lewisjd88 0 Posted July 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 They are located in a plastic bag in my garage at the mo. Only took them off for paint. There's no spoiler, roof channel, boot plinth on there either. Hopefully everything can go back on for good this weekend...... Link to post Share on other sites

dwa1974 0 Posted July 11, 2007 Report Share Posted July 11, 2007 oh right! I'm getting my front end painted soon and was wondering if anyone had 'moved' their washer jets from the top of the bonnet. Looking for ideas where to shove em out the way! Link to post Share on other sites
