THANK YOU FOR ALL THE SUPPORT ON MY VIDEOS! THANKS HARRY!
FOUND NEW SEATS TODAY!!!!! JUSRT GOT HOME THEY ARE COOL! TUNE IN TMOZ ILL SHOW THEM :D
McLovin the car vlogs😉
Harry Main so amped to watch this transformation!
Use a Sharpie to restore the trim haha
Harry I personally would try just adjusting the cable where it attaches to the throttle body on the engine. Probably just need readjusting
Use a heat gun for the plastics it will lift all of the oils that are trapped
I much prefer this Harry.. I feel like he’s going back on himself when Skegs was around
Not sure what you mean mate but thanks a lot glad you are enjoying the new content
Harry Main I think you’re going back to being yourself again, in my eyes you went through a stage of what looked like you didn’t know what you wanted 👍🏽
Refreshing to see something new besides a 7 or 7.5 R nice choice Harry man👊
Nice mate
If you take your time and do it right you could have a lovely motor. Don’t go down the 20 valve route been done to death. Do handling weight reduction/brakes before you mess about with engine mods. Good luck enjoying the videos agains cheers
GTECHNIQ C4 PERMANENT TRIM RESTORER don’t use a heat gun please
I’m with you mate he’s going to sketchy and not very permanent
Bryan Mulcahy thanks" I've struggled to find better than autoglym trim restore.. but it washes off with rain :( will try this on my mk2gti
@@souljar__ you can also use concept vista,what i have heard that is really good and last for a really long time :)
OneDriftMaster cheers will also look at this product 👍
That Rover in the back ground is amazing !!!
Get over to Ryan and buy it
ITS HAPPENING!! YESS!!! I paint cars for a living and your best bet for the paint work is to polish it like you said and see how she cleans up with a polishing mop then if the paint looks a bit shabby still then your better off taking it to a paint shop and get them to colour code the trims while they do it! Can’t wait for the next blog mate👍🏼💙
Thanks JK!
Cheap easy trick for the trims . Sunflower oil after a few coats it comes up a treat and lasts. Done it for years. Make sure to wipe throughly after though or bits will cling
That car actually suits you bro you should keep it in your garage as they are so easy to be stolen.
I know mate for sure!
Bbs rs’s and lower than a smack heads morals,smooth engine bay vr6 lump,paint and straighten whole car paint original colour,leave everything els factory 🤙👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
You can use a heat gun. Use it carefully and it will bring the colour back then put some trim restorer on top. Works a treat
Okay mate will do!
Have you ever tried DIY Hydro Dipping Harry? I feel like that's something you would like doing, and would be good for car and BMX parts modding.
Yes mate I did a BMX frame once it was a total mess actually looks okay though
damn the mk2 is a good looking car, i got a mk3 vr6 myself :D
Engine swap 1.8t bam engine or vr6 👌🙏🤙
Jack Smith perfect😏🤙🏼
Yes mate
Do it🙌 do it🙌do it
Stock vr6 lumps aren’t all that special but the 1.8 with some good cabs is with it
Sound of modified vr6 tho
I love that your doing more stuff with your cars I think the T6 will come out amazing and your mk2 will be sick
Awesome mate thanks a lot for the comment and stay tuned new video tonight at 6:45
I buzz of you harry , looking forward to the build
Best thing I found to restore the trims is a Heat gun but make sure there clean before you use the heat gun
Okay mate awesome thanks for that
@@harrymain no worries
Heat gun for the plastic trims dude
no dont fucking tell people to use heat guns, it will draw out the "fat" of the plastic and after a while when it starts drying again it will start to crack and you wont be able to save it.
yep this guy knows will look even worse after a little while after using a heat gun.. get some proper bumper restoration stuff
MetropoL^ calm down mate
We might not agree on the JDM thing, but as someone who has worked on cars for longer than you've been alive, this is great. So looking forward to seeing how you get on.
Awesome mate! I do really like Japanese cars I just think they feel a lot cheaper than German cars
Cherry Blossom boot polish on the trims
Use the liquid one,worked a treat on my van and still looks good after a year
Nice bro,when u gonna upload another street bmx video?
Hi mate next couple of days just waiting for my ankle to feel 100%
Stick a faaaarking honda turbo engine or a 1.8 20v turbo lump in it! G60 steelies ftw mate. 9.5 all round but dont stretch them like a caaaaant
Yehhhhhhh man!
Yes Harry! More videos like this please! 😎👍
Thanks mate!
Cherry blossom boot polish, a few coats works amazingly well for black trim.
If you want a full project.
