New Rear End
« on: December 03, 2013, 10:55:14 am »
I finally got around to giving it a well deserved rear end overhaul :wink:

I fitted a R32 valance with an SRS diffuser, R32 rear lights, rear wiper delete, new number plate....oh and a wash :happy2:

Before:



After:



Well pleased with the new look  :happy2:

I hope the other half isn't spying on me in here!

I picked the R32 valance up off ebay for £70 I think as it was a while ago and the diffuser was £170 with shipping from srs.de and fits perfectly, well impressed with it. So with the lights, body shop bills not much change from around £450.

I know I couldn't believe it when I found it on ebay with a 'buy it now' price, it was from a breakers yard  :wink:

Got them from this ebay shop, very good service and no documents required.
