Welcome to the club, so long as it's not 'gay gold' in colour you'll be fine, we'll have some pictures when you can please, we like pictures here.

Welcome to the forum, don't listen to Graham, gay gold is the best colour for a C70.;)

Lots of things you can do, are you looking at styling, or performance?

[QUOTE=c70jme;690558]Any suggestions on things I can do please[/QUOTE] Be prepared to be broke for the forseeable future. By the time this lot have finished with it you will be a lot poorer but even happier with the car :D Welcome to the forum

[QUOTE=c70jme;690574]Bit of both really I was thinking v70r front bumper[/QUOTE] Neither Dave nor I like the R bumper on the C70, and would never let one adorn our cars, but it's your car, so if that's what you fancy fair do's. Just to give you a comparison, C70Geoff, and my car together. Image Image

Post 690766 by t5 pete on 2014-02-21 20:49:43

Well the misses is nagging again wanting a convertible c70 and the first thing ill do is get the r bumper fitted, marmite comes to mind you either love it or hate it for me love them fitted with the r bumper the c70 bumper just seems boring to me

[QUOTE=c70jme;690801]I agree any one know of any for sale[/QUOTE] Now T5Frankie's breaking his R, I guess the bumper will be up for grabs, obviously you'll have to factor in the cost of a respray.

Post 691011 by c70jme on 2014-02-22 19:10:13

What colour is the one he is braking and thanks for letting me know

Post 691017 by stribo on 2014-02-22 19:19:28