Engine
Paint job
Interior
Convert 2 2.0 tsi engine from a Mk5 gti
I've owned a Mk5 gti great engines with a remap.. Go all out man make it a show car. Id go chrome bbs wheels rather than bandits
It's a mk2 golf it needs carbs not a mk5 golf engine :D
@@Legit_Idiot nah. Needs a good gti engine of a Mk5. Thanks for your opinion tho lol..
@@kjbhonda2645 Haha I'm old school. I'm sure the mk5 is a lot of fun I just love the sound of carbs :D
I have a mk3 golf that had faded trim and bumpers, I took them off used some scotch pads on them and sprayed them matt black, still look like new almost 2 years later.
Can't wait to see the band steelies always look sick
Yes mate band Steelers are actually insane
Clay the whole car. The paint will look 200% better
Yes mate next on the list for sure
Remove the side plastics and replace them with custom aftermarket side trimming..... Just and idea that might help improve for a better look!
Yes mate totally agree!
That golf is surprisingly nice can’t wait to see mods 👍
Thanks mate
Should try and get an old pickup caddy, stick a ramp in the back and jump over it. Have bike racks Fitted in it as well. Fun summer car.
Yes mate they are awesome cars how are you bro?
Hi Harry I am vw mad I have a mk2 golf 1.6 driver 3 door also we have a mk3 gti 3 door and a mk5 golf we did have a caddy but the mk3 gti will be broken for spares so if you need some seats keep me in mind, I have a 20vt and various bits for a conversion. Haha
Hi Harry I'm pleased you seem to be editing out any swearing on your vids. Please keep doing so and also LOVE the mk2! :D
Awesome ⭐️
I sprayed all mine with plastic trim spray works a treat ! Permanent and looks fresh!!! They sell it in Halfords
Now this is the content I like to watch Golf Mark 2 first of all you need to drop a VR6 engine in that baby get rid of that little teeny weeny 1.6 engine right away secondly you need the big bumper conversion small bumpers just don't do it for me you need a Jetta front end Grill and headlights definitely need to drop the Recaro leather trim you need to put Porsche door handles on the list is endless with the Golf Mark 2 there's so much you can do but if you really want to push the big power drop on R32 turbo in that bad boy now you're Talkin my language
One of the best engines ever made
Ha ha yes mate all of the above is insane! Do you have any more information on the big bumper conversions?
eBay my brother eBay also try the German eBay hope this helps
I use bees wax spray on my bumpers and trims and for your clutch you will need to tighten the cable and lube it up love the new videos Harry would like you to ride some bmx and you’re dirt jump bike and pit bike soon as the weather in the uk is warmer keep up the good work bro 👍🏿👍🏿
love the rover sd1 in the background. Reminds me of my dad when i first met him. he had a sliver one.
That’s awesome mate such a cool comment
Harry Main cheers mate. Love the content and keep up the good work
For the door handles you only need to unscrew 2 screws to remove them, the plastic trim try Wurth trim and can be found on eBay
Great video. Looking forward to more mods.
Same!
Jenko is your man with golfs lad you’ve rode with him 👍👍
Who is that?
Chris?
Revolembodave bud
For the trims use a heatgun, it works great, they will look like brand-new!
Until they go brittle and snap, there's was one spot on mine where the previous owner gave that a go and I had to replace the front bumper because of it, just destroyed the plastic. C4 trim restorer or boiled linseed oil all the way 👍
Autotek black bumper and trim aerosol paint is the best bet. Permanent fix and looks completely Oe I’ve used it for loads of cars now.
No way man I will check this out sounds really good
That sd1 in the background looks mint
You might want to try getting the colour back by using a heat gun running back and forth not staying in one spot for to long. We use this method to bring back faded colours on motocross bike plastics. It melts a slight layer to reveal the original colour underneath. There maybe some vids on here to show you what I mean.
Yes mate seems pretty bad in the long run for the plastics now?
Believe me or not but you can you cherry shoe polish let it dry and a few coats of lacquer look like new 😁 welcome to the golf gang currently got a mk1 golf under full restoration
No way man that is insane I’m so envious of your mark one ha ha
Use cherry blossom shoe polish on the black trims - sounds daft but you gotta try it to believe it!
awesome great project for the channel
Thanks a lot Lee
Yes lad..... cant wait too see how it turns out 🔥🔥🔥
I know mate same!
Deffo liking the banded steelies idea tho. How wide you going on them? And stretched tyre aswell?
