Start of the sticker bomb

The passengers side wing was (badly) hand painted by the last owner and there was paint on the indicator and side repeater; indicator was changed anyway so I whip the side repeater off (easy peasy, I'll make a video 👍 ) and give it a quick spray and sanded it whilst wet, sprayed it off, dried it and put the bulb back in and then slotted it back in the wing

Now I can't afford to be getting paint jobs and I can't find a new wing close enough to go pick up so..... STICKER BOMB!!!! 😁

I had previously gone and bought all the Sticker Bomb books about a month ago (Amazon second hand (I know what you're thinking but only one came with a single sticker missing 😉) they're all £40+ brand new)

I've resisted the urge to bomb everything I see and I'm also staying calm and collected and deciding where I will and won't Bomb on the car..... But firstly that hand painted wing got fucked up 😛

Next will be under the bonnet, and the dashboard 👍 .....at least 😬

Front splitter and rear bumper

Front splitter was completely removed and put back on (kind of) properly with some cable ties; which will now result in my next purchase of this sticker 

It looks a hell of a lot better than it did as you can see

Before: (not the best angle)

After:

Now I haven't said anything about the back bumper, because it was in better condition than the rest of the car..... I say WAS because until yesterday it genuinely was 😕

I went out for my first drive of the car with one of mates, after getting insured on my provisional 

Arriving back I drove forwards onto the drive and after he had left I thought I best turn it round as my fiancée or my sisters husband to be may need to use the driveway. So everything was going fine until I couldn't see the wall in my mirror and then BANG!!! I mounted the wall 😣

Before:

After:

Oh shit! 😞

There is a few dents here and there anyway so I'll go get myself a few of these to cover them 😛

Steelies

Wire brushed them all over and give them a jet wash; who'd have known that the black hub cap was actually a silver one that the last owner painted haha 

I'll give it a week or two but I'm going to sand them down properly and spray them white 😊

It's the little things that make the difference

Got out the old heat gun and took the door strips off..... I just couldn't be arsed getting the sticky stuff left behind off today 😛

Indicators are on

Looks better already 😛

If I get a chance I'll make a video/step by step one day

It's was so simple; bonnet up, remove 1 screw, slide out, twist the back where the bulb is, pick the new one up and do it in reverse 👍

MOT

Got myself insured Saturday night so I can drive around with Amy or whoever else is nice enough to come out with me :P

Downside is the MOt is due tomorrow (Mon 7th) so need to get that sorted asap; I'll be ringing round first thing 

I'm still excited from Thirsday when I went to collect it and just want to drive it :D

Got my re-test in a fortnight, fingers crossed I pass this time and don't take a wrong turn haha

Front bumper

Can't find a new front

Bumper at any scrappers or eBay :/ 

Only ones I can find are in worse condition than mine or the wrong colour and I'd like to keep my costs down as much as possible so no chance

Of having one sprayed anytime soon

Going to take mine off and take a closer look and decide what to do with it; if the splitter will go back on and I can get a few stickers on it I'll be happy for the time being :)
