Glad you got it running bud.. Must be a relief

I think it will be luck of the drawer.. Depends on manufacturer and storage aswell whether they've been stored well not stacked upon etc. Only experience I have, I needed a new bonnet for my last civic. 75 quid brand new aftermarket part. Was perfect. Couldn't fault it one bit. But I think if you could test fit before committing to paint would be beneficial. Or as you say used originals from a rap yard. They don't tend to rust on the front so should be able to find a good set easily enough

It was a bad earth. At first I didn't suspect that because the fuel pump wasn't running aswell as not tuning over. Turns out that if the ground to the gearbox is bad is plays havoc with all sorts. Before I rang Hamilton Palmer about the alarm thaught I best do some basic trouble shooting.

Blacked out projector headlights really do smarten up the front end.....tis the passive aggressive look.

Brilliant news Jake , a wee bit of snagging and you're ready to go.

This photo.... Get a bit of tyre shine going on too... will really perfect the shots!

Done some research into the reflectors... found out that the reflective bowl that is fitted within the projector lamps themselves is all it needs... so good bye chrome shrouds!! Started the de chromeing process today!!

Good stuff Jake, what was the issue with the starting in the end?

Had her running today. Few minor niggles, but generally sounds well and doesn't seem to smoke at this point. Couple of little leaks teeny leaks to sort.
