Thanks  :smiley:  Im loving it.  Just tested a neonydium magnet on my spare bumper to see if my No plate will hold okay so I dont have to drill holes in my shiney new gloss black paint. Holds nicely  :party:

It looks really good, i wish my brother did this to his leon fr when he had it.
Only thing i think it needs doing is painting inside the fog lights to hide the red where the grills dont cover.

other than that it looks spot on  :happy2:
