New front end!

Postby peterg » Sun Apr 10, 2005 4:56 pm

I am in need of a very cheap bumper, and a Passenger side indicator unit (and a front end spray job and the willpower to make plexi glass light covers :( ) Will consider anything......charity in particular!!!!!!!!!

I ahve got an old indicator unit, if you want it. Its not great, as one of the plastic corners has broken off it, but could be repaired and would be fine for what you need it for. PM me if your interested.

The ones David has are not the same as I'm sending Peter.

I'm sending Peter a pair that came fitted in a car I bought.

David has the protoypes for the all in one glasses that I have in my own car, only his are 5-6mm whereas mine are 3mm.

I own moulds for the all-in-one and for the original copy glasses.

They work out at less than half the price of the glass ones if you are interested.

Well its all back in one piece and a kilo or so lighter due to various pieces of metal I found under the front that served no purpose!!! Wish I'd spent the extra £100 on a Prima racing bumper......it looks similar to standard but has a nice chin spoiler that gives the car so much more aggression than the standard item. The standard replacement also has all the signs of a long life that I will need to pay the spray shop to cover up. If anyone is in this position again......go for the Prima bumper!

Removed 2 rather rusty bars that lead to the front bumper but serve only as crash protection......and a bracket for the horn....maybe not kilos, but about 1/2 a kilo!!!!!
The Prima front bumper is what David has on the car on his website that changes colour......if you check out the pictures of my car its there too. I cant comment on the photos, but in the flesh its a world of difference!
