    the top of its mk3 gis and the bottom bit is bits of my old gte bumper cut up and fibreglassed, filled etc, took me 2 weeks.

    antone done a mk3 that can tell me how they bolted it on?
    mines not to good, i made new holes in the plastic behind it and put bolts through them but thier startin to sag, is it possible to seperate the skin so i can bonit onto a gte bumper( so the gte bumper sits behind, unseen so i can use original mounting points.

    i cant think of any other way excpet startin again as i hacked away alot of the back including the original mounting point

    Note: the above may or may not be entirely correct.
    I wondered why the frisbee was getting bigger, and then it struck me.

    I like the colour a lot!! By the way did you remove the spare wheel well to get the quad exhaust on?

    benn could u actually drive anywhere? my brother reckons it will b fine on speed bumps and will just scrap the bottom the bumper, unnoticable??? not sure myself! the well wasnt taken out for the zorsts just got beaten a bit wit a mallet, he reckoned it wld make the floor to weak weldin it over, in a way it turned out btr because there connected 80% one side and 20% of drivers side which worked out because i dint want that one getting hot because of fuel pipes etc. still damn loud for 1 of the twins workin properly and a 1.3 engine! cant wait til i get the 1.8!

    what do peeps think on the wheels though? im runnin 17"s -60mm front and -40mm back but this bumper just makes them look tiny! il either have to higher to - 40 again then wen i can afford it get 18"s. whoops bit of an essay, sorry lads!

    1.8 ??????? Naw, you don't want to do that !!! Go for a 2.0XE or LET Car that looks good, needs to go good too especially considering the weight of a bodykit and large wheels !!
