I was offering it round at the softies meet yesterday lmao

There's no room under the bonnet of the starlet for something that big (it's nearly a foot round lol).

I'm tempted to carbon wrap it and fit it on the Sweed...

urrgh they're nasty .....

if it was at the same time as the mirrors, then it would be 2007 model year.
the r ones wont have that little sidelight bar in

[M-R-P]

I'd tolerate those lights as it wouldn't be such a wiring nightmare

Now that the front's pretty much sorted, I'm left with the dilemma of what to do with the rear bumper. It's dented, hanging about 10mm low in places and in need of a respray. I wonder what sort of trim/lip etc I could throw at it...?

Any ideas peeps?

[graemewelch]

Yep - those are the ones I mean - horrible - why these manufacturers think everybody wants fairylights in their bloody headlights is beyond me.

I think the standard lights on the facelift P2 look much better and would suit my car perfectly

couldnt agree more. its the kind of thing id expect to be sold in halfords. angels eyes are another thing i hate.

thats awful. i think it started off as a saxo bodykit and found its way on to a vovlo

[T5RatherAmusin]

you was only messaging me the other day about fitting the same thing on your car~!

thats also a copy of a gen volvo sport kit...

[graemewelch]

not that style. the one i was looking at looks more oe. that bumper looks wrong on the v70. a subtle lip spoiler at most

I could use that as a base and modify it bit I'm not paying that much for something I'm going to attack with a grinder lol. the front end mods cost me a grand total of 24 quid plus 20 quid for the paint.
