i opened this finished thread i was stunned. Beautiful job, all the detail work is just perfect. Not overdone, like a euro should be!!! Also top notch work on the grill and good wheel choice. Keep them v-dubs comin!

Thanks guys :) I tried to do my best ;)

Mr Deedlit,

Congratulations for this new member to your collection. You gave a "living touch" to this simple kit. Very good job sir!

The only thing which I am not completely agree is at the top... I should use putty to cover "sunroof" lines or open it

Excelent job Deedlit (just curious: what does your nickname mean?)

thats absolutely stunning! great work my friend

Nice work Xavier, and as usual verry close to the 1/1 scene.

Just one thing: IMO you should have filled the gap between the grille and the body (next to the headlights)

Wow, that my friend is a thing of beauty:) Very nice work.

Looks great.

Thanks :)
