[auzzy-b]

Whats the plans with the engine, anything fancy or just to keep standard?

[napalm_27]

Getting there.
Mk2 bumper just doesnt go with a mk1 front end tho ;)

[napalm_27]

it was just a trial fit mate
the mk1 lights actually fit okish as the wings are cut for that style indicator but grill is for mk2 :tard: but hey people these days lol
but going to smooth them off and locate the indicators somewere else
then use the mk2 lights and thinking of doing a full flip front and fibreglassing all the front end together :thumb:

[Pillar]

it could work!! this one pulled it off ok!
