couldnt you get away with just changing back to original bumpers front and rear?? I dunno what the kit looks like off top of my head...could you post a few pics to get an idea or are you too ashamed??

Hey there mate,

I think the car looks quite nice with the kit, although the bumpers are pretty shite (hope you dont mind me saying this)
I think if you change back to original bumpers, and put some 17's or 18's on it will look real good.

Is that car F333? (with a small cut front plate) and did you buy it from a garage? and if yes, was it an ex/px?

Regards,

indy

yes mate, I enquired about it when it was on ebay. (just before fordsportwarrington got it) The guy originally wanted 3k for it. He had a DVD/TV system in it, and would have taken 2.8k for it if I opted to not have that with it.
(I dont think he knew how much it was worth and guess you paid a lot more than that for it? £3500+ maybe?)
It looks really good except those horrible bumpers! The wheels really suit the car, but look a little small with the arches, I think if the bumpers were changed it would make so much difference. (especially the back one, IIRC it has cheap thin mesh in the 2 gaps at the bottom?)


Im sure there was a Imperial Blue Saff at last years Ford Fair which had this kit with normal bumpers and FRS wheels on it? Did anyone see it? have pictures of it? It had a 2.9 V6 24V G.Cossie lump in it.

Its in the Shetlands now im pretty sure about that....
Looked awesome, would love to see some pics of that again.

Get some pics of yours up mate, it aint that bad compared to some crappers ive seen.

IMO its a top car in one of the best colours of the saffs

FWIW I think it looks fine with the kit on, but needs bigger wheels to fill out those arches.

It would be very easy to put back to standard, cost wise i'd say £200 front bumper, £75 rear, sideskirts £100, plus the metal clips.
