    Re: My new 5!

    i reckon the decals and o.e header tank could be on the list though i agree on the outside there is no danger of a chav tec kit etc going on it

    Iv got one of those, fitted it the other day, had to drill out the holes as they didnt line up very well, also couldn't clamp it down as welds where right next to holes so nut didnt sit flat, got the grinder out and sorted that out though.

    I bet yours fits straight on and its just my luck lol

    Shame someone has gone to the trouble of making that for it to not fit correctly welds not the greatest looking things (been nice about it ) but if it was cheap cheap and still does the job with a little effort the world is all good again

    Nice little red car
