Thought I would have a play and paint the section on the front bumper as I thought there was a bit too much white, Came out ok I reckon, what do you think?
Also painted the grill gloss black a few weeks ago.

Thats what i thought, it does make it look a bit wider. Just need it lowering now.

That looks really good, even though i'm generally a mixed about blinging (with a few notable exceptions). But that really works well.

Stick an oblong number plate on as well Stu, makes 'em look wider and gives a bit more airflow to the rads.

you just need to get rid of the orange indicators now
Hi Dave, how do you do that? Is it easy?
I like the idea of losing the orange, had never noticed until you mentioned it.

Your "Bongo" actually looks happy, as if its smiling..... Mine is awful at mo. Just fixed a blown hose so done a coolant change, that was massive for me as I am not car minded at all...
Off to Gatwick tonight so will see if I did the job properly

Cheers Dave, but I dont dislike the orange that much to go chopping my lights up, think I will leave them as they are.
How does Ste come up with these things, I'd never even noticed the orange bit in there till you said.
