    Nice, I still have a soft spot for a Cooper S but not sure if it'll feel as good as my current scrabble wagon. Def change the grill for the works item, this is my old poverty spec one before and after.

    I was being a silly bastid.

    He said "Def change the grill"

    I was using a play on words to act the sausage.

    The lower grill is the pain, I don't know if the S bumper is different though. I have a Clio 182 now.

    The normal S bumper is the same as the cooper for the lower grille fitment. So the aero needs trimming

    It's my new exhaust needs a little work but I'm pretty excited. So I set about replacing the hanger.

    And all welded up the biggest snag was my genius magnetic earth strap not working as its stainless

    I used to have one of them. Would get a decent set of coilovers on it, then leave it as it Is. It's not the fastest but it's a hell of a laugh.

    Right so hopefully ill get the exhaust on tomorrow. I've been way too busy so far so decided I'd give the pipes some high temp black.
