how much did you pay for the bumper no way has all that damage happened during the delivery, thats the only thing in buying this and not being able to see them
£450 and £25 delivery , i know that dude , previous owner is just denying all knowledge of it wich is a load of bullshit . Not happy to say the least !
 how much!!!! i knew they were expensive but didnt think they sold for that much second hand, how much are they new then,
i was thinking about £200-£250 second hand 
Jus looked on irmscher website and its £784 for a new one 
They retail at about £980 or something like that Lol . They usually go on CCUK for about 400 to 450 + standard bumper in return !

Totally lost interest in the car at the moment  . Phoned up and cancelled the respray the other day . One of my lights is buggered , anti roll bars knocking , flocks coming away from the dash in places , speedlines are curbed  . Dont know what to do with it at the moment .
Been looking at a few different cars but been thinking about getting another B .
Just dont know wether to carry on with it or split it and get something else

Ha if you drive down here chris  . And don't worry scott its staying till pvs for certain , I've cancelled the full respray but its still having airdam repaired and resprayed and full colourcode .
However , there's a garage outside my house that I could possibly be renting , if I can get it I want to get another B and do it up off the road . This means I can keep the C as my daily and have the B as my project .
Want an arden 1.6 sport to start with , maybe build it up to an XE but time will tell  .

Well been buying a few things for the car to tidy it up before pvs . Got some new GM flat blades on the way , New stubby aerial as all the paint came off my old one , New opel center caps for the speedlines and a few other little odd pieces .
When the car goes into the bodyshop in a couple weeks time ill be taking the car down on steelies so I can have the speedlines refurbed while the cars away .
This weekend I have to change my dash again and a few other bits as some of the flock has lifted away and cracked . So that's being sent back and redone .
Other jobs I have to do before PVS are split and spray my new headlight as my drivers side one at the moment is buggered . Respray my strut brace as its scratched . Get mother to sew up my drivers side seat as there's a small hole appearing !
When the cars back from the bodyshop and before pvs I'm gonna be Machine polishing the bits of the car that aren't getting new paint to remove as many small scratches as possible .
So all in all got a fair bit to do but should all be worth it in a couple weeks !

Normally around 7-7:30. I tend to leave mine at 5:30 and get to Santa pod around half 7. If you're coming up the same way as me I can meet you at some services and convoy up? I'll be going m3 - m25 etc
