I quite like the look of that :)

Chris :)

It is a very basic cover that would more than likely sit on any bumper as long as it is reasonably flat (no curves etc. It just sits on the bumper and a couple of small chrome steel strips go behind the number plate to hold it.



I took it off to deal with a few jobs and left it off for the time which means possibly forever. :laugh: :laugh:






I think it is a Mitsy part though.

All is clear now, John, thank you.
Looking at the pic, it looked like the lamps were mounted through the shroud...looking at your second pic I have to say it does look better without it

Thanks for the come-back,
Chris :)

Painted but the prep took days. The spare I actually dropped and dented the rim, it fell out of the car when I took it to the tyre fitters so I had to put it right and re-do the paint which sort of ruined it.

They were on my Pinin for months and still look good.



Undercoat on here.





I suppose it is cos I get old motors that the rims need a seeing to. Did the same on my Rav a year or so back.
