I called Unique Auto Sports and the person I talked to said $200 per light. O_O

I find this a little far fetched.

Wouldn't something like trailer lights fit in instead?

lights

Post by Cohn »

Hey Guys - I haven't posted here for about 6 months...

BUT I JUST WANT TO GET SOMETHING OUT IN THE OPEN ABOUT SERIES 2 BUMPERS AND LIGHTS.

I know that at the time I was doing the whole modification to my car - I found it BLOODY hard to find good information on the whole fitting process (plus all the replacement lights that people were talking about were from a VW car in the UK (LUPO)). The bumper can be easily fitted to pre97 FTO's and the lights are easy to find in Australia.

I have a 95 gpx and I MYSELF (A PERSON WITH ABSOLUTELY 0 knowledge of cars) Fitted a series 2 bumper.

I got all the lights myself and did the modification to the standard bracket.

All i used was a drill, some screws, glue and a spanner...

So, I just want to confirm - for anyone thinking that it's hard to do/can't be done - you are wrong.

I should have done a tutorial on this whilst I was still in the process of doing it - but should anyone have any questions about the types of lights I used and how to modify the bracket - I will happily advise you.

I am happy to post some photo's of my baby with the series 2 if someone is interested to load it for me.

i don't know, maybe i've been using series 2 front for too long, i don't find it attractive anymore. I would prefer a bonnet mod instead :(
The difference between what we do and what we are capable of doing would suffice to solve most of the world's problem.
