The van is in the bodyshop as we speak getting sorted after its little incident
Mates of mine at a local garage welded in a new front panel and crossmember. The van now has some good metal to paint too. My local bodyshop got the van with all the bare welds and yesterday seam sealed them and primered the new panels.

It is also having a new pair of wings fitted as old ones were knacked (you should have seen the amount of mud and debris that came out of the old wing near the door shuts eek).

I got my new bumper last night from my mate marc, its a standard GTE bumper with a custom splitter the size of mozambique fitted should look mega on the van :D

The bumper is getting meshed where the number plate would have been and having standard gte mesh in the top piece.

I'm in a quandry with regards to my front plate because an illegal plate is now 3 points (eek) and obviously it can't go where it should i'm unsure of my options.

Pics to follow :D

Sounds good mate. Did you have arch liners fitted? Maybe a square plate on one side like TomGTE has?