Yes mainy loving the golf it is a beast or will be a beast. For them door trims me dad used kiwi shoe polish years ago on his worked a treat so worth a try. I drop the gift for the Tbox before at your neighbour with the st focus wouldn't fit in the letter box 👍if you need a hand on any van or car mods let me know mate am pretty handy had lots of cars and done lots of mods over the years 👍👌
Okay awesome mate I’m heading over there tonight or tomorrow I will have a word with the guy next door looking forward to it mate thanks a lot it means a lot and I’m very excited ha ha
No problem mate anytime let me know if you need any help with the mega ramp you spoke about always up for a big project, or even mods on car or van 👍👌
Hey so basically if you get a heat gun you can restore the trim and it usually goes darker but if it’s not perfect just top it up with more trim restorer
Awesome mate fantastic for that
Yes harry
Dude, i have to say that golf is sick, id use gtechnic c4 on the trim it does wonders and last a long time also a polksh and paint correction and thats all it needs for the exterior 👌
Yes mate thanks for that
This content is class mate its good to see you enjoying yourself, can't wait to see how good both the t6 and mk2 look
Thanks a lot mate what do you drive? Cheers for the comment my brother
@@harrymain no problem mate, i ride a 2018 ktm duke, these vids are education tho i feel like im learning from them and say if i was to ever put coilovers on a car i could come back and watch the vids cheers bro
Harrys back !!!
Paint your bumpers use the vw factory texture colours which use a matting paste so they will look like factory again....
Mk2 debaged grill will be a must . Loving the content...
Excited as I just bought a Mk2 as well 👍
You doing any vids on it?
Yup gotta get a good camera but may just use my phone for the mean time.
Furniture oil for your trim fella, any type should work. Will bring them back to black and stay like it for ages.
What type of furniture oil?
To take them door handle plates off you don’t need to take the door card off. Under the chrome trim there’s a bolt and in the door jam the other side of the handle near the gold locking mech there is another bolt. Take theses two bolts out and the handle will come off and the door plate will come off after that! Done this to my mk2 this week 🤙🏼
Okay fantastic mate I will do this in today’s video!
Did you find much damage once you had removed them
Harry Main not really, mine wasn’t rusty it just needed a bit of a polish to make it shiny again 👍🏼
Black leather Kiwi Shoe Dye is what you need to use on your trim. There is nothing that works as well. I use it on my 30 year old Audi.
You should be able to polish off the rust stains as well. Get a RO polisher and a light polish. Should clean it up nicely.
Okay fantastic mate thanks for this
For the plastics use a heat gun brings the oils back up and looks as good as when they came out the factory
But don’t use to much heat only use a bit and then use a bit of trim restorer
Smooth peanut butter a few times the plastic will absorb the oil from it, youll have to do it a few times but itll be back to black, if not meguiars do a really good black trim restorer do the same few times and theyll be good as new!
Awesome mate thanks for that!
Yo Harry, used to chat to you when you had the Scoob back in the day!
As for restoring the trim and bumpers.... you can do it with a heat gun/blow torch there’s plenty of TH-cam vids of it being done . Or if you’re not that brave, colour code them and get the 16v big bumpers fitted.
Gladly come down and give you a lift anytime with van or car . I’ve got a t5.1 and wr1 Subaru 🚙👍🏻👍🏻
That’s awesome mate! Yes mate I feel like the heat gun is a good fix and is an obvious one but I actually feel like it could damage the trim is really easily in the long run
This is the best thing that's been on your channel can't wait to see you mod it you stole that at £1200 2 black VW beasts in the fleet
Yes mate! The collection is growing buzzing
Thats mint mate love all the VW stuff.Sure you can use a heat gun on the plastics to bring the black back. Get some g60 arches aswell there abit wider. Cant wait to see some more content about VWs! And bmx,mtb and frenchys lol.
Thanks for the comment mate stock do you are into the Volkswagen content that’s crazy I was wondering if there was bigger arches interesting to know they off g60! Thanks for that
If your after banded the g60 steels look good banded look good aswell.
I've got a mk2f polo and I sprayed my plastics black with plastic spray paint then use Lin seed oil to put the oils back into the dryer out plastic
Awesome mate thanks for that dude
Can't wait for more content on the golf can't see what's going to happen with it. Can't wait to see the seats and you got a decent deal there
Yes mate mega deal on golf!
Get it down to bug jam at Santa pod Harry see how it goes down the quarter mile 😎 bugs bands butts bikes and beers all weekend 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🤘🤘
Yes mate seems like a really cool van but actually maybe I will take a trip there this year!
Harry Main do it 👍 there's nothing you can't get for the projects down there and it's only 25 miles from Corby, winner winner 🙌
Spray paint the plastic with wheel spray pain bro it works really good looks brand new
I suppose I will check that out
And for plastic use back to black trim restor and do a couple coats
Use a heat gun for the trims mate brings them up like new and for the paint I would recommend auto finesse revitalise kit with dual action polishing machine it's a easy kit to use as well.
