So im going to be getting block paving soon which is great as ill have more usable space - however what isnt great is the fact my exhaust catches
Its the centre silencer catching - however a mate is going to sort the whole thing .... No point in going stainless as i will most likely fancy more power at a later date
Hawk eyed amongst you may notice the wheels are off - im going to have them refurbed again so stuck the rostyles on for now - also fitted is my uber uber rare jalousie - or louvres - which will be painted black over winter and fitted properly (as well as remiving the flaps and the respray/arch roll/black bumpers)
Also decided to start a round headlight conversion

Lol right -
Here are those basic shops #mspaint skills
As is with full length grill
Extended bonnet, indicator gaps extended/welded with full length grill
Extended bonnet and indicator gaps - standard grill
Extended wing gaps, standard bonnet and grill
Please bear in mind the bumper will be pulled in and black and it will probably have a small mk1 golf splitter
The inners or the front panel may also be painted too

Nah badboy bonnets look wank
Heres a real life one of what i tried to shop
Only difference being my bonnet if extended would sit an inch lower... Could also trim like this one (it has extended c1 wings already)

Isnt there a proper piece of grill that will go round those lights? the slatted one, or no standard grill just looks like a part has fallen off the car

Or I'd be inclined to paint the bits underneath the grill black
