Cheers m8 the doors are usually the last thing people notice, it's a really subtle mod. Here's a better pic of the side :)

No mate, it was a friend of mine, he usually fixes up old VWs for a living, but was happy to take this on :)

The welding up the door handle holes went easy enough, but wiring up the solenoid kit wasn't so easy, we had teething problems which have now all been ironed out (I hope)

The car used to be metallic grey, but decided black would look nicer, so went for full respray too while it was in the workshop B)
