Roverbreaker has found the V8 bumpers

STUBIE · 11th April 2010, 11:37

As long been touted on the forum that Roverspares had a container full of bumpers some of them premium style, well he has located them and they are on ebay... unfortunately these are unfinished and about as much use as a choc teepot as they don't have the fixings for the indicators, fogs grills etc.

Some nice prices on Mk1 bumpers though.

As you say if these haven't got the brackets fitted and other parts are no longer available.
Not much good.

That's right, only useful to someone that has it fitted already and has damaged the plastic.

What a shame,they look fantastic.

Would it be a task too far to get the fixings fabricated?

For that price it would be worth fabricating some brackets to hold the fogs and indicators.

The grill surround could be more of a problem though!

well, thats the only "large" bit of the set up - sure someone can talk to a chinese man somewhere to get the rest with comparatively low carriage? You'll have to have a different badge system though...
