i took the big bumper kit off as it wasn't year appropriate and the big bore exhaust
i will return it to standard as much as i can within my budget
it had a modern grill from the late cabby so binned that and got a proper gti single grill

Looks good progress  :thumbs:

Wheels should look ok if the car was lower - fill the arches better
