naah lol I used a jack, but I keep a wheel under there incase the car falls - never know like lol. So I'd much prefer it to land on my wheel than on tarmack and bugger up my brakes, smash the driveshafts and make a lot of damage...and noise! 
haha, good thinking, ill have to do that
by the way, why has the "ftw" in my last post come up with a link with a description saying I'm a twat lol

yeah I will today you know... I was going to, but meh. I do anyway when I wash the car, get the hose up there and around. so they're not THAT dirty really.
aah ok will do... A lot probably. I'll give 'em all a good scrub then! Hey Jenk - what's the difference between 96 GTi bumpers. and the facelifted ones?

96 gti bumpers are not to disimalar to yours if im not mistaken yours is the earlier version of the pre facelift with the bumpers having an inset all the way around (nicer in my opinion) but the gti ones are colour coded and they have a rubber trim round the bumpers
ahh right thanks mate!... now I understand!... but wasn't there phases though? Thought there was - say, Facelifted Phase 1, and then a phase 2 which was on 97 onwards models?

Yeah there was, correct me if I'm wrong but I think in 96 they made the facelift, and the bumpers fit onto our pre's pretty easily, then they changed the facelifts again in 97, which require abit more work to get on.... I think it was something like that..... Search for it because I remember reading a few threads with all the details on it and how to fit them...
yeah remember Brummy on this mentioning something... I'm sure there are 2 phases you know. Little tweaks to make the buyers think they were buying something different lol noot!. But yeah the phase 1 ones aren't as nice... so I'll make it harder for myself by getting 97 ones instead.
have a look at this, post 12 there's a guide .......

Thats a 96 gti, its kind of a mid facelift. The front will fit like a glove if you can find one, nicer than facelift to in my opinion.
thanks Jenk! Can't really see it properly there, does it share the same foglight grill? Can you take another pic maybe a little closer? By the way - my arches weren't that bad at all you know, very clean considering!

My Old 'Red-Shed' .. about a week after I got it with alloys fitted instead of the crappy steels it came with.yeah remember Brummy on this mentioning something...

some time after, with facelifted bumpers fitted..
Can easily be done with a little persuasion
