here ya go,much easier than i anticipated,although being in *a ford bodyshop with all the tools available did help ;D
took us 3 1/2 hours in the end,bit pissed off as i ve chipped a few bits ,but hey ho its not a show/tarts car *and no doubt on the way to reading tommorrow it ll receive a few more!!!
only other issue i have is that now i ve had so many bits painted off the car ,its starting to look a bit like a patchwork quilt *so think a re spray is on the cards next

Looks well cool buddy! Completley changes the look of your bug, brilliant!

Funnily enough i was thinking earlier about ur V5 front end and wether it would be on for Reading :)

Are u gonna get fogs for it, or ya gonna leave it alone? :)

nah,i hate fogs,too many saxo boys with em on all year round ::),plus with it so low ,it would just be another thing to break
ive put the air scoops in the grill in readiness for bigger brakes at some point in the future!!!!!!!!!

the rear is nt standard anymore, i dont want to make it look just like a yellow v5sport,it started life as a v5 sport bumper but has had a few ' porschetrimr improvements' along the way! ;)
