How much you love your car ?

I like the cutouts behind the number plate, just what i was thinking about for mine

Martin - have you got that RS2 bumper to fit yet? Me and Tom are getting the same ICs as you - should be in the next week or so. I need to cut the back of the bumper don't I? I was thinking of having a cut out behind the number plate but I would remove the number plate for trackdays or for a fast run on the roads.

No still havent sorted that yet, havent had much time to do anything on it the last couple of weeks, or months even. i did a trial fit and it only needed trimming slightly, but if you mount your i/c as close to your flywheel pulley as you can, mine is about an inch away, maybe if it was 15mm away it will fit fine,
i thought about cutting a big hole behind the number plate but leave 2 strips so you can still screw the number plate to the bumper.
are you getting the x-member made at the same place as tom then?
when will you get your i/c?

I think the ICs are sent - I don't know how long they take to get here - how long did yours take? Tom should be making me a crossmember as well.

[martinjs]

Think it took about 3 weeks. cant remember exactly
are they being sent together? what did you pay for them?

v nice car i love it.. where can i buy that mod? (the mean looking car mod)

Tom, heres where i cut my bumper.
the yellow lines are roughly what i cut off, the arrow is where the LH grill used to clip into but it clips through the centre grill also, which is held strongly enough anyway so i just lopped it off

ps.sorry for the thread hijack

Cheers Martin. Sounds like it should be fairly straight forward. Im gonna cut away the number plate backing area and fill with mesh, then attach the number over the mesh. Should increase air flow.

I spoke to the Police regarding moving the number plate. Ie onto the bonnet. Basically if the car has a bumper that the number plate fixed to originally, then it must always do so. If it has no bumper then it can be mounted anywhere.
