the back bumper is on and hopefully weather depending the gsi kit will be on but not painted thanks to greggsi for the rear arches
ive also undersealed all the arches and the underneath of the car so its all nice and shiny black being lowered and bigger brakes at the weekend all being well
will get some daylight pics up tomorrow
oh and thanks .dean. for the help today even with your one hand
and thanks to greggsi for kindly donating a post97 rear bumper and a strengthening kit
