Hi all,
I'm trying to fit bumpers onto our Mk1 GT6. My first
attempt installing the rear bumpers didn't go all that
well. The brackets are a real PIA. Pretty sure
they're both bent. One was off the car the other
(under the tank) is clearly bent too much & will need
to come off the car. I'm wondering if anyone out
there might have a bracket that they KNOW is "OK" or
correctly bent for a proper fit & would be able to
make a trace of it & mail it to me? I can bend the
brackets using a vise & a pipe wrench.
As far as the front bumper goes, I have a bumper bar &
over riders and the brackets. Any photos of how all
that goes together? I see the parts diagram in the
Bentley manual. Are those "distance spacers" nothing
more than washers? Perhaps they're "cupped" washers?
I don't have any so I can't tell.
Last, the diaphragms on both seats are shot. Who
carries them?
Cheers,
