cheers lads, appreciate the feedback
calidus + jahunt: yh i reli think the airdam will touch up the front end n finish it off. agreed with them being pricey tho lol.
cheers james, good when we were putting them on, seeing the change, looks so much better!!!
yh i reckon the colour was the best one for it!

bit of bad news sunday morning
basically me ne a bunch of the lads drove down to western super mare for a drink, went to the clubs n stuff (i wasnt drinkin, was drivin lol) and when i had dropped my mate off in chippenham i was drivin home n heard a weird noise comin from my engine, thought it was me exhaust n thought i could sort it out the next mornin....
but the next mornin when my mate (spankyjames) came ova, i went to turn it over n fuk all happened reli. so we took the cam belt cover off to find a metal ring lodged in the inlet cam, which we later discovered was off the inlet side tensioner, and all the ball bearings were gone n was jus wobbling about 
outlet side, wat it should look like:
inlet side how it looks now:
so result is, i need new cambelt kit, may replace the water pump as mechanics apparently advise u to now 
and got to keep my fingers crossed i havent damaged the valves, otherwise mayb a engine conversion may be in order lol but funds are to low at the mo  haha
cheers, Aaron
