I'll be getting a custom liner made as the people that installed my first do-luck bumper about 5 years ago never put them back in. Lazy sons of b**ches... I guess they couldn't be ar$ed to drill a few holes and tap a couple of threads.

 

Needless to say I won't ever be using them again as they didn't bother keeping them or the standard front bumper either. I went back a week later to pick up the bits and they said that they "must have thrown them away". Not likely...

How much did all the bits cost mark. I may be doing this in the future :D my boyfriend has a spare GT35R turbo

 

Hi Claire,

 

I typed a whole long story and it didn't post :(

 

Basically, so far it has cost close on 13k. If your car is already manual and not VVTI then you can probably bank on 9-10k if you use genuine new well branded parts. Obviously you can go cheaper if you use 2nd hand or non-genuine or cheaper bits but I wanted to do it once properly so went with what I thought were pretty top end parts.

 

Good luck, it adds up quickly :)

Cool, enjoy. It's not the labour that gets you though, it's the parts. That price was excl labour by the way.
