Excellent progress. Good to see it coming back to a good standard.
What about the number plates? I always think that style is a bit chavvy too, but maybe you like them?
Will be much better when you get that boot lid swapped over too!

Those front grilles pop out real easy and you'll find Autoglym trim gel will get the black bars back to their original colour easily.
Toothbrush is handy to get right into the corners.

And a trick I discovered for the lower front grille is to spray it with Autoglym tyre dressing.

Car is looking better and the bonus is the M badge has gone too!

Err, not quite following the iMessage thing, but you do know it has a phone number clearly showing on it?

Yep, message has me stumped too.

Congratulations mate. Such an improvement.
You either have the ultimate short stubby aerial, or someone has nicked your highly desirable whippy one.

Looking closer, is it sheared off in the mount?
If you need a new mount I have one here which I'll happily post out to you as a 'well done'.
