My mate Phil is makeing me a front bumper, using a Kevlar WRC to chop up lol

should look a bit like this when done

Ok.. Kev found himself a WRC front bumper.. Its not the best condition but to be fair he's spent shedloads already and when you are gonna fabricate parts one way or another your gonna want them pretty cheap!!

We have the WRC bumper and my old RS bumper to make something different with or if humanly possible as close to a Maxi bumper as we can
























Plan being to use the sides and bottom section of the WRC bumper and graft it onto the same area on the RS bumper.. In an attempt to re-create the look of the Maxi bumper..

It's going to be a rough ride as it's not an easy task, There will be lots of bracketry being made and fitted and also the usual blend off F**ks and S**ts etc :laugh: :laugh:


Firstly Kev, I need your consent that you will allow me to absolutely rape and abuse your WRC bumper with no crying or remorse after.. Do i have your word


Let the games begin

just a thought, but should you not be putting escort cossy sideskirts on rather than GTI ones? as they look a bit odd where they meet the arches

Bloody hell that shifts! its very agile too..changes direction superbly through the corners......

You're gonna need a hydraulic handbrake though to drive like that lunatic...look @ back wheels theyre locked through almost all of the corners

The yellow one is the same as mine apart from a few cage differances

But my cage isnt finished as yet, we'll be working more on my cage in a few weeks

I couldnt justify quiting the shell ive built because the money and time n effort put into it

I was going to store the yellow one, but Sam loves it and it'll be great fun having his on track with mine now, I know he'll turn it in to a cracking car
