They look like a real b**ch to fit.
If they'll be long enough for my boot, i'll buy them
Next time we have a meet or im going to see you remind me to bring them, they cost me nothing so you can have them
Few drill holes and tighten a bolt and some screws, was easy enough
Be a b**ch if you have any arch liners etc.Saw the bumper pins today when I left for work, look pretty smart and sutle!
Cheers mate
Theyre being swapped out for aero catches soon. Hope your enjoying my white wheels

Nice one! Will give you some beer tokens tho Just reading posts, did you actually fit them? As i thought you said you sticky taped them on, but others saying they saw them fitted :S Can bring them to North Wealds as i should be there

Oh i see, thought they'd be fairly similar to aerocatch's, but aerocatch's are just counter sunk and look smarter lol
It might just be the way I fitted them lol.
My bumper hangs as the clip broke near the light, that where yours broke?
Plus aerocatchs will be neater

Oh i see think you'll have to fit your aerocatch's tight to solve that once, i still have mine fixed there. Mine broke where the bumper screws to the wing! The lug on the wing had snapped offIt might just be the way I fitted them lol.

I have an idea of how to do it, fingers crossed it works will involve a bit of trial and error.
I need to stop spending and save for the cams

Decided what ones your going to get? GT cams are getting good reviews.

I actually left my rubber stops a little bit long so the pin was very tight for this reason
GT or 438s
No rubbers, think that's the problem tbh. Could put some hose over it lol.

Nice one! Try that before you go giving me them pins
Ill find some hose and try that ifr I twist the pin slightly it should push the front up too

Also i done my pins up tight, then banged them with a hammer to bend the slightly to get them so once the bumper sat on it lined up properly, sounds bodge i know, but excellent for making minor adjustments.

So the car will hopefully be a fair quicker considering it has 162bhp now!
Also picked up another elbow for the induction from DannyR to replace by one bodged together with a hose adapter and jubilee clips.

Paired with no aircon and matched inlets it should make some healthy gains
Thought you would be glad that the cambelts being done! ill take it easy untill april
well after Snetterton sunday haha.Went to Snetterton today, weather was brilliant and got a fair bit of track time in.
The federals handled amazingly imo, once I got the pressures low enough they got proper sticky
The car was superb and only had two problems all day.
Problem 1- Power steering fluid coming out the top of the bottle.
Problem 2- The bolt that holds the tesnioner on the cup alternator vanished! i didnt realise this until we had left and my belt kept squeeking on start up but i didnt bother looking. So did the afternoon and drive home with out it tensioned properly and fixed it when i got in
Fews pics.

Car looks epic, love it with the black wheels. How are you getting on with bumper pins now? Liking the new lid similar to mine

Mines a cheaper version though! Bumper pins are the same, havent put hose behind them yet! It held alright today though.
Brand new fluid
probably just overfilled it knowing me.Also really need a new throttle cable, it was sticking like mad on the way home grrr.
Was a great day Dan!
Mine boiled it pas fluid in 5 laps, cooked brakes and grooved the front disks!
Suspension is too soft too but overall was a superb day out and cannot wait to do another one mate!
will you let me spec you some improvements now?

will you let me spec you some improvements now?
haha sticking with it for now Dan but will roll on a few more track days and see
Rhys you checked your pas level yet? Mine seems to be on max now so im taking it being too full as my problem.
Car is running fine today and the exhaust is barely rattling had to tension the aux belt again, hopefully nothing will come loose again

As for the actual bolt that was gone which is important I've put a longer bolt in and its done super tight so fingers crossed no more problems
