It's just the bumpstrip isn't the best fit and it wriggles loose at times for some reason

Looks really smart, have you looked at genuine styled mudguards? Only thing i could say could be improved.

Lol don't know hat the craic is with my bumper, I'm paranoid now lol. Just because the previous owner installed parking sensors...that are upside down:/ and re wiring was awful, he hacked through original wire as he had a soundsystem in it before. But Betty got rewired 
I don't know about the exhaust, it's a 2000 2.0 dturbo, single exhaust

Cheers dude! Your's is my favourite 5 door on here. Days of practicing machine polishing seem to work wonders on the car. I'm currently learning how to wet sand and buff out so that I can fix up some stone chips and the likes.
