That is looking fantastic.
Judging by the crispness of lines and corners (that shot showing A-pillar, door, wing and bonnet all converging) you've chosen the company carrying out the work very well indeed - that looks excellent.

I'm really looking forward to seeing this one all done (and in the flesh) - your choice of mods has been A1

That looks really good, how much is the chicken costing you?

Also mate, any pics from the accident damage it previously suffered,

Saw some pics the other day of one getting repaired and it was pretty scary stuff.

Cost is £1400 plus vat but with some negotiation to offset the vat

You mean magpie21 s damaged repaired, of cutters. nothing like that!!!

No pics of damage. Had a good look round when bought and looked like paint and bolt on panels only.

Yes, it was some repair. Think it was made to look worse as they cut it back much further than usual. I'm not sure but I wouldn't of thought that was a cat d? More likely cat c.

I bought the seats of him. Nice bloke!

You might be out of luck im afraid. Might be at my friends unit still

If your wheel comes off quickly we may have time to run up there!

Just the front spoiler to fit. They should of fitted, kidney grills, side vents, rear spoiler, mirror caps, and the bonnet vents were already on.

Pics arrived,

Spoke to him and he said I will be chuffed. Think he's right. Nice to see the amount of stripping down they did. I'm sure a lot of companies wouldn't bother!









Lets just say I'm chuffed!
