may just end up better to buy the replica stuff and get it painted, you'll send a while on here trying to find one in good nick that's the right colour. esp if you want the black lip down the bottom

cars off the road for the rest of the week, and for the most part of the w.e. Removed everything off the front, including the cooler. I'm re-installing the cooler, as I did a half ass job last time and even though you could only see the imperfections up close, I wasnt happy with it. So cooler should be fitted up nice and neatly. If I cant get another bumper by sat, ill go down to the wreckers and grab anything for the time being, just so I can drive it again. But I am thinking of getting a new set of bumpers, and upper trims sprayed up, so it looks the goods for EASTERNATS!!!!!! Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
