    proper chuffed with myself today, decided to tackle the front end and get some non scary brakes on. now i have cheated a little with the front end but i dont care as it looks good and that was the main aim

    start with this



    remove bumper and find this



    ****, worse than i thought , oh well test my idea..



    yep that works, ok take it off again and prep it to put on properly



    and fitted



    back on the floor :D looks epic imo, or at least it will when its got some new front wings



    oh and whilst i was faffing same fitted the brakes for me, i almost head butted the screen when testing so its safe to say they are much better



    i also tried to straighten the back end, it is better but not much

    the old one isnt actually rotten just surface rust and bent. it will get a new complete front end eventually, for now all it needs to do is last me till the mot runs out in june so for now i just want it looks better.
