I wore my fingers nails down scratching all the old glue off the 2 bumper inserts, all you need is the double sided glue stuff and they are ready to use.

looking good andy, putting the original badge back on only makes me think blue stripes would suit it even more, if only in the bumpers, leaving off the side strips.

I really can't see myself turning up in my car. It looks like a taxi now with blue doors and blue bootlid. It still has a smashed up front wing, dented bonnet and half the bodykit missing.

Don't get me wrong I'd love to come over and see you all I just don't want anybody reporting back to Rawli what a state I've let his old car get into. Next few weeks and the respray should be sorted so wild horses won't keep me away after that. :wink:

2 things need doing to complete that rear end

Brand new Mk3 rear wiper arm/blade
Stainless exhaust (mongoose) - 3 or 4 inch rolled in :wink:

2i looks superb, but in the end i think you will go back to the standard wheels like i have done because std is the way forward :D

good move getting rid of those colour coded mirrors, they didnt suit the car at all. i think with it not being lowered anymore the amber indicators and standard wheels will look better than the large wheels imo
