Finally another member in reading :p I've basically got 2 cars worth of spares kicking about depending what you need (got more windows than I know what to do with) and A1 is my closest breakers so you must be nearby, let me know what you need and I'll have a look when im back home, no gsi bumper unfortunately!

Hope you get it back to mint condition mate my Jamaican yellow SR got stolen and absolutely trashed about two years ago so few words of encouragement it can be done if you put the time and effort into it if not make imrovements in the process. Its taken me the full two years to do it but it's been well worth it in the end so stick in there pal!

Gutted for you mate as parts are getting hard to find and commanding stupid sums of money, good look finding or replacing what was taken but it shouldn't be a massive task, if you've got deep pockets. Silk Violets will always get a good response on here good look putting it back together and its a shame them mirrors weren't taken though imo
