stick a dab of underseal/waxoyl on whatever goes in the holes before you poke them in mate. Don't want to encourage more rust than is necessary :thumbsup:

You need to get rid of that rear wiper now the spoilers on. Just looks like a big fat piece of gay! Anyway keep at it. I'm looking forward to seeing the splitter on!

Wiper is going. The spare wiper hole at the front has a grommet which fits, forgot to borrow one from the scrappy on the last visit though.

Splitter is on and looks awesome... resembles the old Rapid Fit Mondeos from BTCC now. No idea why, it just has that looks. I'm finally happy with how it's starting to look now :P

Pics to come

Here she is :P

I also sprayed the bumper trim inset things since they'd faded to an off silver. Okay, that's a lie, its electrical tape... but I'm pretty handy with a stanley life from my plastic modelling days so it doesnt really notice... I'll spray them one day!! :thumbsup:

One day I'll take it off and saw it down and bond the middle and then spray it up black... but I got home from work after an early start and just wanted to get it fitted. Really happy with how it's come out :P

Just need to get her individulized and lowered to stiffen her up a little, anti roll bars front and rear, some decent wheels when I can afford it and then she's done until the VVC go's in

I'll take it off when the car go's to the bodyshop for the frontend respray in a few months and bond/spray it up properly. :(

Well I can see why they didnt score too well in their NCAP tests. There isnt a lot of metal under that bumper.
