I know people say these replica fibre glass front bumpers are not a great fit but does anyone have a photo of one fitted please?

Cost me just over 300 quid in total to get recovered as the police had there people tow me off the motor way even tho I didn't want them too as I had a guy on the way. Then I had to pay the other recovery bloke to get me home.


Fortunately tho the intercooler and rad are ok. Took a bit of a bashing and the pipe came off the rad. As it was dark all I could see was coolant everywhere so assumed the rad was dead but iv been lucky. Just need a new bumper really
 
Jesus. What size was the bloody badger???

BIG!!!

Worst bit was the undertray went under the passenger wheel when I was braking so keeping the thing in a straight line was a nightmare. Could have ended up a lot worse.
 
I dropped my car of today to have the inlet manifold taken off and have all the valves, flaps etc completely cleaned of carbon deposits. Should have done it the last time but I wanted it back for the Crail Revo day lol.

Gordon of Gwagenz are buddy. The guy that's done all the work on the car so far I told you about. He's just finished doin another mk2 golf 20vt conversion so I wanted to get in there before he gets busy again lol. He'll have it till next week as he'll be fitting my Revo intake as well.
 
Hi all, well I decided not to have my DPF deleted until a few have had MOT's done later next year.
 
My Mot is due in Jan so going to get it done early Jan then get the Dpf delete done.

im going to get the insides removed and dpf pipe refitted.
