Default Just want to say Thanks for all the Info

I own a 2004 BA XR6 mark 11 - colour vibe - & am happy to say I haven't had 1 days trouble since I bought her. I originally joined this forum as I just wanted to change all my interior lights to the coloured ones I had seen on eBay but didn't know how to get some of the covers off, well, since I found all the info I needed my beautiful girl now has all purple interior lights including the ignition barrel light & the parkers as well. The front bumper had some slight damage to the bottom of it when I bought the car & I had thought I would get someone to do it for me till I was given quotes - stupidly I thought it would cost a few hundred not thousands lol - so back to eBay & after 2 yrs I found & won a original bumper that had been resprayed 18 mths ago in vibe for $175.00 & was only 20 kms away, with all the how to info on here I was able to take off the old & put on the new by myself saving me heaps & making my purple girl look beautiful again. So thank you to everyone who posts on here for your wonderful, much needed & easy to understand advice, I am very grateful to you all, & just a lil side note I'm a 52 yr old woman & this is the first time I've ever done any work on a car, it took me a lil longer to do than was posted it would - but, I'm feeling very proud of myself

Well done. there's always something new to learn and it feels great when you have fixed something yourself
