The insides of the front arches all finally smoothed out. This took me ages, with finding more holes to fill and sand down again! Iv'e not pictured it but I even smoothed out the underside of the arch where it meets the bumper. I know its not seen but I dont like to leave it half done!

My smooth boot wasnt so smooth! I'd only just noticed, a bit of a sand and minimal filler resulted in 1 actual smooth boot...result.

Engine as it is now. Its not fast but doesnt mean it cant look good! Polished the intake pipe myself, gave it a mega clean ( look at 1st pic in thread to see the state of it) Sprayed black most bits and added green detailing.

How I started out to make the front bumper meet the arches. My old bumper donated these small sections to the cause.

Made a fibreglass bracket to attatch the splitter to the bumper. It was for a cossie but I had to get a bit choppy with the grinder to shape to the mk6 bumper.
