Cheers. It's a B&Q special (£10 bit of mesh and a rattle can ;])

Just started prepping mine for a respray, new bonnet was needed after a too-close encounter with a deer, and I've decided to add my own unique touches to the front bumper.





Currently making a ducted cover for the driver's side cut-out and will be making a number plate bracket for the passenger side

Although I am considering just meshing the lot, what does everyone think

I see you've added a sunstrip as well. Looks nice mate
I reckon you should just spray the fmic and leave the grill. Maybe fog covers instead of the duct, to give it a smoother look.
Passenger number plate bracket sounds like a cool idea though

Let me know when you're free as well to have a look at my lights matey

I can do Sunday but apart from that my diary is pretty full until Christmas

Maybe the weekend after.

The holes are opened right up so normal fog covers don't fit anymore, but that was deliberate, may have some pics of the cold air duct by the weekend, it is pretty rough at the moment but I started it today, meshing it would be really easy too.

Jon, why not go for something like Duncan Dynamix's new front bumper, would look good.

Also could you PM me the wire layout for the bugeyes headlights as I need to try and make the fit hawkeye headlights, if you don't mind.

Thanks
Ricey

Decided on the vent cover for the drivers side (nearly done), and then number plate bracket and mesh for the passenger side

Without a doubt breaking is the way forward. The used car market has seen better days for sellers.

What you going for next then pal? STI 6 speeds are stronger lol

Sorry Dave but I can't imagine anyone would pay you £5 let alone £3k to strip
