FAO Johnf - Front bumper now fitted :)

Well just got home from the body shop and they have done a really good job. Not cheap but worth every penny. Lights a bit naff, will get better photos tommorrow !

The body shop is called brackenash in leyland. The guy that did it is a perfectionist and they have a full heated booth so the paint is exceptional.

I just need to modify my undertray to accept the new front end and refit the inner arches !

Really happy with the results

Almost a cwest, the side haven\'t got a slit in them. The intercooler only goes back another 3in :p Both air filters are running behind it and the rad is stood up to take the advantage of the increased amount of cool air

I think i\'ll eventually get some side skirts, maybe a scoot CF bonnet, a RE-A undertray and a smallish spoiler for it !

Only other question is what temp does the thermostat open at, im seeing some very good temps on water and air !
