They should be a straight bolt on job, the only thing I may have to do is a bit of grinding as they will be a tight fit under the fat fives, but I won't know until I go to fit them. :D

The jazz jets spray in a sort of mist as already said, they are far better as they cover most of the window evenly, they not expensive you should try them, you won't be dissapointed. :wink:



That guy went and jumped because I told him he couldn't drive my car home. :lol: :lol:

Thanks very much :D A lot of time and hard work has gone into it and my wallet is still whimpering :lol: Problem is I can't seem to finish, there is always something else I can do to improve it in some way or another.

Thanks, I think with shipping and everything included you are looking at about £75, The build quality is great and the fitment and operation is perfect :D

Well, what can I say, yesterday the car was almost perfect and today I crash it. :evil: :oops:

A people carrier suddenly braked in front of me due to a speeding police car coming the other way in their lane, I to applied the brake but the road was that greasy it was like ice, went into the back of them. Life sucks

The damage isn't bad, the chassis is completly scratch free, I just need a new bumper, bonnet, indicator and slam pannel, oh and radiator as the t-bar hit it. Only superfical damage but still expensive to fix, at least the car drives 100% and no chassis damage, the car was at the bodyshop within 2 hours of the accident, lol.

It looks worse than it is, the main damage being the bumper and bonnet, everything else isn't really touched. Bassicly with my car being so low it went under theirs and my bonnet got the hit and then pulled the cross bar up with it.
Image

You can see from this photo what has happened, in that its hit the bonnet and the bonnet has pulled the bar up with it and apart from that everything else is fine.

I would be so greatfull if anyone has any of the parts I need such as front bumper (bumper may be ok as after I bent it back it was hardly scratched) and bonnet, indicator and cross panel.

The worst thing is I already had no money as I had just ordered some stage 2 cams, I guess they'll nor be getting fitted as soon as originally planned.
