Love the way it came out, awesome work. You do know you have a sweet daily beater don't you? I had a few VW back in the day...:D
 
Man that paint is glowing bro...wow just look at how slick it is. I like the way the interior looks, nice looking vehicle there pirex. What's your opinion on the Meg's# 21?

Looking forward to the Souveran on it. What I like the most about the vehicle is the way the colour looks so solid :righton:

Thank you for sharing
 
That red looks awesome, cant wait to see it with souveran. The eye lids are a nice touch on the car too.
 
Great detail! That red is nice and deep. I love those seats as well.
 
Looks really good! I trully find #21 looking nice and bright on reds... Pinnacle Souveran paste would make it look even better...
 
02CAMSS: Thanks :)

Tonya: Thanks for the compliment :D

Joe.p. Thanks for the feedback ;)

alban61: Thanks bro :D I like the shine to.

Sparkie: Thanks Sparkie, means alot comming from you bro :) Its a good ride, comfy and a bit sporty. VW is great ;)

Nica: Thanks buddy :D I like the glow menzerna + #21 makes! Oh, and the paint is slick, the mf towel just slides over the paint..he he. I really like megs 21, it makes the paint glowing and a bit wet. Very reflectiv. And it holds up great. I detailed a ford back in may, and it stills beads nice, and he has used degreaser on the car a couple of times. So its a nice sealent. A bit harder to remove then WGDGPS.

I will have pictures of the car when the souveran is on ;)

MoparAddict: Thanks bro ;) yeah, the eyelids makes it a bit "angryer" Pics will come :)

klumzypinoy: Thanks bro :D The seats are good!


supercharged: Thanks ;) Have to agree with you there, its a good sealent!

Oh, and the cars have 340 000 km on the meter ;)
 
Hey Pirex, is Meguiar's 21 sealant sorta like NXT sealant on steroids?

Hey. I have never tried the NXT sealent, so I don`t know. But the #21 is a sweet sealent! Nice gloss and wetness.
 
Car looks good...

Am I missing something, or are the passenger wheels different than the driver's side??? I thought it was just the light but the DS wheels look like they have a bevel on them and the PS side ones don't???
 
dannythekid: Thanks ;) The wheels should be the same :p It most be the light or something ;)
 
Very nice Pirex! The last headlight-shot was almost art! :) And the RS6 rims are sooo right!

Thanks for the info :) 21 does look nice.
 
You can't call that your beater anymore. Outstanding job, the paint looks so deep. That's a good color red, I agree with Nica, it looks solid.
