Fitted it this afternoon. Needed two of us really, as I kept the bumper on....as I don't know how to remove it

Sorry for the dirtiness of my car!

 

Are you happy with it chris? it looks the dogs mate cant wait for myn to come

 

Looks a bit more chunky than I expected...

But looks really nice!! Finished off the rear end nicely IMHO!

 

does it feel any different on the road at all?

 

Looks mean and aggressive

Still got those dodgy pink stickers on then

 

blimey you dont hang around

looks lovely mate finishs the rear end nice,

cant wait to see a classic Version

darc

 

Looks aceI want one,good job on getting the whole thing started

 

Oh yes!!!

 

Like it - only thing i might change would be the silver screws to black ones.

 

Looks good..! i agree about the screws.

 

looks good matey. how much was it? are the bug ones same price?

 

found it now, sorry lol.might have to invest in one.

 

Looking good mate!

Think i'll be having one of those for my bugeye.

 

How long did it take? How difficult was it to fit? Looks good

 

Chris that looks very nice , how close does the front edge fit to the underside..? I just worry it might 'catch' air..!

If possible could you post a few pics from under the car (no need to jack up) from forward looking back (ie in front of the rear wheels)..?

Soooooo tempted, just need to convince myself about negative aero effects..

I'd agree about painting/marker penning the rivet heads black..

 

Ill 3rd that!

Lets get some hassling done

Theyll sell loads!

 

hehe, yeah still got the stickers on the side n one!

I will get some more pics tomorrow for you.

I do agree though about the silver bolts. I did think maybe about getting those black number plate screw cap things??

It isn't going to help aero dynamics by any means But I'm not sure how much drag it will give. I have been for a hard blast tonight, and it still on! It comes with two brackets for the 'inside', but feel more may help. Although I don't know where you'd bolt them to.

It wasn't difficult to fit really. Would be a lot easier with the bumper off, but it is do-able! You just have to reach in from under the car to tighten the bolts. This wouldn't be needed if you used rivets though. It took me 1.5 hours (which included jacking up, tidying etc).

 

Some more pics

 

does set off the back end nicely

 

What size rivets would you need for this? as ive just been looking at black rivets on the bay.

 

5mm mate. I'd recommend putting a washer on the inside of the bumper though as well if using rivets.

 

Just seem these:

BLACK ALUMINIUM POP RIVETS (PRB13) on eBay, also, Other Car Parts, Car Parts, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 24-Apr-09 14:49:33 BST)

Should be about the right size, although 10mm length would possibly be better..?

Thanks Chris, looking forward to seeing some more pics..

 

is there anywhere that does a diffuser like that for the classic....???

i know HT Autos do one similar but doesnt look as good as that.

 

looks good

 

They'll be spot on mate, and you can use the washers which come with the diffuser on the inside of the bumper so you don't destroy it.


It's raining here, so no pics today Will try later though before it gets dark

 

looks awsome does that , finishes it off very well

 

looks great id like one for mine but as mentioned before concerned about wind trap and parachutte effect.

 

Hi,

We will be making this diffuser to fit ALL models
