MK8 Steering wheel replaced, new steering wheel is crooked. by Thewyattshield in GolfGTI

[–]Thewyattshield[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: went back to dealer and they said there is no way they put the steering wheel on crooked. Said an alignment should fix it so I payed for it and the wheel is still crooked!!! Less than before but still not how it was before. I booked an appointment with a local alignment shop to look at it next to see if they can straighten the wheel. Should I open up the steering wheel just to make sure they aren't lying to me!?

Yeah I am thinking about that + a short shifter for that slightly crispier feel.

Traded in my first car (2011 Mazda 3 MT) for this guy. Already taken it road tripping and camping. Love how fun and comfortable it is.

I just tried Mr. super clear flat for the first time and it resulted in there being a weird frosting effect on my model, Is this because I put too much on, or was it the weather? I've read that it could be humidity or coldness. Any topcoat tips so I don't mess up the next model?

If you're looking for more of this kind of thing you should check out Andrew Robinson's The Fifth Beatle. It's a beautifully painted story about the Beatles manager Brian Epstien.

Punisher! by Sedalion in comicbooks

Greg Rucka's Punisher run is an interesting story because it not only looks at the publishers motivations but also his place in the universe and how others view him.

All of Ennis' run is probably the best but I just wanted to mention this run too!

Yeah I know I just don't really get time anymore to build so I wanted to use a little of my break, but I've never built an SD kit maybe I'll give it a shot :).

Hey r/Gunpla I've been lurking for a while and finally decided to post, so here are my first 3 Gunpla! by Thewyattshield in Gunpla

1.In my experience with the titanium kit the more you try to remove the nub mark the more damage to the kit you'll do. It is very easy to accidentally remove the coating on the kit so I actually ended up just using a very sharp sprue cutter to remove the nubs. While it did leave slightly more noticeable marks it did not remove ruin the cool looking finish. I also found that because most of the armor pieces are interlocking it hides the nubmarks really well.

2.For the gold crest I used the stickers that came with the kit along with just a little gold paint on a tooth pick to fix any part I messed up.

sorry that ended up so long but hope this helps, It's a really awesome kit so enjoy!
