Ok after the last guy bodged on the combat front bumper it was due to fall off soon, god knows how it stayed up for that long, anyways it basically fell off. one screw each side was all it took to get it off haha

Image

So this is what it looks like now. It will be sprayed when i have some spare cash. Looking to smooth it but heard alot of bad things about cracking, any advice will great be appreciated

OLD

Yeah i wanted the xbox hidden out of site. I quickly did that build to see how it would work out. Im gonna redo it properly when i can. In my old corsa i had the original xbox on the shelf underneath but it wasnt hidden unless i left the glovebox open lol

Yeah the old front bumper was wey OTT so i cant wait to get the new one smoothed and sprayed black :D

Gotta get MOT and Tax next week so im gonna be skint for a while unless i borrow some cash of the GF haha
