Yeh I am but theres a few things im also not happy with a few things.
Such as a few scratches which are hard to make out but i know they are there....
Also the pait to me seams quite 'orange pealy' which I hope is somethings that can be corrected by a decent detailier/bodyshop in the near future
It does look mint though tbf I will post piks up as soon as I get them off the camera
Still need to do front bumper and skirts etc also got a few other things to fit

Ok so got the car back after 8 weeks at the bodyshop! Its been home for a week now, heres some piks ive taken during the last week.
There is still LOADS to do and some days I just cba to do anything...im sure some of you feel the same sometimes...
Day I got it back -
Trial fit of bumper -
Then that evening I started to fit the coilovers
Only managed to get one side done as it was too late so it went into the garage for the night
Got up the next day quite early and started on the other side and got that on in about 45 min an hour.
Luke and Dan then came round to help me finish it and get the rears on BIG THANKS TO THEM 2 FOR HELPING!
Came across a problem on the passenger side rear though as the bolt on top of the damper was rounded off.....
After a while of trying out came the grinder
I then put the wheels on so I could get a vauge idea of what it would look like in te near future
Looking good so I took it for a quick drive to test suspension and get it settled
Then it rained to back in the garage

I then had a rest for a day or 2 and then when I found the time I started to get the arches and bumper ready.
New screws for everything so I put the arch ones in
I used Araldite for the brackets on the arches as from past experience they are very weak and can break when being tightened up...
Grill -
I then put the splitter and grill on the bumper
And another trial fit in the garage along with an arch this time
It was then off to Telford to get the exhaust done on Saturday, as you can see in the piks the old exhaust had seen better days
And thats it so far I didnt get a pik of the finished exhaust but I will soon, I went for a cat back system with middle box and a 3.5inch outward rolled tip
