Looked better with the rally bumper, but I know the hassle you have had with that.
As for pinging, is it still intact then!

Just a quick update...
Was fed-up of the chunky PS2 under the passenger seat, so got me a slimline, modified the glovebox a bit, retrimmed some cardboard, et voila:
Leather isn't a perfect match, but is pretty damn close, and for free I can't complain. Still need to drill the holes for the leads and velcro the PS2 into place, but you get the idea.
Also got some white heater surroundage from a dude on eBay to replace the peeling standard effort, w00t:

Not quite back on the road - still need a new timing belt cover and oil pressure sensor, plus needs to be retaxed, so just going to wait until the 28th before I retax it so it doesn't start from February.
As for plans, let's just say seventeen cows died to produce the leather I've recently bought...
Also need to get my plate back on the car...
