8-) thats good
Im hoping to fit your old (revamped) round mouth bumper this week along with the front wings i got from Dino :)

Also fitted a type s intake with k&n flat panel filter and adjusted the dizzy timing so the car is running a lot better and pulling well at lower revs. im surprised how easy it was to adjust and a bit annoyed it took me so long to get round to sorting this out - timing has been a fraction out since i did the belts and tensioner last year :roll:

appreciate the use of your barn to fix a few niggles with the lude - it was a pleasant change to be working indoors sort of :lol:

Re: BB4-New parts fitted

Post by vanzep » Thu Feb 28, 2013 5:29 pm

Fitted a load of new parts and put the front of the car back to R81 Milano Red. The phantom grey thing was only ever meant to be a temporary thing :lol:

Fitted:New front bumper and spoon lip, new front wings, one piece headlights, cooling plate, and type s intake.

Here a few pics i took today after carrying out some routine maintenance - id felt something not quite right with the car and found that the 4" bolt that holds the alternator in place was almost completely out :x seems like a lucky escape as that bolt would have dropped on the belts or pulleys and gone flying :evil: i dont think its possible for that bolt to work itself look :? :roll:
