I like the clean lines. Great choice on the colour.

SuhWEET! Really looks good Jason!

I am a little concerned about the fire-resistant fender beading?!? What are you preparing for?

LOL! I hope nothing, but for example the exaust tips lie only about an inch away from the start of the fender beading on the rear fenders, then again I guess the fiberglass could go up in flames too!!!

Thanks for the comments guys, hope to have it more complete and get some better pictures taken this weekend.

Hi

This car just keeps looking better & better.

What colour blue is that Golf? Paint code & car model would be helpful.

Steve

Steve, it's supposed to be Jazz Blue, VW paint code LW5Z, but as you can see my wheels don't look the same as the golf. I can only figure that the finish must be different, under the lighting conditions it looks ALOT different, or those added to some photoshop coloration. The color is pretty chamelion, but I've not seen that glow that the golf in the picture has, and what I wanted. I had bought my wife a purse that is the color I wanted and the color of the golf, but they couldn't duplicate it, the color would have to be custom built and could not just be mixed from existing colors apparently.

Santa Cruz is looking good with all the road shows you've been showing, I'll have to see if a cruise that way is in the cards. If not, your always welcomed back up here!

More pics already taken just not loaded up yet, so stay tuned. The front end is turning out really well.

Jason

Hi

I thought your camera didn't catch the colour properly.

I keep changing my mind about what colour to paint my car.

When I fancy a colour I get some paint mixed up and paint an engine lid to see if I can live with that colour.

So far I have painted engine lids, black, orange, Apple green, silver, purple and now I will try to find a colour like the one on the Golf.

Steve
