Yet another instalment for you viewing,
Done a bit of filler work 2nite now ran out
Started to smooth things out a little,
Oh and added a side skirt :slayer: ,
Think the shape is coming together well, What you think??
The fog will be in the outer round recesses,(supplied with the kit)

Looks superb mate! I think the front really suits it.. will look really nice all bodycoloured!
One problem though, the skirts are on the wrong way
as for a sedi bumper being worth its weight in gold, ive got one in my garage with the fogs still attatched if anyone wants it great condition too

As for being the wrong way round on the skirts, frpm a side view it compliments the door line other way round looks totally pants, any way who care if they are the wrong way round upside down or back to front its all about modification... any one can pay a pro 2 grand to get a kit done! doing it yourself and being satisfied with the result is all that counts dont you think?? I think it looks good :slayer: :slayer:
noooo, im not saying it looks crap! just saying that they are "supposed" to be the other way heh. It defo looks good
Dazzo, What size are your wheels and Tyres?
Eventually all that Filler will crack and you'll have to do it again in a couple years

Yeah man thats a bit of a bum deal huh, There aint really much i can do about that is there, I only used filler to see how it looks, Think i will have to replace it with fibre glass p40,
As for the wheels im running 215/40-17 rear and 205/40-17 fronts,
There 100pcd with 40 offset,
And whats this Cosmic tipo kit???

The German one.. I thought it was called a Cosmic Kit
Is it safe to use two different sized tyres?
Looking good .
i also looking to put a kit on my tipo
i recently hired a garage 2 weeks ago to make a start ,
cant beleive how good that looks and how its a perfect match
i may have to scrap my work and invest in this ,
i could not find anything that would fit wekk
so went and bought a punto front bumper , ive been working on it two for two weeks now cut and shut trying to get the right shape , i will take pictures and post them tomorrow only got one side done
will have to be looking into this kit looks sweet
how are the fitments on it , i mean did that take much work to get onto the car , i had to cut all mine off the old bumper and mold them to the new bumper ,
also took off the fiat badge and filled aand smoothed that
post up more pictures as you go on mate, looking really good
keep up the good work

Nice work i love the side skirts and deffo loving that kit now mate, looks sweet!!!
Just a thought but i reckon it would look even better with some Wide Escort Cossie style front and rear wings on it too.

oh yeah the german kit is from cosmic tuning aint it! Im such a dumb ass at times... As for different size tyres .. It dont matter as long as you have the same size on each axle... Would't recomend any bigger than 215 or you may run into trouble,,
Frosty you having a laugh aint you bro, Dont touch fords totally detest them soz bro... Cheers for the comment really does help me progress..
took a long time for me to find a kit to use too,
Whats the punto frontbumper looking like now , that would be intresting to see also!!
Well as far as this Bumper goes it was on and fitted with in 2hrs,
the width is the same all that needed trimming was the inside top
lip about 5 inches i took off it, with a angle grinder....wahey
There is two metal straps from the radiator bottom brackets to the
bottom of the bumper and one either side to hold sturdy..
the side skirt is a perfect fit apart from its 2 inches too short... the rear is gonna be the hardest to Needs to be cut at the sides and about 3 inches takin out, Then re-joining... All in all ive put into it so far about 6 hours only,
so not bad going,, ive now got 4 days off of work so hoping to get it done by monday... keep you posted..

top coat.. Looks good.. Totally updated the look of the front..
Got the rear bumper on too, Shut and Cut it and slipped straight
over the top of existing one, Like it was made to fit, :slayer:
