Thanks mate.
The only panels which are going to require paint, are the panels which need body work.
The front bumper needs the plate mounts smoothed out and painted.
The boot (trunk) needs painting after the fogs get welded up and smoothed out.
And the sills need painting due to road rash and catching a curb.
More than happy with the results so far!

good to hear. I need to figure out how to re-wire my inner trunk tail lights to be used as rear fog lights without having the ugly lamp below the rear bumper. Damn the fog in this country haha

Quick update,
I finally managed to fit my TTE lip yesterday, and must say, the fit at first was awful! After some serious hours spent with a heat gun, some self taping screws and some Body Line bonding sealant, it's on!
Here's before:
And here's after:
I'm relatively happy with the result, before it gets painted ill seal any gaps between the splitter and the bumper using the same sealant as it is paint-able.
I also added some OEM fog lights with a bulb upgrade, as they were missing when i got the car, the previous owner had replaced them with some DRL's for some reason!
I also added some exhaust tips for the time being as the standard ones had seen better days. These are temporary before i have a custom exhaust made.
