Thannks for comments ALL..

Even though its raining well drizzle im gonna go out and clean her today and take some more pics

Best part is at work when i come from shop with my deliveries when i walk towards where car is parked

If she is facing away from me i see the spoiler and smile and if facing me i see the grill & Civic5 Banner and smile (im easily pleased)

Still no reply from my ebay seller about paint have sent two messages (and they were a recommended seller) ordered on the 1st of this month

guess i am going to have to send them another message giving them 48hrs to reply or i will have to report them to ebay

Will post next pics after some filling and rubbing down

Going to rub down entire bumper fill and prime and get it sprayed professionally, was nor planning on spraying just getting a tidy one but as it has not turned out that

way (ditch option one and straight into option two) so it looks like im going full repair and spray instead :lol::lol::lol::lol:

Going to mesh the rear of the hole i cut out with same mesh as grill to match. Unless i can't find same one then its new mesh in grill as well
