So since iv moved out my mum's house on the good side of chorley iv had no issues with my car being left. Now on the not so good side of chorley my passenger fog grill went missing. -_-.

So not only did I have to buy a new one but I also had to spray it as I had only recently just done mine. So decided to do both again as one may be more shiny then the other.

Iv also started to fix a push start for some reason as it was given to me though what the hell.

And also sprayed the bottom of front bumper section under grill.

Washed, polished, grills back on!

As iv been mostly trying to get car looking decent again and replacing parts that got stolen. Now I'm back in place I can carry on with exhaust.

I said I was going to cut my wheel well out iv decided not to go ahead with that. But I am going to keep st look so a guy that iv recently become friendly with is going to chop the st backbox up and convert it in to pipe work and use original ends. And either just before or after getting my springs on. All to come soon (he says)
