Default Front mount fitting

Hiya, Wondered if anyone is around to help me fit my HKS front mount in time for the Jolly green monster remap group buy?

If possible would like to get it fitted the weekend of the 26th 27th of April.
I'm booked in on the 2nd May for a Simtec ecu

Any help would be most appreciated

Many Thanks

Darren

Simb and Daz were both saying last night about getting stuck into a front mount but I suspect your dates might be a bit short notice

Normally i would help no problem, but i'm in the same position as Lee (catalunya 172), i've got loads to do on my car, including running the engine once i get it back.

What's happened Lee ?

I'm in Reading that weekend as well I'm afraid.... you have picked a busy period here for most of the gang I'm afraid.

Check out page 2 of the good times bad times thread there are 3 seperate fitting sessions linked with pictures on each.

bit of a mission si where you have the original fpr you replace it with a bit that comes with the fuel lab fpr but as the td05 20 gram is so big you cant get the pipe on or part in so i had to take turbo ect off to put longer pipe ect

Me and my mate will probably fit it.
I was looking for someone that had done it before so we don't mess up. I won't be very happy if i mess up my P1

Not to worry we will get it done

Would guess it's pretty much like the Hybrid to do, not hard really, the worst bit is removing, cutting and refitting the bumper, the rest is easy.

When i'd did my first one (autobahn88) i got a bodyshop to do the stuff with the bumper, second time round (Hybrid Gt spec) me and chris (WRX RCY) did it but obivously the bumper was already modded then

These threads will help. And just take your time when you cut into the wing and the bumper.
