back from working away but had work the weekend so didnt get much done

collected bumpers from body shop wasnt happy with the rear so its being done again
front spliter fitted terrible so ive had to cut it about to get it to fit and goes back to painters tomorow
front bumper i had a night mare as i bought a genuine smoothed gti bumper didnt check if it would fit i just
geussed it would went to fit it and the middle of the bumper plastic was about an inch lower so i had to cut it all away to get it to fit
lucky the grille hides it all

roof lining is nearly done took 4 cans bit is a bit patchy still so will get it done this week once thats done interior can go back in

i carbon wrapped the centre console again as it had a scratch in it which annoyed me and also started steering wheel collum surround

Where did you get it from? I take it that the splitter was bigger than the real bumper?

[josh newman]

yeah it stuck out passed the bumper spent 6 hours tonight putting interior back in nearly complete just clocks , wheel and centre console
front bumper on rear needs to be fitted and so does splitter , wheels going for paint next week to match interior and maybe wing mirror covers
