Michael P Posted November 1, 2009 Author Share Posted November 1, 2009 well in sunny staffordshire its !Removed! it down. this is how my morning has gone: i woke up at 8.30, got changed and went outside "well i tried on your car but it started to rain" "well can you poke it into the garage?" "i;m not moving the bench" "ill move it" "no you're not, you'll wait until it stops raining or do it next weekend" so in the beautiful, wide awake, lively, really good mood i'm in, i walk off and go back to bed. we'll see what happens.

That is a dad-ish kind of thing to do :P I bet you can't stop looking out of the window at it! he got the front bumper off, that was a complete faff never to be repeated!! i went shopping to cheer myself up and came back to find the car on ramps with a bumper hanging off! i am pleased with it, with the alloys on it will look positively wizard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aph1101 Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 It looks so much better with the colour coded-ness :D The alloys will really set the car off. I expect pictures :) How are they coming along? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
