Thanks for the welcome!

Yes 10 mins to write off was a shock - couldn't believe the other driver didn't brake - I saw it all happen in kind of slow motion!

wurlycorner - yes I'll be looking into some OEM mats as and when they come available (like you say prob never!)

Jamie p 2013 - I was on about the other dodgy badges on the car (see pic of the wonky on one the bootlid and the red faded one on the bonnet).. I may not know much, but I do know the motegi badges are in demand!

G-lude - yes I need to source a decent condition OEM back box (ideally with the chrome tips) and then I'll probably be looking to sell the longlife back box - looks to be in good condition - I just want to go back to OEM. Anyone know of someone on the forum selling a back box around the Manchester / Northwest area perhaps (I'll have a look on the sales thread too) ?

Grab me some pics if you do decide to sell

I have my MOT this month so if your not fussed with a quick sale i'd want to wait until i'm out of the woods!

Yes no problems. As soon as I've changed to OEM, then I'll offer the lifelong one for sale with some pics.. and no particular rush

Hi

Thanks for the addtional welcomes..

mercutio - good to know you're from Manc too... are there many Manc / North West based members?

andyjess - I'm in Chorlton (South Manc).. if you're in Manchester soon then pm me please and hopefully we can sort something out for the mats - thanks!

I've been through the for sale section but not found an OEM back box (with the chrome tips)... if anyone has one for sale or knows someone who does then please let me know

Sorry forgot to ask

mercutio / any Manc / North West based members - where do you go to get your cars serviced? Or are you all experts and just do it yourselves?!
