New rear bumper £50 of ebay
And my dash wasn't all that, heater didn't work, cigeret lighter didn't work and a nice crack in it. Clock did
so with an old bit of checker plate I did this

Its all over the place I will get to grip with this iphone
Not all the switches work I just got a job lot cheap so used them all
and the stereo is missing because some little scrot broke in and destroyed it
Im going to cut a hole for the cb to go in and move the fuse box on there so its easier to change them and people wont keep kicking it
