Colour coded. That looks really nice.

I'll just come out and say the contrast looks bloody awful!

Think that's a colour coded consensus then! Hehe fortunately fits with what I was thinking.

I wish I could find a Nightfire Cheetah picture - trawled the web and none at all that I can see!

Well picked the kit up yesterday after nipping to Bicester Village for some retail therapy! Its in good nick (apart from one missing front trim which I knew, and the damaged wheel arch trim which I also knew). Will get some pics of it later taped to Meg to try it out.

The rear bumper looks in pretty good condition too - few places to tidy but nothing serious at all so if anyone wants an unusual bumper make me an offer! So today I will examine the damaged bit and see how bad it is warped, get it straight then get some p40 on the back of it to sure it up.

I offered the kit up to Meg's drivers side and popped it on with tape.... what you think?





I also took some to show the difference between spacing on TF and F front bumper (the back is surprisingly similar needing almost no adjustment - its the rear mud guard that's making it stand off in the main pics.):

would have had a punt at the bumper, but I only have about £10 spare at the moment. :)

Anyone know how to make 'moulds' of these things for future use? Also so I can make two fronts that actually fit a TF bumper....

It's the sort of thing best left to someone who knows what they are doing, which is why I am paying someone to mould the bonnet which is £360 and that is a good price.

Blimey - what about small things? I have to copy one of the bumper inserts as one is missing!

That is just for the mould. Producing the bits from the mould is extra.

It's a skill I wish I had, but I don't think it is something you can just jump into.
