Looks nice and shiny, just one issue you need to get a dual exhasut for the rear of the rocco, it would look deadly :yes: ps like the r32 exhaust system on the gti :lol:

The other car is a TDI with the full R32 kit. And watch this space for dual exhaust may be something happening before you know it.

That is good to hear :yes: i think with the dual exhaust your car will look bonkers :nod: :yummy: Have you thought of any design of how to place them (aka like abt or caractere or r-type or anything else...)?
Anyway here is a picture i have found on fb. I liked it but it didnt have any side skirts or front bumper like yours, so i think on yours they will look much better :nod: :yes:

How much is a full detail? I heard its not advisable to have afull detail unless your car is like a year old because they remove a thin layer of paint with the chemicals etc no?

Also to all White Roc Owners, I have those stupid tar marks on my car, how do I get rid of them (without using my finger!)

Geordie bought the products & detailed his car himself. in the grand scheme of paint thicknesses detailing removes next to nothing.

To remove tar marks go grab yourself some tar & adhesive remover (autoglym do a version)

Thanks for the comments guys, I cannot beleive how much grime and tar was on the car as i clayed it! The rear end was the worst and is spotless and lovely and smooth now next was just on the lower doors just behind the wheels. There doesnt seem to be anything sticking to it now since its had 2 coats of swissvax glacier, i would really reccomend this product.
