Lights look great mate but think yes the bumper from the lb would defo look better as it doesn't have that ugly line across the middle, much smoother look.

Intercooler is a 15 min job max. 4 bolts (inc recirc valve), two clips, done! Then reverse. Easy.

I am taking mine off to fit a turbo blanket and was going to paint mine silver . Thought about polishing it but sure you'll end up having to do it every week.

Looking great Craig!!! Lots of things youve done on my 'to do' list!! Couple of Qs if you dont mind? What was your original rear spoiler? do you have any other pics of it (really quite taken with it!!). I take it you dont need to change the rear bumper to use bugeye lights? What cost involved and how easy/difficult it is to do? Liking it alot mate!!!
Hopefully, mine will be progressing within the year, I hope lol
