I have been told it should have fit also.. i guess it must be something to do with the crushbar you are talking about.. There is no way i\'ll get one of those in such short notice i would imagine.. but to be honest i really like the idea that Craig has came up with.. wont be many around with the same shape mine will be after he is done with it.

Benlewismay has got my crush bar, if u can get hold of him lol. I had to take mine out due to the fmic.

Thanks man, but Ben seems to be the hardest person in the world to get a hold of. I\'m not too fussed about it.. as long as the splitter is on i am happy..

Anyone looking for a TII red bumper? hehe..

also with the turbo bumper, when you line up the 3 bolt each side the bumper sits about a inch lower than the wing and bonnet line, plus the plastic vmount shape ducting at the bottom stops the bumper going back far enuff... as iv said i cant see why it wouldnt fit, i even removed all the crash bars n supports n no joy...

I\'ve no doubt you\'ve though of this already but thought i\'d mention if its a case of bolts not lining up with holes would drilling some new holes fix the problem?

It would be good if you take those weather strips of the doors (window seal).  Its only one little screw each door and they just pop off.  Once you start the screwed end the rest just follows and you should not break anything. I also painted mine satin black as they do either corode or look shabby.

Right, Craig has now taken the grills clean off the bumper and added some support to strengthen it up. He has suggested i add some mesh which i think is an awesome idea! So that is that bit sorted..

Next comes the bit i dredded most.. the sunroof.. Well, its been taken off and is in quite bad condition.. I will need a new seal for a start.. I\'ll let Craig explain the rest of his plans for it though..

I say it everytime i post some more pictures, but i honestly mean it from the bottom of my heart dude.. Thank you so much for all your work! You have no idea how much i appreciate this..

Here are some pics for you guys. Enjoy!

Yeeep!, that roof looks like it\'ll be no end of fun and games, even for the mad skills of Mr Loper! Looking good so far, though.

As a side note, what a manly garage is that! Looks like it was hewn straight out of good hard Scottish rock with pickaxes lol :rollin

Thanks guys. Although there have been no new photos, Craig is still hard at work with it. The sunroof has taken up more time than originally thought... Hopefully there will be some new pictures up at some point next week. Failing that i will take loads when i get her home! :)
