Re: Sics Consolidated Faded Moderns Thread - 2003 E320 & 2006 Golf Mk5 GTI

I ran one of these 3-4 years ago. Most of these were rubbish even then. That one was at the crossroads where it could be saved or turn to shit.

Lead is shite. Plastic filler is ideal but that will be a mission to straighten - best left to whoever paints it tbh.
