Default Omg!

Had spotted a set of mud flaps at my local scrappy, but noticed something else I liked. Anyway, "£10 for the lot" he said. "Ok, thanks" and here they are, taken from an 'X' reg with maroon cloth interior (forget the name of it) He has 3 or 4 75's on there, diesels and a V6. One has powerfolds, well at least it has the button on the switch

Bargain, the scrappies close to me no longer let you wonder around, they ask what you want and if they have it they go get it for you, I asked if I can have a look around after I spotted a ZT in there from the road and the answer was - sorry, health and safety won't allow it any more. A load of twaddle I know but I notice they sell most of their stuff on flea bay now.

That full chrome grill looks in good condition too!
Mangoman has been after one for ages if you want to sell it for a massive profit.

Of course Chad, it's chrome isn't it?
I still like your mesh grill to be honest, I am planning on making one up so I can keep the chrome one for special occasions.

Well done, a nice find, getting rare and desirable now too.
