Would this be a previous members car by any chance. Shame about the front bumper damage. What do you plan to do replace it with - a standard one or import another of the same style? Unless it is repairable of course. |

Yes, this is a previous members car, Jaymartin is the guy i got it from, although there is abit of work to be done, I'm up for the challenge, cos my last car was hit by a bus before i got stuck into working on it and here was the finished product...

If that front spoiler is going to replaced I'd buy it from you!
I've got a few spare interior parts here aswell. |

You do molds of FG? I am getting a bonnet from someone in Sydney soon but need a front bar too! I have Silvery that looks similar to yours (on the outside!) and Smashie which is cut in half atm waiting for a cut and shut when we have time! |

I dont do the moulds, but ill delegate it off to someone i know that does, if the price is right, we might be able to get a limited run of them if there popular. I already have interest from 1 other person so far. |

Yeah, even though the damage is pretty bad, i still think itll be cheaper to repair it than buy a new stock one, there over $500, ouch. There will be other repairs on the car too so might as well add one more job to the list |

It aint my car... aint going to get rid of it that easy lol.
Spoiler is slightly different to yours. The one you have is more a duck tail (which is what i love!) this is more of a lip spoiler for the boot.
Justin Keep the front bar you know you want too! Thank god this car went to a good home. Don't forgot im seeing Nick(suzukigeek) sometime this week so let me know if you want me to grab the headlight for you. |

You're right about the spoiler ThePorko! If I look at the sides of it now I can notice the difference! |

ouch Bumper still looks repairable even though someone's had a rough go in the past with some matting. Not sure but I think the rear spoiler is a suzuki spoer one - I might be wrong though.
Bet you're motivated to start repairing it! (has 'it' got a name? ) |

in the City - Born with a silver spoon in your mouth - used for cutting the coke etc - conflation of several signifiers etc - wealth, youth, arrogance, Masters of the Universe
It might not be so nowadays but it was back in the heady days of porsches and ferraris and club class flights to New York for supper etc..... before black wednesday brought it all down to earth with a crash |

Hmmm strange how sayings get their meanings twisted. Born with a silver spoon in your mouth simply means inherited wealth Cocaine is generally snorted so don't see where the spoon comes in. Heroin on the other hand is usually heated on a spoon or similar before injecting...
Remember though - just say no!
Anyway back on topic
The damage to the bumper looks fixable but then I know nothing about fibre glassing lol. Sneaza would be able to work his magic on it though! |

Maybe a new club slogan - ClubCappo it's not just for cars!
Hopefully Sneaza will be along soon to cast his expert eye over the damage. |

i would imagine how busy dave is going the front, rear and new sub inclosure!
Im sure that front bar can be rescused! Speak to melvin to ask his mates at xracing, that should be pretty good with fibreglass. |

If you make copies of the front bar let me know as I would be interested as well. I wouldnt mind a copy of the rear spoiler too but thats probably a bit of an ask. They would suit my silver cappo nicely. |
