MrSloanes Posted March 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 Sooo, as the day I am calling "tango'd day" is closing in, a little present arrived today.Only 1 problem, I have no idea how to fit it. Thought it would have attached to the tow hook but I can't see how to do that but I have noticed a bolt hole next to the tow hook so maybe it wil be bolted into that? Time will tell! Wheels are getting primer on tomorrow once jack brings his spare alloys for Lucy to wear while her shoes get oranged up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrSloanes Posted March 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 Well still waiting on laminex to be delivered for the indicator and side repeaters. Don't fancy spraying badge orange or anything because not a big fan of that. Not sure what other details to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesTdi Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 Spent bare time/effort rubbing and polishing and now you spray them? Looked so much better polished, get to a re-furbers and have the lips/face diamond cut so you have shiny face and orange inners Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
