Gonna start with the major parts 1st. The cheap quick fixes all door handles, both bumpers, spoiler and mirror. That will set me back £300. Then I will look at how well it matches and see about the spray price of doors, bonnet, boot and seals.

It's a lot of money and im still thinking about selling it in July for a Zafira GSI.

Splitter spray

Post by bradley1983 »

I have decided I don't like body colour splitters so today I'm gonna remove my tatty faded black one and prime and gloss black and lacquer. And the re fit when my bumper is done.

Splitter has cracked at the back so it's had a crap gloss for now.

I have everything but the bumper mounts. I was smart to keep all my old bits. Got to work out how to re attach my headlight washer kit now? Can't remember how it came off.

My slam bar was really bent so I got it back in shape. Washer kit now on but the fool before cut the pipe so I need to fix. Just need the mounts that go under the wings above bumpers. Both sides urgently.

Not bad for a days work.
