yes mate you have to cut out the standard phase 1 lower grille and and modd the phase 2 lower grille to fit.


fabian yes its the same colour. it took me a long time to find the actual name of the colour but funny enough theres a fiesta in the latest max power mag that has the same colour lol.

Re: cleaned/euro mk2 phase 1 (172 kit plus smoothing)

i duno i kind of like it being a 1.2 as its cheap as fook to run but on the otherhand its slow. i probarly wont to be fair as ill just get a track toy on the side and use this as a daily. im going to be stripping the interior over the weekend ready for the respray but while its all out im going to be retrimming some of the plastics in alacantra to match the seats and doorcards. also im swapping the dash for a phase 2 172 to modenise it up. hopefully im picking it up this weekend :D

Re: cleaned/euro mk2 phase 1 (172 kit plus smoothing)

ive just spoke to work today about getting it in for monday but ive had to speak to the managing director as work was going to loan me the money and i pay it back each month directly out of my wages. but after they all had a mass debate and said due to the current economic climate they carnt loan me it all up front. but what they said is there prepared to loan me about £300 each month.
so on monday im taking in my front bumper and rear bumper so they can start with that. when i get paid on the 28th ill be able to get the wings, spoiler and bonnet done, and soo on. so hopefully i can save up alot and get it all done for january/febuary. im alitte wounded but i suppose im still getting a good deal so i think its worth the wait.
