frustrated! I originally removed my bumper and got impatient and ended up taking just the skin off now realised how close I was to removing it properly with the bar and brackets and fog lights attached I now am faced with the daunting task fixing the bumper support the brackets and the fog light brackets so frustraiting just if I was a little more patient originally ! huff !

lots more sanding done I'm keen to get it road worthy need to put my number plate somewhere I have been thinking maybe do the car a really cool camo job with the writing and effects. I still have MOT for six months so want to use it as not sure if car with get they another mot with these mods? thanks for all the comments I hope it looks mad because it's taken a lot of my energy!
I put some paint on to see what it will kinda look like
....
That looks pretty damn awesome in paint mate, nice work! Only bit I can see from that pic that looks a bit ropey is the grill at the moment, but I'm sure it wouldn't take a man of your caliber long to sort that.
Keep up the great work, and fair play to you for pushing the boundries!
