Great progress lad's, looks awesome! I was speaking to Andy from geronemo today, he said if you get time can you e-mail him a few pics of the cage painted.

Yeah kind of just not had time over the last few years what with getting married, buying a house and having a baby have been doing bits to it over the last few months though hopefully be ready next year

Not far from me at all really my cousins live in Romford, i have got two spare bumpers front and rear but will need them for mine when its ready

Have a look over on www.xrtwo.com and www.fiestaclubgb.co.uk

Twice the car it used to be, looks so much better in its new colour, will be very impressive once finished.

Steve got the drivers seat mounted nice and low in position and started on the passenger seat while i cracked on with the bumpers and kit

When we first looked at the car ,we knew it need bumpers back on it to give it a better look ,with that we deicided to add the lower part of the xr2 kit under the bumpers to help beef the car up ,i sourced a kit and bumpers off another forum and steve went on a road trip to collect them ,i also had to cut and shorten the sides to accomodate the arches ,the bumpers and kit will go frozen white ,but had to be test fitted and trimmed to fit the car ,totally changes the look of the car for the better imo
