I really want to refresh my EK4 due to its age. Its condition before i started the project.
The car is out of license so it is time to start and i am little tire of the pre-facelift style so i am going to convert it to +99 front end,
Here is how i cut the radiator support for +99 conversion,
Here is the finishing product,
Also gut the interior as much as possible but i still need to drive the car to the bodyshop
The car is now in the bodyshop getting a complete repaint in Y56 again, because i really don't like if the color is not matching. This time i will have the engine bay repaint in Y56 too. The bodyshop allow me to drop the engine in there shop for free as long as i do the work. So i did it with some help from the worker there.
Some work being done to the body.......Also all the windows are removed for paint job.
The engine bay is repainted and engine is back into the car but no pictures.....Hopefully i will have the car back next weeks, just in time before Easter holiday. I will have more update as progress.
