While you are at Oulton this weekend, keep an eye out for an Orange Leon in the Dunlop thingy. The guy driving is the guy who remapped my Leon and the guy running the team is Ed from EJM Preparation who did some stuff on my car.

I realised that but as the last to use it, you have ownership now. Plus I had no room left at all.

Heres a pic of my grille. It's mounted to the crash box not the clam. Makes fitting the clam a lot easier.

Here's a couple of pics of the doors going back on for first fit. I'm sure there will be a bit of tweaking to get them perfect once the clams are on

Must be 10+ on the extreme scale, got to have the odd the cut/scatch after doing this one! :D

Temp fix of the old rubbers (I Plan on getting Elise ones so not sticking these on.)

That looks lovely Matt, a credit to all the hard work. I promise I won't let on that it is a new car and not Slidy's skip.
