I would like to change my bumpers
What is easier to get hold of if not mugen, must it be imported from Japan
If so would that be very expensive?

Yeah you would prob have to look to the land of the rising sun alright but the problem is shipping something that size, oh and the bumpers go for mad monay...

We ran into a lot of trouble trying to ship my sides steps since the post office in japan, Fed Ex etc etc just wont take something that long.

So your best off waiting for something to come up on this side of the world, or modifing your exsting one

I Have experience in working in glass fiber and carbon fiber a few years ago. I could make a mould from a template. So would need to get an old bumper that could be cut up redesign . Where can I find a cheep pair of bumpers. Dont want to use the good ones on my car as I need to use it during the design stage.

Do you know here the refll taps are for the aircon ?

Aircon refil bits are under the bonnet,

If the car is still std then it will be running on R12, there are conversion kits available to convert the system to R134 which is a cheaper and more readily available gas.

Most aircon specialists should be able to help. if you just get it topped up, make sure they put the dye in, in case you actually have a leak, it will make it easier to trace as it then glows under ultraviolet light...

Also, when it is fixed, it's best to run the system for about 10mins a week to stop the seals drying out which also then lets the gas out.

Ady.

Adrianp you seem to now more than do. When i switch the a/c on nothing happens, ie the revs dont drop or the engine labour
could that be gas problem? Does the car have 2 fan belts or does one power all systems?
Sorry for all the Q
