Indication of progress.....

Hi,
Well I'm please to say that with a little creative welding (namely filling of the excessive number of holes found under where my indicators used to be positioned), reshaping of some homemade brackets which were subsequently then also welded into place, followed by a home paint job (can't afford a full respray at present) and I think the front end looks much neater.
Unfortunately the nearest paint matching service couldn't come up with a match, so I got some Almond Green from Bull Motif, which is close enough for now.....
Once it's had chance to harden I'll give it a 'T' cut but I'm much happier now that my brackets look part of the bumper and I'm glad to have found a solution that didn't involve cutting into those hard to replace series 2 front wings.
All I need to do now is edit out that awful 'pink' dog picture stuck on my neighbours spare wheel..............
Best wishes,
Mike.
