The more I look at it, the better it gets. The only thing I really dislike is the sunstrip, but that's personal preference! If you like it then tell me to poke off :)
lol
Get some Vid's up too!
I believe so. The ones i bought were definitely meant for a Vitara, and as far as i know Vitara's are all the same!
Plus if they don't fit, you can always send them back since it's an ebay shop.
Tell me about it! If i screw this up, it's new bumper time!
I'll bear that in mind ;)
I like silver too!
I just want to be a little more adventurous.
Decided to get fork out and get them refurbed properly too - no point in it all flaking off after a month of driving...
You're thinking of the Campus bumper, that's technically PH4 :)
Very easy to fit, just a case of swapping the top hub bolts on either side for camber ones.
You adjust camber by twisting them in the hub - they're shaped like a cam.
There's an amount of adjustment in the coilovers...
Yeah actually, needed some camber bolts, and you might need spacers depending on how much camber you want - but that's a good thing!
I got some that were meant for a Suzuki Vitara i think!
similar to these i believe...
Mine have been great! A little bouncy, but hey, you can't go wrong for that price. They've not broken, and that's the main thing
Just bought some -90mm rear springs, so we'll see how that works out! Won't be able to get into college anymore. Haha :D
Oh really?
That could be a reasonable explanation. Althought my friend, who owned a decatted Saxo at the time, got pulled by them and they said nothing about it. So god knows!
Still, this thread has made me think twice about putting it back on after MOT tbh...
There have been a good few VOSA vans parked up accompanied by the police flagging down random cars for checks.
I've been lucky not to have gotten stopped tbh since my car isn't exactly normal looking...
Haha, I'm trying different things ;)
Nahh, I just don't want it dropping off and getting run over - better to be safe!
Welding will probably start this weekend.. Pooping myself tbh :S
Small Update
Got round to sanding bits down ready for spraying/welding this aft. Only took about an hour to do everything thanks to a power sander! :D
Unfortunately, this means my old practice bumper is back on the car...
Looks very sorry for itself :dapprove:
And btw, that IS holding...
If you just had the inner bits bashed out of a normal cat (diy decat) and you get pulled by Vosa/emissions peoples, could you just claim that your cat had deteriorated without your knowing? Or would they call bullshit?
LOL!
That's my thinking.
You're doing a no-expense-spared project, and I'd love to do something like that with an 86.
Just build your perfect car... Nobody else will think it's rational, but that's not what matters tbh.
I guess to anyone who doesn't know about/has no interest in cars, it's just a 10 year old honda with white wheels and a spoiler.
Possibly worse when you're paying more than that for a 25 year old toyota... LOL.
I just think you buy a car for yourself, not for everyone else who thinks you're...
They don't need to know it cost that much... And when I'm in a position to buy one, I'll probably only be 21ish - wouldn't look too out of place.
I could also make argument that it's a classic. My dad owned a Lotus Sunbeam once; it's just like buying one of those over a more modern, sensible...
