Looks stunning after abit of a polish.  :happy2:

Josh...the orangeness might just come from the white balance on the camera not being right. Still looks fantastic though.

again big thanks for all the kind words.  Its a long way off being perfect yet, but with only a day put aside to get some protection on there before winter and inject a bit of life back into it the paint.

Hopefully have a few more changes coming soon, although it's quite funny looking around at other Ed30 examples, as the mods which i've intended on doing before i even decided to buy it seem to be the norm.

Also i see what you mean about the orange-ness in the photos.  All fixed now though... i think.

wow  :drool:

do you offer a cleaning service to other vag owners  :confused:

I offer a service to everyone

Its looking Great already Phil !!

I thought i recognised the unit . . . . you did a protection detail on my Speed Blue Leon Cupra this year. Top job i might add !

Am looking forward to seeing what you do with this. Something tells me it wont be standard for too long  :smiley:


Thanks Jon, how the leon going. keeping it clean i hope.

already changed a few bit and more to come soon enough.

Thanks Phil

thanks guys, yeh im based in the north east and im the regional Swissvax detailer for this area. (if im not aloud to say this please tell me and ill edit it)

so a "couple" :stupid: of pleasant hours were spent today bring the edition30 a little closer to terra firma.

Started like this



Went like this.




but ended up like this



and now i'm suffering bad with "Man Flu" today. Never the less had a few bits to do this morning and thought i may as well get a few better pics of the new lows whilst the car was warming up.






happy days, feels so much nicer to drive although i think a few mm high will see it sitting better.

thanks mate, the light aren't 100% yet as is the paintwork. To do the lights you need to flat them back with wet and dry first, then polish, this was just done quickly with a spot pad and some cutting compound to rid of all the major scratches and swirls.

Once the winter's out the way it'll get a full on treatment.  :xmaspresent:

Hi mate mine are similar you couldnt do me a favour could you and explain how you did the lights in a little more detail, and also what polish do you use on the paintwork
