and after a long hard weeks work, i managed to get it looking like this^^^ full mk2 front end, gsi front and rear bumpers, brand spankin new wings and a good polish:D not bad eh??

[dj_wudgey]

whats the point off changing it to a mk2 there arent enought mk1's left i think you should have sorted the wing and left it!!!!!

[nova---chris]

Nice work. do like mk1s but tbh id rather it be restored as a mk2 than be scrapped for damage.

I almost mk2'd mk mk1 when the wing got smashed up and all there was in the breakers was mk2 bits!
Looks good either way mate, as long as you're happy with the result!:thumb:
