CRAIG-SR Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 Any updates on the bumper mate? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rob_bower Posted July 10, 2009 Author Share Posted July 10, 2009 Hey Guys its been a while since i updated. The bumper and manifold are still well on going.The bumper is just about ready to go away to be painted just a little final fettling to be done. which i should get done in the next week or 2. The exhaust is also nearly finished i need to find a standard n/a down pipe to butcher to get the down pipe to match up the the exsisting exhaustHowever i did finally get round to fitting my Whiteline adj rear ARB last week that made a major improvement on the rear!! I just need some new shocks now!!I have had a few things go wron recently though firstly someone has drivern in the the n/s/r corner scratching paint off and drivern off which was a bit annoying to say the least. And then last sunday i was involved in a collision with a motorbike while i was waiting to pull out of a junction. No damage to the starlet but the bike is fooked!!Ill try and get some piccies up when i have made some more progress!!Rob Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Galliano Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 I read about the biker on your facebook mate, Bikers piss me RIGHT off. Back onto the subject though, i'm glad to hear everythings going good, are they both going to be finished and on by JAE? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
