We have another Spider up on the coast in Gosford that would join us and I'm sure Divace would be up for a run.
This could be a good way to give that new suspension fitout a test run once you've got it done.?!

haha you are going to laugh at this but i have the chrome bumper set ready to install and the only reason i haven't done it is because three days after i bought the car a woman at the mall reversed into the car ( don't worry no damage) and the thing that saved me was the ugly looking bumpers so now im a bit paranoid to put the chrome ones on which is a bit crazy. Me and my ugly bumpers have a love hate relationship haha

Function over form with the bumpers you reckon.. :lol:

I'm due for a blat up the coast, it would be cool to get 3 or 4 of us together for a morning sprint.
Once the Fiat Nationals are done and dusted I might take my focus off my 131 and back onto the Spider for something a little more leisurely.

I know how you feel, those bumpers have protected mine in a small traffic incident, however since then I have removed them and will be doing the pre74 conversion soonish.....

If you're looking for bumper bar options I know that Divace73 on the forum here lives in Sydney and has a set of 79/80 bars for sale which are in decent condition. She'd look nice and tidy with a chrome smile and shiney bum.
thanks for the promotion Fi8spider...still have them in you want the bigger units.
