The front will be fairly straight forward, but the rear bumper will need a lot of work to meet the arches.
Started contemplating a fibreglass wide arch kit today  I do like the subtle look of these arches, but they are always going to rust and fook up. lol
Cant afford that at the moment anyway, so will keep it on the drawing board

The bodywork is being given an overhaul next. I plan to move back to STD style bumpers and mirrors. That gives another problem though as the indicator repeaters are currently in the mirrors

Re-route the wiring for the indicators to the front arch and use 3 orange l.e.d's as an indicator. It look very discrete, but awesome when you use them.

I've booked the same trailer guy who took it up to GMC, to bring it home again. This means I'll get my car back on Wednesday morning next week. I better go finish the shed and car port then!
I'm looking forward to getting it back, so I can start ripping it apart again
