After the "pounding" i took at the weekend for the state of my coupe, im gonna give up my attempts at TOTB and get it sorted.

What should i get?

Im planning on using the postert rear spoiler and the lister front grill. What bumpers and skirts should i get?

I was thinking about postert skirts and stnd rear bumper, but not sure what to get as the front one.. cada?

you'll want one with good flow for your cooling, you mentioned the piu which i think would be good.
mad car man has one of those front grills for sale.

If youre going for a spoiler I think the cada one would look good on your car, dont like the postert spoiler. tongue

given in to peer pressure have we ross laugh

i'm quite suprised by your decision to be honest!

the PIU front and rear bumpers look great, but would mean changing your exhaust!

Which is something i've been thinking about anyways, as its MEGA loud in the car....i can go back to the place and get them to re-route the exhaust into a twin exit with some silencers..

No spoiler please Ross, the coupe looks awful with a spoiler frown

That rear end shot from Mariusz looks great, combined with a PIU front bumper and LE skirts would look lovely on a banana coupe smile

I'll trial fit the spoiler and see how it looks. I have it already and sprayed but never fitted.

I think im gonna stick with the le skirts actually.. save some money aswell.

Had zender front and rear valance and le skirts.

Rear valance sold to mabr.

Skirts damaged by dropping off kerbs frown

Zender damaged from when my wheel came off and i smashed into the verge.

Front wings paint peeling off and front of bonnet has a bend in the front section and small dent above the badge.

Rear light surround is needing repainted aswell.

So basically full respray.

The little M3 style lip spoiler on the boot is the only one I would consider.

The same i think Ross. Mine is a PIU and looks the same height as Mattys. I also have zender skirts and they line up fine so dont worry about the height.

Also the rear is fine without any sort of extension.

Mrs MABR will be very pleased with your decision Ross as she couldn't believe the state of your coop after I'd talked it up so much. laugh I was on about the performance and completely forgot to mention the condition of the bodywork. crazy

Good luck with your final choices mate. smile
