Hi,

 

Couple of questions are they made by ford or fake's made from fibre glass?

Are for a cab or normal car?

 

If made by ford for the cab mo problem go to main dealer, you can still buy all the cips to fit them to your cab.

 

If ford but for normal car best bet pop rivet them along the top then you'll have to screw them to the cab by the front and back wheels as they are about an inch lower, i think you'll do the same with fibre glass ones just take care as not as flexable and could split while riveting.

 

Or you could just bond them on this woyuld be a lot easier.

 

Good luck.

Looks to me as if hes got the RS2000/GTI side skirts with the cossie style front bib onto the standard front bumper.

You can get them from www.espdesign.co.uk

Hi,

 

Thanx, The front bumper is a gti with a cosworth lookalike splitter fitted to it.

The side skirts are rs2000 (same as gti)

 

Glad you like.

I fixed my rear spats on by screwing them to the front of the rear bumper and putting a pop rivet in the rear underneath area where the 3 holes are, i then siliconed the top part to the bumper itself. I put masking tape on the bumper and spat to leave about a 3mm area to silicone, then when i removed the masking tape it left a nice finish.

I wil do a similar thing with the side skirts when i fit them, screw then to the front and back and just silicone them down the length of the car, it gives a professional finish and looks a lot better than looking at rivets screws or filler.
