Mk2 Sail Panel Customisation

Note

Before you start, a lot of care is required as the plastic with the badge in is FRAGILE and breaks easily!

Method

With the door sails off the car, apply pressure to the top of the sail to start it separating

Use a 2" scraper and slide it in between the back plate and the plastic front

Work the scraper down between the back plate & front plastic, working it gently all the way

Working the scraper and applying a little pressure, carefully prise the two layers apart - they will eventually seperate.

Once they're apart, either the back or the fronts can be rubbed down and painted. I used 1200grade wet/dry paper on the front of mine, painted & lacqured them to the colour of my car, then had some stickers made up (so you could have what ever you wanted on them)

I glued them back in position with a an epoxy resin, left them to dry for 24hrs and hey presto!

Mine started out as Ghia ones then changed to what I have now
