Mark, PM a guy on here called Dspeed. He is making the brackets for people.
Cant honestly remember where i purchased my extinguishers but any 1kg or larger powder will be fine. Halfods should be able to sell you one

I ended up getting the 0.8L size from Halfrauds for IIRC £12.99 special offer price, the 1.0L was big in size difference compared this this one.
Thanks for the inspiration Frayz
and thanks to Rob for the bracket
Don't forget a couple of large washers behind the bracket to keep it straight and true.

LOl, Prodrive bumpers are rarer than hens teeth mate... was lucky to find a blue one lol
Hopefully should look a bit better when its painted. Tried on my black foglight covers earlier, now that looked funny

Frayz, Could you not find anything larger
That looks great mate !
Has it silicon pipework opposed to ally like the classic version mount ?
I agree with leaving it silver for another reason..... you have to show it off
Si

Cheers guys,
Si mine is the one with the polished stainless pipework. Its all hardpiped with silicone joiners.
Hopefully getting my bumper in the paintshop next week so i need to get a wiggle on and get it fitted properly. Its 99% there TBH but i want it to fit as perfect as possible.
Because my bumper in a Prodrive version none of the templates fit so all my cutting is just from scratch. I cant belive how much bumper i have had to sand away from the rear in order to create enough clearance.
The bumper im left with is literally just a skin that covers the cooler. lol
