the bumper is from germaniatec off german ebay, very good fit, but they package them bad and it squaches them, but a little bake in the oven makes them pop back into shape,

total i have spent about £500-£700 on all the bits, like bumper, coilovers wheels etc.

i hope to get some of that back as im selling my wheels and my old suspension as they have fk springs fitted (£70)

the gear knob n gaitor were again ebay

also painted and fitted the de wiper gromit



then i have just fitted the lcr splitter and grilles to the front bumper, man where they a sh!t fit, one of the bad bits about non gen parts lol but got the number plate holder on too



on a side note, my locking filler cap came, and i've ordered another carbon goodie, also ordered pressed german plates but chickend out and got the gb logo lol