Thanks for the information dude
Get some Wurth Plastic Care for the trims, works a treat
If you paint plastics in a 2 pot satin black instead of gloss they just look like new plastics, works for interior too :)
Okay awesome mate thanks for that
I ride bmx , I ride mtb , I’m a Volkswagen enthusiast and go to the shows , your channel is just ace 👍🏻
Thanks a lot mate I’m really glad you like the content and I can’t wait to show you guys where I’m going with this thanks for the ongoing support mate it really does mean a lot
The gulf is super sick looking forward to future restorations cheers and congratulations my friend.
Thanks John mate
Top project for the channel
Excellent mate
YOU CAN USE BLACK SHOE POLISH ON THEM, put it on and buff it off, does take time but has worked sick on my k10 micra
You can use a blow torch to melt the rubber or plastic to bring the oils back to the surface and it leaves it with a dark black colour you should try it
Thanks a lot mate!
I had a few of these, great cars! Probably a money pit now being 20+ years old
Yes mate we will see how it goes I don’t think I can lose much money as it only £1000 also
@@harrymain yeah man youll enjoy it! Drop a 20v turbo engine in it :)
Exited to see the journey of the car, would definitely like to see some chill street sessions
Arch extensions and hubcentric spacers for the van, if mk2 needs spraying delete door handles rear wiper, fit throttle bodies on it,
Yes mate seems Legit!
Go over the plastic trims with a heat gun mate. It melts the surface and brings out the original colour of the trim back out. Just make sure you don't stay in one spot too long or it will bugger the material.
Yes mate seems sketchy!
@@harrymain It's pretty easy, just look at the material as you're going over it. I've done loads.
Loving the variety on the channel at the mo, especially the old school golf! Top work Harry! Have fun modding your new motor mate!
Hey Steve thanks a lot for the comment mate it means a lot yes mate I’m very very excited about the new content for the cars et cetera Cheers for the comment mate
Who needs Adam LZ with his private mechanic and massive workshop when you Harry main and a driveway
Haha driveway bangers
Chuck a 20valve in it harry! 😎
Cherry blossom shoe polish should last a good 6 months and looks oem. Clean them off with sugar soap then apply 5 or 6 coats.. Other than that, I would look at using truck bed paint, nice textured durable finish 👌
Yes mate thanks for the comment it’s been really helpful
@@harrymain no worries.. There's a Facebook group dedicated to cherry blossom 😂
My mates got one with Porsche 988 wheels, new exhaust, cone air filter, some interior changes and smoked rear lights
That’s awesome mate
If you want a really good look for either the van or car ..... it has to be Rayvern Hydraulics ... check him out Harry!!!!
Im a simple man .i hear scouse , i like and subscribe
I used forever black bumper and trim dye kit for mine 👍🏼
That’s awesome mate thanks for that
Heat gun will pull the oils out the old trim and make it dark again but with the age of them it'll make them brittle, you can buy textured paint and do all the plastics to blend it all together
Okay mate great thanks
If you're after any decals making or sunstrip/tinted gel plates message our insta👌
Moooore car vids!!
Deal!
My buddy had a mk2 gold like dark olive green ish witc bronze wheels it's so sick
It’s awesome mate
I bought my black 3door mk2 for £600 runs perfect and everything
If I had that offer I would 100% buy it for that price. I personally prefer the mk1 due to the larger grill with out the extra light cut outs. Maybe that’s something you can look into changing?
Yes mate deafly going to lose the badge & the two middle lights That’s for sure I prefer the mark one for the rear windscreen
That sd1 is sick in the back
What is that??
you should try and restore it back to original! original seats, steering wheel, wheels etc and fully restore the body and trims, would be a collectors item them and you can sell back to your mate for big $$$ hahaha, good luck with the project will be sweet once its finished.
Golfs are so cheap and easy to get spares and parts for.
Thanks for the comment David ha ha it would be funny
"koch nano magic plast care" is just great!
Smooth peanut butter brings the trims out nice and black genuinely works not bullshitting
Thanks a lot mate I just feel like it isn’t a permanent fix though
Yeah I get you tends to last longer than cockpit shine and other stuff cause of the oils nd stuff
Boiled linseed oil works great for keeping the plastic's black
Awesome mate thanks for the help
Hot air gun bit of art to do the plastics but works well
Ace man!
1200!!! U lucky shit a mk 2 is one of my dream cars 😂
