Fair enough, each to their own and all that mate, what don't you like about it just out of curiosity?
I could always fit a ph3 one like everyone else if that would be better?

Nah you couldn't do that, you'd need to fit clones and raise it 20mm! I
When I first saw your bumper I thought it looked like it wasn't fitted properly, but I really like the black on top now I've seen it properly!

I wanted to put another coat of polish and wax on it today but since I spent most of the day waiting for shitty link to deliver my tires that should have been here tuesday and then the afternoon fitting tires and trying to track my car on the ground using 2 jacks as the gauges wont go on the wheels and the car won't go on the ramp
And now its raining, so unless its alright tomorrow it won't be getting done!

Cheers fella
As far as the ph2 goes, I like it, and it doesn't look like every other car with a ph3 front bumper fitted and as per my new sticker on the rear window "f*ck the haters" hehe

This car is mint in the flesh. Love the ph2 front bumper. It is somthing really different from the ph3 conversions and i think it looks so much better for it!

See, PH2 doens't have to be shit, seriously though I am glad you like it, I'm loving your gold wheels though, suit the colour so well!
OK so we have some new, decent images fianlly for anyone who didn't come to FCS

Going to be honest here as good as it looks and runs. It needs more phase 1.

I no what your saying, Me & Mrs puglove wanted to do somthing different with her car, the plan was to mate the to (rub strip bit) of a ph2 bumper to the bottom of a ph3 but after cutting them up there is just no way of joining them sensibly,
But what you have done with keeping the top black looks real smart and really out the box thinking

Have you ever thought of vinyl wrapping the roof gloss black? I think it would finish it off nicely with the gloss bumpers.

+1 for this question, obviously i couldnt make FCS (thanks to my wrist excerciser supervisors), so i didnt get a chance to get a look at them, but they REALLY DO look like crystals from the pics!
Looks really damn good though mark, wish mine looked as nice!

Nope, I put them on 2 days before FCS, I was still unsure when I was drilling into my bodywork to fit them

I like your thinking but joining it would be so fecking hard to do, get the fiberglass and filler out, bet you could make it work with a bit of time and thought..........
As for the black, I just thought it would look a bit shit and the same as everyone elses if it was all green, haha

Vinyl..............lol, it looks shit really quick though, its scratches so easily! I have thought about smoothing the gutters out many times which would then mean painting the roof.........which then brought up the question of black or green......

I said vinyl as it's cheap/easy to remove if you don't like it ect... but yeah either way black roof would look epic!
