My Slightly changed front and rear spats

Post by Carlos GTS »

Hi all,

Well I've never really posted any pics up of my car, but I've just spent out and changed a few bits on the front.

I've had my Bomex bumper smoothed and the hole filled at the front, removed the front fogs and created backing plates for some smaller more subtle fogs, all finished in Black mesh to set it off. Oh and modified Uk side stripes and a couple of SS bars ha!

I've phonix power skirts and MRD rear spats all added too her over the last couple of years.

Anyway.. Let me know your thoughts.. C

Cheers for the comments all!

In Reply. yeah I totally agree needs lowering. And I've very nearly done it a couple of times. The problem I have is it's my dailey driver and the roads round here are shocking. I've already had to replace/repair the front bumper 3 times and to lower it would be unbearable.

Wider rear tyres.. yeah definately.. I've got 225's on the rear which came with the wheels.. Will go for 235s when They wear down..

Hello mate,

The SS bars are drilled through and then Fibre glassed on the inside so they don't move.

Cheers for all the comments.. I very nearly went for a border front as I wasn't really likeing the Bomex anymore. But after a few thoughts and a bit of a discussion with my Uncle who did the work, I decided to keep the bomex and just change it a little. It's amazing how different it looks without the letterbox. Much prefer it now, especailly with the smaller fogs.

Well guys if I get a company car any time soon.. I'll be sending her off to get her lowered..

FYI this is how the front used to look
