Postby Valsheda » Sun Apr 10, 2005 10:55 pm

HIYA ALL ,

WHILST LOOKING AT THE VARIOUS PICS OF CUSTOM VANS ON THIS
SITE AND OTHER WEBSITES , I HAVE NOTICED A FEW HAVE SOME DIFFERENT FRONT BUMPERS ,

DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THESE ARE CUSTOM ONE OFFS , OR ,

ARE THERE POSSIBLY BODY KIT MANUFACTURERS THAT DO CATER FOR TRANSIT VANS ,

I READ AN ARTICLE ABOUT A GUY THAT FITTED THE SERIES 1 RS TURBO
FLARED ARCHES AND SIDE SKIRTS TO HIS Mk4 TRANSIT , IT LOOKED COOL ,

YEP THATS THE ONE ,

LOOKING AT THAT PIC , IT LOOKS LIKE HIS BUMPER IS MADE UP OF ONE AND A HALF STANDARD BUMPERS , JOINED TOGETHER NICELY AND WITH FORD FOCUS INDICATORS FITTED , HHHMMMM SOUNDS LIKE A BIT OF WORK BUT COULD BE A GOOD COST EFFECTIVE OPTION !!

DO YOU RECKON THOSE HEADLAMP PODS ARE FROM A COSSIE :?:

IVE NEVER SEEN LIGHT PODS AVAILABLE FOR A TRANSIT EITHER

that white tranny was in performance ford in feb 2003.it got a cossie turbo engine and a flame kit on itit says in the mag the headlights are bmw ones dont say what series with sierra saphire twin lamp covers again no name or year.the bumper is two old shape front bumpers bonded together with corners from a new generation to form the shape then filled and smoothed to shape the body. good luck if you are to do any of this all i have done on my tranny is to fit a reanult laguna front splitter to my bumper(looks like the one on a sierra but a bit deeper.) :)

A bit of a pig to fit. :roll:
Basically a giant air-fix kit, without instructions.
Quite a bit of cutting to make stuff fit, & a bit of filling.
It came without fixing bolts, screws or rivets.
But its worth the hassle.
I've the twin headlight kit to fit soon.
E-mail me & I'll mail you more pictures of the body kit as it was going on.
I've loads of photos. ( cjmonwheels@hotmail.com )
Cheers mate.
