Went to an 'invite only' mini show/bbq at Meguiars HQ yesterday. Cool little meet, had a nice assortment of VAG, Jap, And Oldschool cars too.
Real head turners, that just put ones like mine to shame:



Once that was done it was over to Tamworth for the second all dubs mega meet. A 9 storey carpark reserved just for Vag cars.
Around 400 cars arrived I believe. cool little meet.
Got to show off the smoothed front bumper, and recently retrimmed steering wheel and boot plastics.



And at the last minute the organisers decided it would be cool to get FAB finishing involved and create some trophies for some of the cars involved.
Very happy as came away from that with 1st MK5/6 of the night.  :happy2:

Thanks for the compliments.
Come a long way compared to the first few pages. (or got out of control...probably a better way of putting it)
Nice chatting to you all.
Hope to see some more MK5's coming to the shows, seems to be the same faces lately.

Malvern BVF this weekend. :happy2:

Smoothed front bumper looks good mate. Mine’s had nothing done to it since Early Edition now I’ve got a new toy to play with  :smiley:

No mate. Went to MIVW for the weekend, set out Friday afternoon, just got home couple of hours ago.
Amazing show, lot of attention to detail. But interiors are largely ignored over there.
Def a weekend to return to though, 14 cars in convoy, including an RS5, B7 RS4, B5 RS4, MK4 R32, MK2 GTI, MK1 GTI, A5, Couple A3's
