Hi mate.
Someone else pointed that out latter on in the day. Berk
The great fat man from the north gave me them
The wife thinks i am a right idiot
Cheers Mark.

Hi everyone.
Thanks to the great macplaxton, my motor now has a set
of shiney front and rear bumpers. He kindly picked them up for me
while on his travells at the end of last year. This must now be the
blingyest DL left on the road
Cheers Mark.

You know the score: PICS!

If VND isn't around to host, send them here.

New shiny bumpers!




















It has to be said, that this is by far and away now the most awesome 300 in the known world.

Ok. (25.4mpg? I get more hooning around in a Vario )

Not going 0-70 in 7.8 seconds everywhere you dont, captain slowpoke cantshift.

NIce bit of bling there Mark!

What a Bobby dazzler!

I was wondering how the pointy front bumper would look on a flat nose. Hardly notice it.

Where's the extra lamps gone to?

Hi lads.
Ben, thanks again for putting the pictures up. Also thanks to macplaxton for more bits
falling of the back of his lorry . As for the front spots, i will have to have a think about that one
They were getting a bit rusty at the bottom so might get some new ones
Cheers Mark.

Not in the wet you wont (Besides it's a bit quicker than 7.8 if you can get traction - 7.2 is the book figure)

Mark - car looks great! Your parcel will be on its way to you tomorrow

The car's looking great, Mark

From what car did the bumpers come from? I was always under the impression that MY81 (the last model year with the old nose) and MY82 - 85 bumpers were different ... Can't remember who told me that, Foggy maybe?

Cheers

Tom

MY83 360GLS, Tom.

From my glance at the old ones, the MY81 wraparounds are flatter across the front. MY82-MY85 ones are a little pointy on the front edge in the middle, but nothing too serious. Across the back edge against the body they appear the same.

Hi Rich.
Your quite right. There is a slight difference but all i had to do was to
use two bolts that were a bit longer on the bottom bolt holes and it was a
streight fit
Cheers Mark.

Hi all.
I wonder where the DLS dash clocks that were for sale in Holland went to

Cheers Mark.

I wonder. To the "bling king" I expect

Cheers

Tom
