Big thanx for Zayyan for supplying the front black grills they scrubed up pretty nicely mate :thumb:

got them fitted, look the part now, took the motorsport badges off the rear just left with a 325i boot badge for the back which will stay. Gonna fit the eyebrows back on soon as I get some adhesive, pleased with the result, sure you will agree. Next plan will be a clean plain bonnet and possibly new front end bumper as its rieger kit all round cept for the front with the m-tech bumper, be better to finish it off as Panesar pointed out at the ace meet!

I like your thinking, "if I sell it"

God forbid any slight bump on new bumper, if you keep the old one.....you would have a spare to chuck on!

i'd have to sell it either way mate, got enough grief keeping old car parts in the house as it is! Looking into some possibilities for a new front end, but that bumper will eventually go. Your first in line Steve :) !

Nice mate!

Although I dont mean to be rude but I have to ask...what was the thinkin behind the vents in the bonnet? :nono: Other than that, car looks mint. I know you mentioned you were gonna replace the bonnet with a clean one but did it come like that or something?

Hope you dont take too much offence mate.

cheers guys, yeah Nix the car came as it was including the strange taste in bonnet vents, i got old pics of when i first bought it and its come a long way. Next thing after I've done the front end is some work on the engine, after seeing Karan's car in action each month spurs me on to get the 2.7 conversion done, aiming to do that late spring early summer. Fingers crossed.
