Kennedy Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 ^^is that a replica JAM bumper?I have one that looks exactly the same, but theres no mounting points in the middle.Have you tried fitting it yet? does it fit ok? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobSR Posted August 13, 2009 Author Share Posted August 13, 2009 Yes it is mate. Fits fine, it's not really solid so I'm going to fab up some more places to support it to the chassis Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kennedy Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Fancy doing two lots and i'll buy a set of you?Or you going to be fiberglassing some points on? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobSR Posted August 13, 2009 Author Share Posted August 13, 2009 Think the only way Is gonna be fibreglass mate... The only other thing I saw was an L shaped bracket bolted onto one of the original holes under the boot and then slide that under the top lip of the bumper ... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Glanza_Ragger Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Alright bud, looking good. This is the first time ive been on here in ages 'because ive just sorted a new laptop out That replical jam bumper, i had to sort my mates one out for him. We tacked some tin to the back where the mounting points supposed to go on the boot line, and fiberglassed 4 layers and then skimmed it with filler. drilled the holes and it was all done. christ knows why they didnt make them with the mounting points like the genuine jam items. maybe they like the idea of only having 2 bolts holding it on lolI wish id painted my engine bay now seeing yours, the engines looking tidy too , keep it up Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobSR Posted September 3, 2009 Author Share Posted September 3, 2009 Cheers matey I'll eventually get round to do the rear bumper.. Cheers for the tip..!Updates on the car, well there isn't alot in this thread but.. It's been resparayed "properly" this time in a Toyota gunmetal.. All the sound deadening inside is out, and all the glue from it removed that took ages! Got all the wiring looms now (was looking for floor + roof loom for ages!) and that all fits up properly apart from the fuel pump which I've rewired.. ! (that was due to the na fuel pump hanger)..Engine wise it's all together, got some ultra power 7mm leads for it aswell. I was going to drop it in a couple of weeks back with a standard clutch, but I'm waiting till next month and it'll go in with an exedy paddle..It's also got a c's shifter in now which are mint , and a walbro pump thanks to nath..That's basically it think I'll have to get some new pics up !
