We need to catch up soon!

You took too long!

Catch up? When are we doing this camping trip?

Have a look on my thread mate :) they look good, but the colour needs to be darker. So it'll be getting peeled off and redoing them. Does the bird poop rule apply to plasti-dip? Just had a butchers and didn't realize that was that was your project thread Good idea protecting them but I see what you...

Well from what I've learnt about it so far. Very little after care. Obviously bird poop should be removed asap. But generally power washing is fine and no need to dry.

Get a pic up man, lets have a look.
Good thing about it is it should protect your precious wheels in winter.

I know I shouldn't like it but I do.

I'll admit to a massive F up when I was 16 (13yrs ago). I cleaned my mum and dads Mondeo which at the time a spotless saphirre cosworth wheels. Cleaning the car was no problem but the brake dust wouldn't come off as easily with the fairy liquid x_x I used. SO I got the rough side of a dish sponge on...

Thanks fella, the funniest thing about is I love detailing/ appreciate detailed cars. All my cleaning stuff is going to waste.

To do it yourself I wouldn't spend any less then £500. All the prep bits and bobs soon start to add up. Plus paint, machine, safety gear etc. Once I've finished doing a few other cars I'll start putting a price list. Roughly for a passat sized car £450 inclusive of parts and labour. Which I think ...

From watching an old episode of 5th gear on the r36 (4mo) and a6 (quattro).
4mo was supposed to be 50/50 and quattro 60/40. But I don't know if that goes for all quattros and 4mo's.

Thought you might want to see a close up.
But this is only after two coats.

Well I ordered a good piece of kit including paint which set me back around £500. No primers were used as black doesnt need it. As for prep work there isn't a lot other then the usual masking, and intensive cleaning prior. If you saw the deep scratches I have on my drivers side the dip hasn't done ...

Cheers guys, Reason I went for the pink wheels was because I knew I was going to start plasti-dipping and wanted it to stand out / good for advertising. As for working with it... It was quite good to be honest scary watching it dry because it looks so lumpy and rippley. But when it settles and drys ...

Just dipped my B5 in matt black. Took me 8 hours to complete start to finish including masking and unwrapping. http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l40/taylonm/IMG_20130827_150643.jpg [/URL] My bro now wants his b5.5 done in Camo. So we'll probably be ordering some up for next month. I wanted to see pe...

Mines idiot proof.

Taylon being my first name and 'm' being my surname.

Taylon... Meant to say ... Good on you for getting this happening so early! Oh and yes... I am still on tour... I will give you a call as soon as I'm back next week. :-) Cheers man, I just wanted to get this going as early as poss. I'm sure people will start falling out nearer the time but we shoul...

No point even telling you how much I spent last time. ...lol. I wasn't on a budget... Just had ALOT of fun. T .. We should get the villas booked up now mate. ... Ill pay the deposit. Have you checked track opening times for the weekends u have suggested? Andy is in too... He wouldn't miss it for th...

Im very interested in this :twisted: If you could give an idea of cost from your previous trip (a full break down please) Last time, was a real budget trip and wasted to much time not at the ring. However, I did manage to price up the last trip and for the 4days we were gone for my car cost in tota...

yeah, the cars there, but did you know, I never made it into one single picture of our weekend! tell them Taylon, I`m really not that ugly :shock: ok, maybe a wee bit x_x I think you hid from the cameras everytime. Make sure you get in them next time! You've got 8 months to choose your outfits and ...

I didnt exclude you look again!
Glad you're back in for round two. This one should be epic!

I've got a personal group together now. 3/4 cars guaranteed so I thought I'd check if anyone on here would like to join us? At this stage this thread is only to gauge interest. I've spoken with Dubdrummer (tom) and I'm quite sure he's on it, but I know quite a few people felt left out that there was...

A few of us went to the 'ring back in April.
Heres a link to some of the trip. viewtopic.php?f=3&t=62783&hilit=nurburgring+2013

Part two of the trip will be april next year. I'm currently building a mk3 VR6t for that.
