my second build VW mk2 Golf

since i enjoyed building it, i started a new one to make it a lil different. this one will be more like oem with only a dropped suspension and sitting on bbs rs wheels

some guys here told me that my builds was good and detailed but i was missing some finishing touch on the body to make it look real.

so the one you are about to see is my first attemp at polishing the body.

i made it in 3 steps, all with meguiar's automotive products

1- compound
2- glaze
3- yellow wax

i think it came out awsome since i can't see any defaults in the paint now and shines like a mirror.

the color is what was the closest to the oem vw montana green

here are the pics of the first part of my wip

this is the kit



before polishing the hood (i was leaving my cars like this before)





after:







side of the car before:

and that's it for the first part! i hope you like the color!

if you have any comments about the polishing, feel free to say it, good or bad!
