well the car is nearly back together. i got the bumpers and arches all back on the car and sprayed up. the front wheels are still waiting to go on once the tracking as been sorted out. next step is to finish spraying up the spoiler and get it fitted.
what do you lot think so far?

boot is gettin debadged tomorrow aswell as hopefully gettin the spoiler fitted. its not the best spray job ever but it'll do as the whole car needs a really good mop and polish! im getting some morrettes for it that will b sprayed in the same colour as the bumpers so not sure what to do with the side repeaters and rear lights as of yet

well i spent the afternoon giving the rear end abit of a clean up and a tudy.
i debadged it and fitted the spoiler which i sprayed yesteraday. i also decided to give the tailgate a polish but couldnt be bothered to cut back the paint on the rest of the car.

mine was exactly the same and so was a mate of mine. its the bottom corners of the lights where it catches and i've also fount that when the steel bumper bar is removed it fits better. it just needs a bit of time fettling and it'll fit.....in the end
