welshbuddy Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 that diffuser looks better than the Trial bumper suprastar 3000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dim Sum Posted December 15, 2011 Author Share Posted December 15, 2011 (edited) I finally got it fitted. A big thanks to Rob Mitchell for being my online advisor, i spoken to Rob about this but did anyone have a fixing point on the diffuser? I used all the original Toyota fixing points and it fitted fine with a slight alteration but i can't seem to get the diffuser part fix onto the fuel tank. Is this normal?

AndrewOW Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 I really want a Trial rear! The car would benefit from one too! Very nice. I like Ed's Top Secret rear end too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would definitely get the edge under the tank secured firmly. When they were first getting popular a few years ago a few people didn't do this. At speed it can catch the air and it's only a matter of time before it rips off the car on the motorway. I did hear of this happening to a few people Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worried that if I bend it back more it will snap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't want to know that it wouldn't fit or was as bent as a Tory Minister. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dim Sum Posted December 15, 2011 Author Share Posted December 15, 2011 NO!! lol I guess expanding foam is a bad idea. I think I'm one or two inch away from the tank.

He's a good guy....until you have a problem, then he doesnt want to know. he seems okay to me, offered me a discount on the next purchase.
