Avoided a head on collision with an Astra van! Missed by inches, had to swerve up a kerb and nearly took out a wall.
The Astra hit 2 parked cars and made a mess.

Would post a pic but don't know how to!

Well today i collected some of my facelift parts:

Image



Just need rear arches, and rear end caps.
When colour coding the fog surrounds, have you that have done it, melted them off and reattached, or masked and painted?
Also i need the little bumper bits.
As far as the rear bumper goes, is there a little grommet for the towing eye hole? Also do the rear parking sensors have washers/seats that go between them and the bumper itself?
Thanks in advance....

Yes you get a better job by removing the fog surrounds
Factory parking sensors are on spacers so them don't point down.
Yes a round cap for the towing eye.

If you need someone to do the colourcoding :wink: only in bishops Stortford
