I think it works out about Ł500ish for the SportKa Bumpers.I think go for the Racing arches,they look fairly standard but will allow you clearance for some bigger wheels if thats what you need.

Right first update since we got it home 
Firstly went round to friends last night to look at the suspension set up on his Westfield. Ideally i want to use as many off the shelf parts as possible for the bolt on part of the conversion. Looking at the prices the genuine Westfield stuff is very well priced
Rear hub set up
Rear wishbone inboard side
Overall rear suspension view
Spoke to Danny and the plan is to use the adjustable Ledas that came with the car if possible
Then today Trev and I removed the pony 1.3 Duratec. So if anybody needs a engine for their Ka/Fiesta give me a pm
With the engine out, we had a little tidy up then decided to fit the dummy YB in the engine bay to enable us to start working out where the engine will be positioned
Mmmm YB power
Just got to remove brake/fuel lines and the petrol yank and its ready to go to Adrenaline

DJM KA's are all transverse engines using evo gearboxes and the severn valley one was a zetec, still thats not to say it has not been done before.

Ok so you done a little bit, Marco how does the MT75 and T5 compare with regards size? we need to keep the tunnel as narrow as poss on this one to fit richies arse in between the tunel and sill .
