Pmsl sorry about the hinges mate  :evil:
The guy has a few shiny bits like battery cover/strut brace etc but nothing that takes my fancy.I can see your going to be my competition for shiny engine bay bits now ha ha.

As for the sunglasses holder i got it off a guy who brings stuff over from america.You can get knock off ones on ebay apparently but a genuine one came up so i snapped his hand off lol.
Im also after the american style wing mirror glass that says Objects in the rear view mirror etc.So giz a shout if you see esome.
I will message the guy to see if he has another sunglasses holder if you like mate?


As for the Flyeyes.Im still undecided,i think i will wait until its washed again and see how it fairs.I didnt go for jet black as i think it would make the rear end unbroken and a bit of a blur.
Time will tell i guess lol. :grin:

Defo be interested in 1 of them sunglasses holder mate.

Will keep a eye out on the mirror glass for ya.

Yeah wasn't really looking for shiney bits and like you the others ain't to my taste. Just want the original bits looking nicer. Missed out on a load of bits on German eBay because someone bought the lot. Should have offered home some cash!!! :(

Valid point - all subframes are the same  :grin: feck knows then, im down 100mm on the front. Just know i can no longer fit a vr splitter so making do with a duck bill


U need a US splitter then mate.

My vr spitter was like a plough aswel mate. What size rims are you running if 17s that will help.

I seem to think you got that off Rhodri?Ive got 2 us splitters now as i couldnt get off the drive with the vr one :(

Share!!!!  :grin:

Im running 15's... standard tyres & rims

Id need a new bumper to fit another splitter but that just means i can play about with smoothing  :cool:
