Please take the mk2 crap off and put it back to a mk1. Sadly as stated mk1's don't make mk2's. The front bumper will never fit right and the grill and looks wrong with them.

And the abyss rear has to be a burnt, but stamp on visciously first.

Looks like it was once a real tidy car.

Gibbo
15-09-09, 11:12 PM
lol the mk2 parts will be comeing off will be geting the gte bumpers and spoiler the back bumper will be cut up
