Making the Passat Estate DE-CHROMED!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 вер 2024
- This car has a lot of chrome scattered around it, and to make it more stealthy I painted the front grill and rear badge black, aswell as debadging the rear end.
Let me know your thoughts!

Yes Brad going for the whole murdered out look- can't wait to see what you turn this passat into
I wouldn’t remove the side trims to paint them, they will either break or the clips will all need replacing
Just carefully mask them off and plasticoat them, same as the window chrome, although it may be easier to use wrap on the window areas
Yeah I was thinking that, will do thanks mate 👌
I wish you put Sad 2.0 tit on the back :(
😂😂
Well just found your channel and watched like 4 hours in a row of videos.. Mostly the mk4 gti and now the Passat! Cool to see, i recently bought a mk5 gti and so happy with it. Keep up the vids
I like the chrome on a Passat, but this is really cool. It looks a lot better than I would have thought!
Looks so much better after now up front. Maybe have a look at Lamin-X tint sheets for the headlights, a light smoke/tint would look good. As for the window surrounds, Guess you could either take loads of time cleaning and then masking everything off before spraying... or what could be easier! Find some matt black 3M vinyl wrap sheets/strips and wrap them up. Personally, I'd wrap the window surrounds, maybe de-wiper the rear too and as everyone else has mentioned, coils, wheels, lows. Done!
It's starting to look amazing mate
Cheers mate
The black really help
The chrome strip on the doors are they just stuck on with that sticky tape stuff or is there something else holding them on. I dont want to take mine off and find oot it's just not tape holding them on.
Just wrap around the windows alot easier. The rear quarter chromes are part of the whole glass assembly 👍
Cars taking shape mate! I'm wanting to get a mk5 1.9 tdi after all this is over, gti front and r32 back bumpers and 19 inch helios would be mint for a 3dr mk5
Looking good! Gotta say tho 9:27 in, how close are you parked to the side of that wall!? Fairplay haha
😂😂 it looks like the wall but it's actually some plastic warehouse style door things
To do your window surronds id wrap them , i found a dechrome kit on ebay which is basicly like a 10m thin strip of wrap to do the window surrounds cost me £20 which im going to attempt myself
Definitely looking better
Awesome job!
I am glad I stumbled onto your channel.
much better now!
Hey bud..You could also use Hammerite - Tornado-Red paint your calipers....The VW Badges..you could always go for the black-German-army badge, back & front..or..gunmetal-them..so they look darker-metal....Was wondering..would a "clear-lacquer" over the top as it dries might give it a bit of extra-gloss?....7:27 Mask the area..then get a small artist-brush..and use Hammerite-Black on them..Removing them could cause damage..although u could try a suppose.
Rear wiper delete too would make rear end look a lot cleaner too!
you should get some matt black alloys and tinted lights to match the murder look
I like the chrome grill reminds me of the r32
Brad, what's the wheel PCD, because I think if you gave it the VW Helios wheels and coilovers, it will look epic 🔥
Yeah I wouldn't mind them 👌
Helios are quality just a shame they have a tendency to cracking
Have you thought of getting some lows?
Yeah it's coming soon 👌
Looks good bro😂 just pimping my own passat 3bg atm 👌🏼😂
How did you take off the front driver/passenger lower chrome piece the one under the mirror?
should have sanded it down for more better tacking because will come off easy
Looks good man!
Cheers bro 👍
Mask and dip the chrome window surround.... you can't remove them. Same with the bumper inserts and door inserts.... if you remove them they break and you'll need new ones and they ain't cheap
Awesome video, could you tell me how much roughly insurance ends up costing for this diesel daily? Interested
8:11 Have you paintet the chrome strip over the side and trunk? Im wondering about painting them black
window trim use black tape lol seen a lot guys use it and works
Coming along tidy pal
Hows that stuff hold up wen pressure wash ya car?
9:28. Why so close to garage door
I would just buy a little touch up paint for the bonnet
Get the 20mm vinyl tape off ebay for around your window trim dude...
if you had the 2.0 turbo in this passat rhe gti badge could have stayed
I know you’re trying to loose the chrome. But thought about some chrome exhaust tips to slide over yours? Or some gloss blacks ones?
Always loved chrome tips yeah they'll definitely pop 👌
Might be worth a shot in the future then
Wrap the chrome trims around the windows mate :)
How comes you didnt put your number plate on the passat?
Do the bottom grills on the front bumper just pop out? I will be doing this to my passat looks great
Yeah they do 👍
OMG I love it all black. Nice job. And now....let’s talk about what Plasti-dip does to your lungs...WTF mate?
try to tape the windows and paint it over
is the passat b6 2.0 tdi good for a first car? i heard the 2.0 tdi had a lot of problems, any thoughts?
Go for the 1.9 mate.Have a 58 plate estate and it was a little slow but with a soft remap,runs like a dream.Bought it at 127k last year in May.Now it's got 163k with tyres and oile and filters and an injector failed.Now it depends how the car was taken care of.
At least you didn’t use the GTI valance technique of spraying...
Funny what you learn from experience ☺️
to be honest the grill is the worst part of the cromed part. i like the side with chrome and everything. but the front with a stained chrome looks so bad. i have a red passat with chrome package. and well they dont look to apealing.
The emblems would have been better just as chrome. Not a fan of black emblems on a black car... For the window trim you just gotta mask the car and plastidip them.
I masked them all
Needs a de wiper 🤪👌🏼
My girl said she likes your accent
Honestly sounds dodgy as hell but dechrome round your windows with electricians tape. Did my 5.5 with it and it looks okay considering.
I think fly eye rear lights and top brake light too man, would look fully sick!
Have you ever considered getting a motorbike?
Never really been interested in them, but I've never been on one so I won't know until I try 👌
BWTV ah fair enough, nothing can prepare you for the thrill of a motorbike, if you complete a cbt(Compulsory basic training) you are eligible for a 125cc bike.
heey what made you to get Passat? I thought you are goin for S3 8l?
It's more of a daily car, will be buying another car in a month or so
@@BWTV ok . good then.
S3 8l is probably the best choice.
basically everything with bam engine is the best choice budget vice
Black on black...yeah good taste lol put some black wheels to 🤡 ...that spray will hold till the first wap wash
Sorry for the irrelevant question but what is your opinion on e46 M3's?
Bad as fuck best m3 they ever made drive one if you haven't 👍
I just bought a 330 e46 not m3 but their so nice to drive so I could imagine the m3 is just the same. I have had many cars including mk4 golf r32 and my bmw is far better and a lot faster.
Jay Attwell must be a great car, I have a 1.8T golf now but want the m3 so bad
Rhys Jackson waiting for the day 🤞
I got a Mk4 1.8t running 200bhp bang on 293 tq on coil overs that's my daily love it had it 3years m3 is a great car but owning one is expensive for a daily
With plastidip you dont need to remove the window trim. Mask the area around them a bit. Any excess you can rub off with your finger.
Get xenon lights bro
Why did VW even make this stock, I hate the chrome bumper it looks ugly.
Wrap the door trims don't spray them
like like
Wrap the door chrome. Best bet
Lmao just seen this
