[URL=http://s187.photobucket.com/user/s ... jpeg[/img][/url][/[URL=http://s187.photobucket.com/user ... jpeg[/img]. Had a few hours yesterday so removed the wiper arm and motor
Removed the rear bumper and drilled out the holes for reverse sensors
Filled the dents that were inherited
And finally put the plate I've treated myself too

Given the dash some Tlc this afternoon golf switches and surrounds upgraded light switch so I can put some led lights too front
And vent rings
Bit of bling brightens a dull dash I think :P
