Just front and rear bumper to do now and you can rename the thread "Sams not so Scruffy Mk3!"  :laugh:

Looks so much better from the pics on page 1 mate.  :wink: :smiley:

I take it you didn't use a flexible plastic primer before painting your door strips then seeing as they've cracked already?

Looking really tidy compared to when you first got it... what happened to the dodgy rear suspension mount with the weight in it?  :grin:

yeah its on my list of things to do, bumpers and wheels are top of the list though

I would like to swap them for some of the flat/flush style handles but i think i need a welder to do that
