Replace the rear bumper as well as there was some crappy butchered holes for the exhaust which were rubbish and didnt even fit the exhaust! and a massive hole drilled in the bumper for the wiring for the number plate light
-
Loads better :cool:

:afro:

not sure the number plate looks right :undecided: should it not be in a recess in the lower part of the bumper? you can buy the from big boys toys :cool:
other than that :cool: :wink:
-
:huh: he has REMOVED the flushed one and gone back to standard :wink:

Hooray, much better than that nasty flushed effort.

oh yes and the best part was when i finally cleared all the dust of the tail gate where it had been sat in my room turns out the plinth on the rear is colour coded as well! the paint isnt perfect and some bits are flat but its perfect for what i need, plan is to respray the car at some point
and the best part i think is i swapped a 24 crate of stella for it :grin: :cool: bargin!
-
ah i see that'll teach me for just looking at the pretty pictures :grin: i quite like the smooth one bit chavy but looked nice on the oaky. geez that number plate job looks horrid :sick:
jammie git... i need an alpine white tail gate i've got 3 cans of stella and some roller blades if you know anyone who wants to swap :grin:
-
Good work fella, bonus points WIN!
-
indeed £10 for a oak green tailgate = win
-
Very good work! Now get that rear wiper in the correct position :tongue:
-
I think they look better in the lay-flat position rather than cutting across the rear screen permanently.
-
Old set up was a shocker Joe! love the new OE look, your car deserves it... what's next?
Edit, agree on the correct wiper position should be reinstated :wink:
like this...
