After purchasing all the parts I set up a temporary spray booth, spray undercoated the bonnet, base coated it with Grey White R209 then Clear Coated, relying heavily on propane heaters to keep everything warm. Stripped complete front off but before putting new bumper I found the radiator bottom mounts were missing so replaced with some new ones from TPS around £3 each. Bolted lights into position making new brackets for the bottoms using galvanized straps and some M10 bolts, wired up lights by removing all terminals re positioning to suit T5.1 configuration. Fitted bumper, Grille and Bonnet and at the same time fitted an EU certificated A bar from Bragan £200.
