If it can be done it is easy - I can fit it for you between 12 and 16th May. It takes about 30 mins.

You need to order Glove box and lock - mine for the LHD GP came from Woodmans and took about 7 days as the lock is special order.

In Italy

That's an incredible amount of work done in such a short time

Sad to see hard work go though - It's going to a good home though don't forget

A dream can only become a reality if you chase it...

Good job! A great result and a testament to what can be done on a budget.

I could have sworn that you mentioned Cooper S bumpers though, to match the skirts?
