i know i started a thread about who likes them etc etc but how the hell have they got these so quickly (15december) and are they gonna be cheap knock off ones, not from k tec...
can someone give me the dimensions of the lower grill on a 172/182?
i wanna see if i can do a diy fitment to the lower grill on my dynamique.
cheers jamie
think the front is ott for my taste but i think i like the back, but looks a bit plain, needs a SMALL spoiler to cut things up a bit at the back.
jamie
true rich but it wont fit very well and dont want it looking too much like a sport model, jus little bits of it like the skirts, think sport front would be ott, plus its costs so much to spray :(

right, due to the bump i had a while back i have a brand spanking new front bumper, fully colour coded etc etc etc. . . . and i think it looks good . . . . .
however, just b4 the crash i bought a new bumper, purely for looks purposes, because i think i like the extreme bumper with the...
fella down the road just purchased a turbo, black with black wheels, and hes got it so highly/illegally tinted that it basically disappears in the dark. ridculous cars and an amazing sound to wake up to when he drives off to work in the morning at half 8!!
i have the same prob, jus had to wait for a bit, with mine its like the battery hasnt got enough juice to turn off the cars immobiliser, i open my bonnet and leave it for 5 mins or so and it eventually starts. interesting about the key thing though, will have a try, thanks guys.

thanks for all the replies guys, looking really good, really like them. Immi you know i love that car, still not sure on the green though!
my only prob is that mine is a light blue so i cant swap parts over from a sport model directly, they all need painting first which is a bummer. defo...
as above, just wanna see how they all look, and to what degree people have gone to, ie just rear bumper and aftermarket side skirts or all the way with the full kit.
also, could you put all in all prices incl everything from spraying, to parts, to fitting.
thanks
jamie
yeah the rear is a b1tch to get off. ^^^true as well about being easier to respray, you already have a nice smooth surface to start with. . . . . one hopes :D
jamie
just found these on ebay, only useful if the car is silver though :D

with the front bumper inserts they have quite a few clips, but they are quite difficult to get off and take time, damage to the paint work of your bumper is possible if you rush, thats why the shop wont take them off for you.
best thing is to get a screw driver and put some cloth over it and...
christ jesus, thats a motor and a half, liking the use of the tunnels as well, although be careful, coppers are starting to hang around the turn off to ashley road just after them now.
where abouts you from? alderley edge myself, would like to see the beast in action.
jamie
yeah defo need to take it off, think its the same as a 1.2 16v, in which case you need to undo the pop screws of the top grill so it can move off the bash bar, then undo the bolts underneath the cars front that are obvious, then there are two more that are in the wheel arches that you need to...
seen before but well worth a watch. . . . . . . however, if its such a careful clean why is he using a standard sponge. . . . . . . enter the cleaning genius that is Rich!! bet he could wipe the floor with this guy compared to his finish on his black mirror clio!!
jamie
i know its no where near as bad but similar damage, including airbox and fuses as the light got pushed up into them (hard to see from photo, got it back in two weeks, only the 300 quid excess to pay until the other guy realises he cant not admit liability. . . . .
good luck with it mate...
