First i made the fog light. I didnt have anything similar in my spare parts stash, so i made the light from scratch.

Edit on 29/12/2010
I get a lot of questions regarding the fog lamp, so here i will explain how the light was made.
I used as follow:

1 spare part from the kit- probably from different VW model. Edge cut off.
2 part of the U-Boats torpedo shoot. I used the round bit for the lens frame.
3 Pin. I cut the top, and polished it for the lens. Inside the hole was drilled, and filled with Alclad Chrome. The lens detail was engraved using the sewing pin. (8).
4 Absorbers found in the shoe box. I used yellow for the bulb.
5 Brass tubing to make the mount.
6 Hexagonal nut from MIG.
7 Stretched sprue to make the bolt.
8 Sewing pin to engrave the lens detail.

I like where this is going. The rotted lower sections on the doors look very real. Another masterpiece.
