the front sits perfect, its all coming together.
The fogs remind me of the new fiesta foglights, youve done a great job moulding the bumper for them to fit

i have always done my own painting but not a full car, going to have a word with a bloke around corner, he does it cheap if you prep it all yourself.

I've got a drivers door window and a couple of door hinges if you ever need them. Just took them off the girlfriends car after she apparently "scratched" the car on a bollard but actually dented the whole side of her car. Picked up a whole drivers door for £30 from a scrappy in wellingborough. Came with everything except the door card and mirror.

Never been to that one... in fact i didnt even know there was one there. I went to a scrappy in finedon rd industrial estate. Must be new-ish because it wasn't on google earth when i searched for it. I only managed to find it because they were advertising a 206 for breaking on ebay.
