Well, went out WRHQ and found something very disheartening, my plans of no arches, no side trims and small bumpers came to an abrupt end.

Rear off side wheel arch..


Repairable, but not with my 'skillz'.. G60 arches and big bumpers it is then  :grin:

Tom tidying up the exhaust cut out as it had been 'cut' and bent out the way to stop the Hellfrauds special exhaust knocking on it, I imagine..   (small bumpers looked alright too, eh Chuff!  :sad:)


Mike the star did rear wheel bearing and can now hear my measly 1.3 purring away now the humming has disappeared!

The SJ will have some petrol bought for it for your efforts  :wink:

Talk of donor cars has worked, and found potential victim    :laugh:

Team Syncro at .:WR only pays a couple of hundred for their Syncros, so that one's WAY out of team Syncro's comfort zone.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

No, not porsche.

Wanted RM but now going 5 stud and after a chat with Chuff, island roads and split rims aren't going to play nicely with each other and dishes are expensive  :sad:
