Git indeed! The car looks awesome :)

I take it those are Bennett's turbo bits too? The downpipe looks interesting....presumably his was a non-PAS car too?

cheers

Nah the car was a power steering one actually, I never saw it fitted so can't comment how well it actually fits round everything but its a bit of a mess, does the job though, i'll line it all up on mine when the time comes and see if its worth remaking as this is about 2" then suddenly steps up to 3" then ends randomly. Also got bored so removed the roof aerial and smoother it over to clean it up a bit, no use for it now with no speakers or stereo!

Nice :) 2" is a bit small really....stock (2.5") was a touch restrictive. I guess it's probably all that would fit.

cheers

Jack as high as possible, don some kind of eye protection, use a ratchet spanner on the nut and a socket on the bolt (I think it's that way round) and persevere!

My bet it that you'll probably snap a bolt or two on the rear bumper, they are a PITA, they are open to road salt and corrosion, so tend to be a nuisance to remove. So might be worth getting some spares before you start.

That's what I did to four of them!

Anyway, your car is looking uber pimp! They are deadly mean in black, such a shame no one saved my black saloon, couldn't give it away.

If all else fails, they're cheap enough from Volvo.
