Rocco Slammed, matt black and vinyled.......

[monsween]

Well where to start :)

O.........K....... So this is what happens when you take a cheap, yet rather cool, runaround and let the Scottish at it....

The bonnet was sprayed a few weeks back with blackboard paint, because lifes too short not to do it!



But first a Scottish cuppa before the work begins-





job 1 - slammage... off with the old (the angle grinder tells it's own tale..)



and on with the new.. ebay jobbies, but there bound to be better than the old, which can only be described as.. made of jelly..





jobs a good 'un..



Now this was all we had planned for today, but since we still had time to kill we thought we'd get the roof done and sprayed matt black, it was always on the cards as the paint was not just pink instead of red.. it was basically white!

Job 2- matt black roof-



then Marc spied something...



uh-oh



it was time to deviate a plan......



it was decepticon time!!! very random i know.. but the urge was too big to resist!

Job 3 - vinyl roof











not perfect.. but considering we had never done this before, it shall more than do -



Quick look at the driveway for this evenings antics..........

What's special about a Scottish cuppa? Is it deep-fried?

That's a rum collection of old bangers you've got there

[filmidget]

Not an inconsiderable collection of beards either...

I'm very envious of the beards....

Good work dude, that's what VW's are all about, dicking around with your mates!

Glad you boys like it, i was tempted to sell the rocco a few weeks ago but this has just re-lit the enjoyment factor.

I was a little aprehensive about putting it up as thought i may get slayed for ruining it. To me its a bit of fun :)

One problem is its now lower than the supra, so much for a daily ;)

Those coilies hottuning ones? Bought ones that looked identical off ebay :D And had the identical seized bolt issue. Great fun to cut off arent they!

Mines also slammed, I dont actually have much of a problem with mine scraping, worst was nearly getting stuck getting onto a ferry. Very rarely have a problem with speed bumps etc.. its perfect for a daily!

Another transformers fan! Great to see

Looks very unique.

YEa it wouldnt be a problem if i hadn't lowered it so much. I;ve fooked the camber up and need to take another look at that tomorrow more than likely

[monsween]

the coilies were from an ebay company uk-performance-uk.

Also still looking for ideas what to do next so fire the idea's in :)

Induction through the wing?
Retro 80's Air Ram?

The list could be endless

...go lower....

Although i've found with mine, at the front especially, if i was to go any lower i officially run out of camber adjustment, and the wheels would rub against the spring. Currently im running it with the camber dialled out as much as possible, and i've got about 8mm clearance.
