Do you guys remember
this thread? Well I couldn't leave it this way...
So I picked up this:
Notice anything missing?
At £178 EACH they weren't going to be bought from a $tealer so a little ingenuity was required ???
And the end result was...
And all OEM which makes it even sweeter! Plus @ Indian discount prices of course!

Very kind chaps - thanks.
Hard work - 4 weeks waiting for the bodyshop to pull their finger out! And 3 rejections...
I'm happy at this cost.

When you care as much as you (and I suspect more than a few others here) do, it HAS to be right. More so when you're paying the bill and regardless of any 'Indian Discount'.....
There is no excuse for low quality. Sorry one of my pet hates..... :-[

I might be being thick here but haven't you just put EARS on a standard bumper (nothing wrong with that) and painted the bottom bit silver?
Not that I know how the back end looks on le mans in the flesh
I'd considered doing that....fashioning stick on ears
