pyr0 · 2004-10-27T00:03:27+00:00

yesterday was the greatest day in the history of VW's...... ok maybe not but it was pretty damn good, Adam_C, Kikko and vw_addict, came round and we got to work on my bus 🙂 this is the result or rather after math :P thanks boys enjoy this is how it all started....dubs everywhere some silly poses with kikko adam getting started cause we were mucking around too much (drinks break 😉 ) even kikko got in on the action (1st time ever) and as the afternoon went on..... the front/ side done.... my favourite of the bus 😀 and how could i forget the whole crew....thanks lads as in the pic from left to right: tim (vw_addict) luke (me, pyr0) fish as everyone calls him :P (kikko) and adam (Adam_C)
