I've been chatting to a few people on Facebook and I'm more than likely going to be making some replica Touring car front bumpers for the 850's, is anyone interested?

Yeah.

Make one for the front of that awesome 460 sat on your drive. ;)

Yeah I'll be making a more 'road friendly' version, obviously the original version is way to low for everyday use.

Ok, after a slight delay I'll be getting on with this tomorrow. Had a slight delay as a friend thought he could get hold of an original one to clone, sadly this isn't now happening so I'll be starting on the build up tomorrow. On the plus side I have a friend on Facebook who actually has an original Brand New never used touring car bumper, he's taken some measurements off it for me and provided a few pictures as well.

Ok, sorry for the lengthy wait but personal problems at home have kinda set me back a little. Will be starting on these this week. I hope to have a prototype ready in a week or two at the most, how soon would those that have paid a deposit be in a position to purchase?

What a salesman!!!!! Take deposits, but then get the buyers to remind you who has paid them as you can't be arsed :ashamed:

Can be easily done ive found, especially when it's organising deposits for events, Gothenburg was a pita, being on a number of forums etc it was hard keeping track.

Mike, you not grown up yet?.. I really couldn't give a rats ass what you think so please keep your petty, small minded comments to yourself.

Oh and I've already checked Paypal, can only find two and I'm sure there where five.

The problem with your question and now your answer is people could claim they paid you such and such cash .
How will you manage to dispute it as there are some sharks out there.

Good point, however if they have paid then they'll have proof.

Sorry Geoff, due to personal circumstances ( Separating from my wife, losing my house, Wife passing away) I'm now not in a position to continue with making these. Apologies for not getting back to everyone but I've had a lot on my plate lately.

Basically any fiberglassing I was doing/going to do is now at an end, at least until I can find a new workshop (so at least not for a year or so)
