Fatttty's Lupo GTi | Sold and gone to it's new home.. new car hunt begins :)

[fatttty]

Ok with Dubmania next week I thought it best to get started early on the Lupo. As the paint is fresh theres no products on it at all and over this weekend i want to give it a full going over, SRP, pre wax cleanser, sealant and wax to keep it looking its best.

Gave it a quick wash down, gace it a quick once over with AG SRP followed by two coats of limeprime pre wax cleanser. My passenger side door had some light 'milky' patches with the SRP got rid of really easily which I was pleased with.

Passenger side door after SRP and limeprime-

The RM's had been left since coming back from the bodyshop so were looking dull and very sorry for themselves. Gave them a coat of Poor Boys wheel sealant and polished the dishes with Megs NTX metal polish

Do I qualify as a dirty stancer yet???

The whole car got a couple of coats of limeprime, tomorrow I will give it a coat of Chemical Guys Sealant and AG High Def wax.

Drivers side after SRP and Limeprime-

Rear camber

You can see my works car in the background, how embaressing lol

Tomorrow will be sealant and top coat wax.

Thanks for looking, Alex

Looking great Alex, my car won't be this clean for Dubs Mania

[Gti paul]

Nice motor buddy,

[fatttty]

Had a busy few days last week getting ready for Dubs Mania, Ryan came round machine polished the sides of the car and also polished the sills and the laquer overspray on the top of the wings where the bonnet closes.

Was up at 6am Saturday to clean the car before I had work at 10am til 1pm then carried on until the early evening.. was shattered!

Had a freidn make me some OEM dealer type plates for the show, plastic is a bit thin but they look cool when fitted-

Ready to be tucked up in the garage-

Had a great day at Dubs Mania, weather was a little off and didnt take hardly any photos. Couple I did get...

And to my complete suprise I came away with a Top 10 trophy, really couldnt believe it! So plesed, my first one ever all that hard work has paid off

Got a few ideas for the coming season, mainly further cleaning and detailing. Thanks for looking, Alex

Little update

Had a visit from 12yan last night, gave the car a quick clean ready for Awesome / Detailed meet on Sunday. My B-Pillars were starting to look a little worse for wear. Ryan worked his magic with the machine polisher...

Masked up-

50/50 to assess the grade of polish needed-

Shiney shiney -

Had a few new parts lieing around that I had been meaning to fit, new window switches and suround plates-

Also fixed my passenger door which is a big relief as it wouldn't open from the outside OR the inside :S all sorted now after a new blanking lock barrel and handle bracker
