Yup and I'm currently utilising F1 technology with my detachable nose cone.
 Or in other words my bumper is currently held on with bungee cords :grin:

Quit my job on Wed so once I get some spare time I'll address some issues that are annoying me.

Fog lamps replaced and working. Indicators sorted, need some OEM connectors but bullets will do for the time being.
Didn't take photo's as it was peeing with rain and my fingers were numb. Having a play with the bumper skin I picked up yonks ago, also the mk2 lasted a whole day on the 60mile commute before breaking (at least it got me home) need a new power steering belt and and just bought a new alternator belt which had disappeared. Did manage to coax 38mpg out of the KR though on the run

If it weren't raining I would have a proper go at removing my front bumper brackets.

Cheers buddy. Hoping to get more out the ABF when it's fully EFi, was driving like and elderly nun though.
Spare skin was smoothed, by that I mean no indicators. Apparently the guy was charged 120.00 for it but it was a naff job so I got it for free. Going to redo it, but better. Plastic welding is fun, but do it in a well ventilated area or you get trail on bright objects :grin: Got some bike LED's, just trying it out for fun and if it looks rubbish I can still use it.

Been trying to figure out how to fit power steering and alternator belts just now.

Easy stuf, alts got a allen key bolt in the engine cover to loosen off so u can move the alternator, this is from memory though.
Just look and go at it. Haha. Good luck either way buddy
