Went breakers this morning to get some mounts for the front bumper and then B&Q to get some rivets for the grille as it had a few snapped clips

and got a half decent shot of my mates Williams Clio :



Next thing to do is get some crystal headlamps, indicators and fogs, but not sure if smoked would look better.

then get the oxidised paint sorted.

Ditch the quads imo. They look ace with the grille above.

See sometimes im feeling that & other times im thinking it takes the distinct look away from the car, plus I like my GTi badge which would look silly on a badgeless

If your getting a grille make sure you get a bonrath grille or at least be a bit handy with a dremel and no nails.

the bottom bit of trim didnt fit over the grille as it was designed not to have one, but i liked the look of the red under the lights so had to do some trimming and bond it on, has been clamped overnight.

used "evostik Serious Stuff ultimate Adhesive" sticks like shit to a blanket.

glad you guys like it, showed my missus and she just rolled her eyes and said, "when was the last time you bought me flowers"

What are D90's James?

These are the rims im hoping to get:



8.5 inch wide 17's on 205/40's stretched should look quite sexual
