Been offline for a while due to computer problems!
However during this time I have fitted my welton panel and it looks fantastic!
I have opted for sticking it to my bumper rather than drilling the holes for the bosses!
I used a hacksaw to cut off the bosses and added some super strength double sided adhesive to stick it to the bumper.
It has been on for a couple of weeks now and hasn't started to lift yet and looks great!
Will upload phooto's later when I can be arsed to get dressed and go outside. lol

It was all my idea, but I have not got one yet
I kinda 'fell out' with the car so it wasn't getting a Welton Panel until it behaved itself. But just recently, maybe, just maybe I'll treat it to one.
How much are you guys paying for it, from the dealer???

As Promised here are the photo's. Now the ends have started to lift ever so slightly, but this is only noticeable when you get real close. This is becuase I opted for sticking it rather than drilling my bumper.

Yes she is absolutely filthy! Oh and forgot to mention I also fitted my new K&N filter as a replacement for the OEM one. I'll let you know what improvement it gives after I driven her tomorrow...
