Hit a dip in the road (not even a pot hole) and broke my front splitter. Car isn't even lowered!!

They're out of stock at the moment too as I've already phoned about a new one. It's not going to be cheap either :worried:

Bought a broken (£15!) XC90 climate control panel to swap the adjust dials out of and into my V70 ... it’s the little things! :grinning:
Not too much of a strip down for the caps but poached some other bits such as the bulbs as they’re £7 a piece from volvo!

Front subframe dropped on my R52 JCW Mini

Replacing all bushings and ball joints, had an oil leak from the oil filter housing so replacing that gasket.

Any thoughts, subframe is in fairly good condition, just needs a good clean.
Would you shot blast and powder coat or wire wheel and paint?

@Robin_Hood if you do down the route of shot and powder drop me a message. I can get this done in work for you no problem. Only issue with that is you will have to rebush everything.

Im in Lurgan/Portadown.

If its an option I could get it shot for you. I don't know how the bushes would hold up through the wheelerbrader tho.

I had a rear subframe of an e36 shot and then sprayed with the paint we have in work and it really spot on. 2pac I think it's called.

Annual service time. These two jalopies are going to be called upon shortly, so gave them an oil & filter change first. The A4 has done 700 miles since it's major service at the end of 2019 and the XJ6 just over 500 since last year 😂
