Re: vw mk4 golf SMOOTH

Yes I agree, nice model you've built there !

clean build, good choice (softly tuned), nice color... very good !

Are these wheels box parts or do they come from elsewhere (and so where ) ?
they fit the model very well.

and one more question please, what do you mean by "scratchbuilt fmic" ?

He meant his scratch build intercooler! If you look on the tiny holes of the bumper,you'll see it...

This ride is looking great! I don't know if I really like clean Mk4's,but this one looks good

Nice ride I like the color, rims, ...

Just the missing license plate (on the rear) looks strange, it makes the bumper look empty.

Re: vw mk4 golf SMOOTH

Looks incredible....really loving the smooth look and you've picked a great colour to show it off too...with an excellent spray job to compliment it! Loving the black headlights too. But I can't see the exhaust...where'd it go? Would've looked insane with a dual exhaust sticking out the back

I agree, also seems like the headlights are missing the lenses no? Also seems like it could use some window trim. Other than that it looks good, also what paint did you use>?

The headlights look great!
