What did you do to your "Dub" today?

**Got Wax** · 09-23-2009 08:38 PM

Newb here. Recently picked up an '08 GTI for my daughter. A bit more speed than she needs. So, I am going to use it as a loaner for my detail customers. So, today, I finished a three day paint correction on this little red demon.

Fun car and now looks perfect!!!

**nightryder12** · 09-24-2009 08:49 PM

I never really thought I would be that jealous of the GTI. I definitely have a little bit of a GTI fever though! Beautiful job

And where is that shot? I was thinkin in your third picture down the peak just to the left of your car's roof isn't sugarloaf is it? Great pics tho.

**Got Wax** · 09-24-2009 11:18 PM

Thanks!!! Pics are just below Lookout Mtn, above Golden

BUT atlease i am not over heating at a stop light any more.

Mine marked up part of the road with coolant, found out my alternator bracket broke and the water pump wasnt spinning.
Fixed that, now I just need to buy that BBM pulley and do the serp setup. I have everything else!!

Gave a poor beat up, neglected, and abused 86 jetta a new lease on life... in process of giving it a nice two tone coating of properly flattened satin enamel...

Been under construction for about a week now!

How old is the daughter.

Does she dig boys who have rides like this???

Better question...does dad approve of boys who drive cars like that lol.

BTW, ordered a car cover for victoria yesterday. CANNOT WAIT til it gets here.

I just about finished removing the vapor barrier adhesive from my drivers door. I had to fix the window regulator. Then I get to clean the filthy door card and plastic trim. Though I did find about a dollar in change stuck in the plastic door pocket!

I'll have you know that a dollar can get you a Chicken Burrito or whatever on the menu at Taco Bell good sir. So indulge in your most recent of discoveries!
