GOODBYE BOMEX FRONT BUMPER

 

HELLO TT FRONT BUMPER

 

today I got stuck into the front bumper to get the car ready for MOT, yes I am aware there is a gap issue on the edges, but was just glad to get it on. I will be taking it back off when it's due to get painted don't know when though, strengthening plates on the side may have not been good and straight..

 

I will when I can rearrange my pics and create a build from when I got the car to me ripping off the side skirts and bumpers.

Looking forward to your rebuild thread Trev .:thumbup1:

just gonna keep it as standard as I can with a few subtle touches Gary..

 

frigging bolts and studs were snapping off the wing and where the bracket for the bumper goes under nose cone, so it was out with the drill,

thanks Gary, yeah car is standard engine no mods. so it's getting timing kit 120k, standard clutch full service, single prop that I forgot I had asked about, and sort my power steering out also, and few odd jobs..

 

Well the master of the good safe hands has messaged me with this last night, my wee car has had a fair ding underneath, he is doing his best to work something out for me, just need to wait and see what comes about. gutted, annoyed and angry all rolled into one..
