Looks very nice  8-) :y did you get it resprayed as it looks spotless for the year?

Hope you dont mind me asking

Also where did you get the rear light brows from as they certainly look different and  8-)

I know this is cheeky to ask but can you tell me the part number of the clear lense brake light on your rear lip spoiler as I want to change the red one I have for a clear one.

Hi nixoro
Im glad you like it :y
 
I dont mind you asking at all mate, ;) yeah i got both sides resprayed in feb this year, there were a few bits of the dreaded tin worm as usual

The rear light brows are apparently a one off found on german ebay thats what the seller said anyway :-?. they fit really well but I hav'nt seen any since! took 6 weeks to get em but they were only 8 quid :)

looks fantastic now Lee, complete facelift apart from the boot end, and the interior obviously, but it looks great!

do you get many people questioning you about why its facelifted for an L reg?

Hi omegabeast

Theres not much to it really, fitting the parts is really easy,but i think getting the parts could be difficult.

I was lucky on finding a complete Y reg MV6 (ex plod) in a breakers yard in Derby ;)

What about the bumpers? Are they a direct fit or did you have to use the bumper support from the original bumper's? Also did you have to make any mods for the towing eye's?

Hi mate

Thanks for your comments  :y the wheels are running on 235/35/r19 cooper zeon 2xs.

When I got them they had 40 psi & the ride was very hard, so ive dropped them to 35 & it is'nt too bad now! the handling's pretty good too :y

I don't want to sound like a smart-arse here, but as soon as I saw the 1st pic I thought "those aren't facelift rear lights".

Nice car though, unusual. :y
