Yeah that is what happened to me, except I was on the Southern Motorway at the time and I had to wait for the next exit...

I was so excited to have my bumpers on after years of procrastinating I forgot to tighten the bolts up - were only hand tight.

oh so you have one but just with holes in it?

blekkja · September 13, 2011, 04:46:04 PM

It is more of a completely melted mess - dropped down right onto the extractors.

Would be keen as for one without holes... ideally with the complete lead-in attachment too.

o ok. have u tried graeme. otherwise i can try to get a hold of my parts guy but he has been recently hard to get in contact with

blekkja · September 13, 2011, 08:39:59 PM

Graeme?

I've been putting off going to my parts guy over this, too. I prob should just man up - but it has been real awkward the last couple of times I've gone out.

If somebody around here has upgraded to TC and has spares lying about useless would be way easier.

kierbear · September 14, 2011, 08:14:57 AM

haha where do you get your parts from? mines really awkward too. graeme is username avengerparts i think and he sells bits and peices

There is a guy out of Hamilton towards Morrinsville who has a couple of cars at the back of his farm. I brought my first GLS from his son.

It may be, also, that the last couple of times I have been in contact with him about a part that in the end I actually haven't needed it. I'm worried that I may have been accidentally dicking him about and feel a bit silly.

o ok, mines got about 7 of them wrecked in a shed, and a couple still whole but everytime i txt his number i get replys from another person and its a real man hunt. mines from waipawa, i can try get a hold of him if u want, he will definately have the part u need

I will let you know. I also posted this on oldschool just before I discovered this site (from perving on somebody's beautiful blue 1500) and I think Joker was having a look for me. Otherwise I will take a big breath and ring my guy.
