    Anyway, what's done is done, and this thread was more a generalised moan than a request for help. :p

    Thanks guys. If I could get welding and undersealing done for £110 I'd be delighted! I'll take the carpets out and do a bit of an inspection later. And that's good to hear about the joint, ta, beau.

    Mark 1 Sporting front bumper

    Preferably black, urgently wanted, please.

    I've sourced an O/S front wing, inner wing, and headlight, so the bumper is the main further item I need to patch my car together.
