Sorry about the car mate :cry:

Judging by the fact that you are not selling the front bumper I suppose it's a front end smash. Are any of the following items intact?


Black Kidney??

Clear Front and Side Indicators??


If so I'll have them off you if you can post to Ireland

the side repeaters are led's. the drivers side took the most damage so theres only 1 front indicator left. as for the kidney grill it was just a standard one sprayed with hammerite, it came off when i hit the wall , i do still have it but not sure if its worth selling

Grill looks good from the pic's so I might just take the same route as you did myself.

I'd be interested in just the side indicators so mate. What kind of price have you in mind??

i'll have to see if they come off. i didnt put them on so i'll let you know. if you spray yoyrs you shoulf use hammerite black with the satin finish

also take off the grills that surround the lights and spray them to otherwise itll look odd.
