Central locking? Oh man
It is a very nice day driver! Congratulations!
Btw. I have similar problem, leaking by the drivers foot .. still dont know where it comes from, because it is not a regular thing.

Its funny how every project thread here on aeu starts with:
"So i've started removing..."
kinda funny from the other peoples perspective, to go buy a car and start removing stuf right away.
Othatr than that, adam great decision to buy that hachi; keep us posted, and surely obey mux and post some pics right away.
have fun!
lp,saš

Good work...have a look in the recent interior cleaning thread for some tips on cleaning that blue interior of yours... As far as the bumper is concerned...what happened
Snap us some pics so we can see what the damage is...

Looks like it broke on the mounting points or something. Take the bumper off and see what the damage is, with luck its just torn and you can glue it back together but if the mounting points are broken off and you are missing parts, you may need to either do some fabricating or get another bumper...
But with some creativity it should be easy to fix, the bumper from the outside looks in tact which is very hopefull:)

well, the point is that the mounts are all in place, and i can't even move the bumper in any direction...when i hit the towing hook, all the shit that the bumper was attatched to moved downwards.. so i will needa remove the bumper and then we'll see what's there! but i thik that i'llbe able to fix it tomorrow or some of my free days after the w/e!

Hey Adam,
Damn that sucks mate. Is it just bent at the front or on other places aswell? If only the front it should be easily fixed I hope..

Will probably need to be pulled back a little...nothing a collision damage repair shop couldnt fix... While your at it you can ask them to drill out those broken bolts.
