Why is it the bumpers on rex\'s are a pain in the rear to fit. After a whole day playin around finally got it siting right after a lot of messin. But worth in in the end, looks the muts nuts now. All the gaps are even.

can do but prefer to wait a bit until its been painted, whole car that is. Got it cheap because it was a bit tatty. Needs 1. bumper fitting proper. (done) 2. scab of rust on roof by sunroof! and 3. scrape on the wing. Then Going to give it a lick of paint. Don\'t recon I\'ll need to take them off again for painting because the gaps are all ok on front and back bumper. One of the reasons the front bumper didn\'t line up proper, is there\'s a small plate spot welded onto the front panel which wing and the bumper bolts to was twisted but repairable. Nothing a couple of hours and a couple of hammers couldn’t sort out.

The motor is sweet, runs and goes fine so that’s the main hassle at the back of me mind.

There is bit of an issue at the arse end, It clunks when I change gear and under breaking and throttle, Like a house brick in the right of the boot. Also pulls to the left and tries to snake, Basically trying to kill me. But this is something small to deal with once it\'s painted.
All the bushes are good no play so seems like a diff mount problem without looking, fingers crossed.

About it really should be nice solid rex in couple weeks or so.
