Completely eating the front of the car, got far enough back to crack a chunk off the harmonic balancer, and destroying the Calais nosecone.. but it did leave the guard extensions in perfect condition, and he chucked them in for free Going back for wagon window surrounds, petrol tank/pumps, aftermarket panhard bar, hopefully a drummed diff. And I don't have to pay for any of it He's throwing it in with the doors/hatch that I bought. There's more parts but I cant remember everything.. If I want the RB30 and a disc brake diff I have to pay extra, might go halves with my Dad for the disc brake diff or something, so i can have the gears and he can have the disc setup. Rant.
