Putting my car back together



  1.2 16v Dyn. MK2. PH.2
Right heres the deal, i crashed a bit and have ordered all the new bits and bobs. Going to put them on this weekend. But i was wondering what order you would put them on in?

-Grill
-D/S wing
-D/S headlight
-Bonnet

Also is the grill designed to sort of hold the front bumper onto the car in the middle? The grill was destroyed and thus i dont know if the bonnet was always sort of hanging down in the middle...

thanks for your help

I take it the old bits are still attached to the car in some way? Just a bit scuffed... or completely fecked? Anyways..

To get the wing and headlight off you have remove the front bumper, so id start with that. With the bumper off, attach the grille to it. With the bumper off, you can get to the screws holding the headlight on. then you can take the wing off without too much trouble as well.
Then put the new wing on, then headlight. Then re-attach the bumper and then have a go at the bonnet last.
Simple...

Thanks for your reply! I cant wait to get it sorted, been a month off the road now :(
Going to have the scuffed bumper colour coded too. I cant really find any help for removing the front bumper... Searched and come up with a few bits and pieces but nothing too great. Is it pretty self explanatory once i know what bolts and screws to remove? all the other smashed up bits are now off, just got the front bumper still to get off.
