First week of Feb saw me extremely busy with DubFest 2k15 preps. First up was Rughoo's smoking hot Roc .:R

The car had just come back from the body shop, front end got resprayed. When he dropped the car off we had a brief chat, but it was dark and I couldn't see the true condition, although I had noticed another hack job from the body shop. He didn't see it under the street lights, but the next morning my suspicion was confirmed :grin:

The bonnet and front bumper had been badly 'polished' :bang: all of this on a brand new paint job, scares the SH^T out of me !!!

As usual I started off with the wheels and wheel arches

I then got to work on the paint. Multi-stage wash, followed by decontamination and finally time for some correction. Here is 2 before and afters I snapped on the day

Seems very well detailed, good write-up and results.

Thanks for sharing,

Kind Regards.
 
White can be a tough color to make it really pop, but it looks great.
On cars that have been freshly painted is it recommended to skip the LSP?

Do you guys have this model in place of the Golf? I really like the look of that car.
 
Thanx for all the replies guys !! Truly appreciate it

No After correction and Polish LSP will also be applied to the mentioned pannels. We had this and the Golf, no 2 door Golf's for us unfortunately

@Zubair - Menz all the way buddy. FG400, SF400 and finally Menz PL
