I was thinking that because the engine bay looks like flame red AJ4 but the rest of the car looks like the red of a toffee apple.

How easy is it to modify that part? What do you need? I'm thinking of doing my bumper by removing the fog lamp holes and making the radiator air intake area bigger, I've got mesh but not entirely sure what else I need, Fiberglass, Resin, Filler?

You've done a good job anyway.
 
hi pjg1979. i used a hacksaw but if you have a dremmel it would be easier i cut it all out and glued a bit of 3mm plastic on the inside so the p38 has something to stick to. i just smoothed it off and filled it. sanded it once it was dry and sprayed it black to protect it whilst i wait for my paint :)...and thanks 1st time ive used the stuff :)

and i debadged the car and found two small holes :( so i sanded it down and p38ed it :D
 
looking good a lot of work gone on there exhuast looks a good fit aswell

wil have to get some picture off the car with grill n wheels on should be looking good now :D
