Nice

I also see that you managed to fit the MK5 Bonnet, lights and smile

Was it straight forward :?:

And I didn't realise that power steering boxes were that rare :!:

yes mate but nothing to hard

The only reason I'm asking is that others on here have made it into a song and dance :roll:

But it looks like you did it and kept the original front wings

BRILLIANT

(mines a MK5 anyway)
