General Marea Bonnet Lifters

[sharkytaylor]

Hey Guys ,

just thought i'd put a few photos of my latest mod on show .

Ryan , they are the same ones that you bought mate , INXX Bravo Lifters off fleabay .

Fitting didn't take too long and they work and look a treat .

Regards Jason

cool, but 2 things...

1 - part of your intake is missing, why?

2 - are flat wiper blades good?

Ryan ,

cheers mate .

To answer your questions
1

I have found them to be spot on mate ,
no lifting at speed , no noise , wipes the screen
properly , easy to fit and look good .

2

I have removed both resonator boxes and
air intake , have replaced the filter with a
K&N panel filter , and have put in a
direct air feed hose .

Regards Jay

most of us have removed the back resonator box but my point was it looks a little tacky without the front box in place, despite doing nothing it just finishes the look

Ive got those lifters thinking about taking them off because there not very strong the bonnet fell nearly broke fingers when doing and oil change

Heard the same thing on the mondeo owners page about the breakages and a few have suffered from eventual rusting less than 12 months after purchase

It still hasnt detered me from buying any though

 

[drunknspike]

yup rust as well lol thinking of trying to use the boot lifters instead

iv got some, on punto, 2 yrs old, they crap now, worn out and gone rusty.

i have a bravo boot lifter on my bonnet.
you only need one as they are very strong and they lift the bonnet higher than the INXX lifters. i found the INXX lifters very weak and they never fitted properly!!

 

[drunknspike]

think im going to the scrap yard again lol

 

[bulldog5046]

see the odd thing is my INXX lifters (same as fitted to my mates bravo) lift the bonnet higher and hold it without any issues, takes a good tug to get it to come down, there is a small amount of rust around the clips but otherwise perfect
