You should be smiling, that's a huge difference and very nice indeed, I always had a soft spot for that type of front bumper, they called it the top sport over here at the time.

Very nice.

I think I want to stay clear of tiger seal......... but yeah face-lift bumpers make a HUGEEEE difference, I love the way mine looks, except I haven't fitted the side skirts yet.

Tiger seal is fine, as long as you have a solvent to remove the excess. Mine are not as perfect as I would like them to be, as they are fibre glass & not genuine! But you ruled by what you have in your pocket at the time!:-o

I was lucky & the guy who painted them for me helped me fit the lot.

Thanks to all the people that commented, it's good hear. Especially when you add the cost at the end. To top it all off my a/c compressor has just packed up :cry:

Very nice actually considering doing the same to mine, what did it end up costing you if you don't mind me asking? For the Front bumper

It's wasn't to bad to be fair! I got a few results. Got front & rear bumper from a guy on here (sorry whoever it was I forget your name) £150 they were in a bit of a state. Side skirts were £110 delivered, all front grilles £90 delivered (cheers David) then all the paint work was through a mates father in law £300. Now saving for a cat back exhaust :D
