After the car arrived i was cleaning the car when I realised the bumpers were slightly different colours some(front bumper) wasn't even in prime, So went and bout sand paper,primer, few cans or asteroid silver and few cans of clear, now just waiting to put skirts back on and re-align the front,

Couple of days later i pulled the cd player out to change it and i was confronted with spaghetti it was literary a mess, was the DODGYEST CD install ive seen and ofcourse it didn't even work so im currently trying to find original cabling as the owner before me ****ed it,

Ive got a fair bit of mdf of a mate and im about to in the next week or so build a custom parcel and boot install,

Taylor
