Just fitted some Bowler sills....
Still waiting on the race bumper and steering guard but thought I'd fit these while I'm waiting the two or three weeks for stock to filter through Mr. Green

While I was under the car I noticed that it looked like there was a gearbox mount missing - there's certainly a gap between the brace and the underside of the gearbox?

The side step and the original silver sill.

Actually you can retain the step if you want. I prefer the look without. 110 DCPU

Do you him Mark? Mr. Green

18" cost a fortune...cos once you have them you HAVE to fit the bigger brakes (simply because you can).

...I'm still saving.

Essential given the new fines for speeding!!! Mr. Green

Not fitted them? They had MTR's on didn't they? Wish I'd kept them!

All the best Thumbs Up 110 DCPU
