New rear bumper delivered today and went to put it on and the had painted it in zenith grey not platinum! so i rang and they argued for ages but ended up ringing back and offering a full refund for paint or an offer for a courier to pick it up and repaint then re-deliver. I went for the money back option and im now getting it done by the same person who done my wheels.

pics to follow of how bad it was.

So far its cost me £19 for the hoses and Breather filter. Thats for 3 Meters of 6mm hose, 1 Meter of 10mm hose and a breather filter. gunna do the fuel line too next and the the main coolant pipe thats about 15mm that runs around the bottom of the engine bay.

Just to ask, is the 6mm and 10mm the inner diameter?

 

[phillpotts92]

Love the car.
On the front bumper, is it illegal to mount the numberplate in the windscreen?

When I get my facelift on I'd want to do that because it really shows off the bumper
