painting

I have a 78 rabbit that I just sand blasted and did body work to. I'm on the painting stage as of right now, I also extended the rear tire fenders by about an inch. Any suggestions for what rims I should put on that are 16X8 in the front and 16X10 in the back for a 4X100 bolt pattern? Thank you...

anyone know the color code of that green tone of the photos below ... I need the right code to perform the painting ... Thanks! Enviado de meu MI 5 usando Tapatalk

So, a non chemical way to remove paint. what is everyone's favorites? I am looking to strip my Rabbit truck for painting. So not just a small area but the whole truck.

I own this & although the photos do not show. There are many crack lines on the paint . This is not the original color. I was thinking either painting the same color scheme or a totally new different color. Not looking to reproduce an original color. The engine is from a '63 beetle. The rear is...

Getting ready to have my truck repainted this winter while stored. I have heard about a dozen different ways, paints and prices. What have you used and paid? And about how much paint and clear coat does it really take? I' am a mechanic not a painter.:confused:

Hi all! This is a page for my Corrado SLC. It was imported from the USA there are about 10 years and has not driven up there two years ago when I bought it at its first owner. Currently, it has 62,000 km. She just had a complete painting of the original color, a full exhaust Bastuck...

Hey everyone, Anyone else having an issue with the fabric coming off from the inside of the doors? I have a 4 door 2007 Rabbit and all of the doors are having the same issue. The fabric (right by where your arm rests) is separating form that thin layer of foam behind it. I have tried re...

As a new member I have been enjoying the site. Just bought a used 2013 SEL over the weekend, chose used as we traditionally only put 5000 miles per year it has 13,000.00 now. When we learned the SEL was 2013’s top of the line and we could get all of the “R” features with exception of the...

I removed the front grill and emblem and began the process of painting them some radical colors. Then I used a heat gun to remove my ugly bumper stickers and the plastic-chrome 2.5 badge. I also removed my corroded antenna. Just some fun stuff. Post-grill...

had this r line for a year and soon lowering and putting a quad exhaust :)

Guys, After picking up my Tig on Monday, I am thinking about painting the wheels black for a bit more of a unique look. I have 2014 SEL in Pepper Grey with 18" New York alloys. Any photos of Pepepr Grey with black New York alloys greatly appreciated :cool:

I have an '07 Jetta, 87K miles and it seems to be falling apart. Purchased used from VW dealer in 2011. EPC light comes on DAILY after driving for 10 - 15 mins on the hwy commute to work. Tried different fuel grades & seems to act-up more frequently with lower grade fuel. Occasionally...

I've been creeping around here for a while now and I'm finally posting something. I'm thinking about painting/plasti-dipping my front grill. I search and only really found 1 cw 4 door with a black oem grill (most are of 2 doors with the black rub strips). The one I found also had a dipped...

Anyone had success painting exhaust tip of 2.5 SE? Please share your method (paint, technique etc.) Thanks,

Painted the "egg crate" slats black on the grille. Also, Debadged and removed dealer sticker for a cleaner look.

Hi, did any one know if it is possible to get just the top of our rabbit painted. (Like a black top for a candy white rabbit?) How much would that cost?~

I just got ahold of this nice little 1979 rabbit diesel. Has anyone ever seen this fender decal before? Is it original or something someone might have added? At closer look it seems like a hand painting or maybe stencil painting.
