I've been given the green light to get some goodies by the missus, i'm not under the thumb but she's not daft, and she'd have noticed straight off!!!.
So i'll be purchasing a carbon bonnet, spoiler and p1 splitter.
which means i'll have a V5 spoiler and bonnet in cool grey for sale.

I'm sure your find some mate, it does seem a common problem though. My mates got a UK classic and we replaced some of the guides on his a couple of weeks ago, for the same thing
