You started a thread asking if it was a good idea?
But really, pissing £2k away into a £500 car is the stupidest idea I've heard in a while, you could get a new straight shell for a fraction of that, or £2k's worth of something mightier than a 'rocco!
Whether the replies in this thread are arseholeish or not, not one person in 2 pages has said it's even a slightly good idea, including a handful of old VW lovers. Surely that's gotta count for something..? Why ask for an opinion then completely ignore it?
Anyway, sort the bigger dents and crap out and i'll flock the whole car for a quarter of the cost of a respray
