Not firing on all cylinders me atm...

Swapped back to incandescent and steady, flash. Well, that's THE nearside. Offside needs headlight out I think, and I've got small hands lol

Edit: through the wheel arch... :p

I haven’t done it myself, but I think some of the bulbs can be accessed by partially undoing the inner wheel liner and going in from the wheel well? I’m not sure but hopefully someone else will chime in? (It’d certainly be easier than ‘bumper off’).

Not convinced the noodle is doing much you know. I'll try for a pic but my 10mm lift on the 4 bolts across the top of the bumper are doing more...

Sitting like this as I type...

With some more playing I'll get the gap smaller for sure...

So front bumber needs sanding and painting, but it's holding and with recent 10mm add to the front coilovers I'm not scraping anywhere... :) Bumper will now get an easier life now not getting bashed and scraped all over the show.

Flex plate is on the back burner. I'll need to get a replacement ASAP I know but it does have 2 tight bolts and the snapped one is still half doing its job.... half, but I drove it for ages with one of the nuts a full 360 degrees loose so feel half confident it's 'ok' for now with the little I drive it these days.

Get a sick bag ready....

:eek:

LMAO... and because it's not seen as never take passengers it's been like it since I got it, but as I'm now chipping away and the faults and damaged bits, this is on the list.

What is it called anyone? Can't find one anywhere as not sure of its name..
