There is something about having something to play with at the 'bottom end' budget.
Doing lots of little things to the Pinin at the moment to bring it up to my standard.
Bought a full complete front bumper from a breaker. Absolutely mint fully painted not a mark on it, complete with fog lights. £90. Bargain!
Bought a fill in panel that goes between the bumper and lights but needed respraying. Did it with rattle cans, full strip, primer, paint, clear coat, wet sand ect. Can't believe the final finish didn't think I had it in me! (don't tell the Mrs I did it on top of the kitchen table and hung it above the aga between coats when she was away for the weekend!) Replaced the rear lights and one of the headlamps for 'as new ones' again all three for £90.
