Got a standard pair of headlights in my shed. Probably needs a bit of a polish though

Would Love them Charlie. How much you want for them?

Seats look proper good! I'm still hunting for some new ones

Seats look awesome, so the rears just bolt in or are they a pain?

I've also got standard headlights if you want them. They've got lamin-x on and de tango'd as well

beautiful car and the new interior is great!!!

Carnt believe this beauty has gone :( whats the replacement?

So I've started another fabia estate project

Oh? Detailsssss

I've done a fair bjt so far but what I've been doing recently is making my own smoothed vrs front bumper. These cost a lot of money to have a body shop to make, so did it myself.

There's a lot involved, cutting, plastic welding, fibreglassing, filling and painting.

It's taken me in total probably 12 hours. And it's pretty much ready for paint now.

Here are some pics

The bumper was a damaged one from eBay that I got a long time ago, and it was in a bad way, so first thing I had to do was fix it!

I plastic welded it

Then cut out the plate plinth

Instead of using some new plastic to weld in place, I just used the black plinth itself and welded it to the bumper from behind.

Then I had to weld the mount for the lower grill on.

I then fibreglassed all the back for strength and to stiffen the area.

And the front

And then after a long time shaping and getting the lines right, it's pretty much ready for paint

Nice to see you working on another one dude. Bumper's looking good

What would be ace if the centre grille could be enlarged so it's the same size as the fog light surrounds

Thanks mate. Need to pay you a visit for some lights haha.

It could have been Done. Could have cut it bigger to right size and used mesh/honeycombs or even gone all out and made the grill the same style but bigger by using an old bonnet grille to make the slats larger maybe I'll do another hahahaha

That sounds like a pretty good idea

So I had to remove a ghastly sticker from the tailgate. Yuck

Tinted the rear lights

Love it

Starting from scratch....all over again..... after all that work!

I'm at the start of my project ,I have some wheels and a bumper.

Indeed. Literally everything was done on that car :(

I have no experience with plastic welding, would not know where to start grafting a rear vrs bumper onto an existing estate one. What are my options y'all!

Pay a bodyshop to do it, you'll be looking at around £350-£500 for it to be done.

Any update mate?
