    WANTED: Defender bumper - straight no rot pls

    OK, here are the pics: As you can see it has some surface rust, but is generally solid and straight, just needs blasting and painting really.

    ouch my eyes !!!

    Looks more like a vinyl wrap than an actual paint job, so easily removed.

    Oh crap, I completely forgot to take those pics :frusty: I'll take them tomorrow, in the mean time here's a pic of it when it was on my Landy:

    can you make turbo boost at lower rpm

    You can tweak the injector pump to give better off boost performance, and it does make a difference.

    Light pods and dodgy wrap/paint aside it doesn't look too bad to me. Shame it's obviously been 'rebuilt' from a stolen TD5....

    I'm based near Bristol (Yate) and have a fairly decent one kicking around if it's any good to you? I'll take some pics tonight after work.

    Engine Swap

    What about gay ones? Joking aside, if you're methodical and label all the wires up then the electrickery shouldn't pose any real problems as far as I'm aware.

    I'm off to look at what is potentially my first defender on the weekend! :)

    I painted my grille and light surrounds with 'Simoniz tough black' satin: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B004R95MXU Gives a lovely satin finish that looks like fresh factory original plastic, and seems very durable so far.

    Haha, I think it's something we all suffer from. And they are like the Forth Bridge, you're never finished.....

    Driving lights and the law

    That's why you use a relay. The switch itself carries very little current.

    how sealed should my air intake be??

    Have you sealed the fanny valve on the air box? EDIT: Sorry, didn't see the above post about putting a coke bottle cap in there.

    how sealed should my air intake be??

    I've sealed mine up pretty much everywhere with tigerseal and it doesn't completely cut out when covering the snorkel, but I've been in water over the bonnet and never had a problem with water getting into the intake. The fact that it doesn't stall tells me that air must be getting in somewhere...

    Some of the scum now in jail.

    It says they operated between two 2005 and 2010, that wasn't referring to the age of Land Rovers they were targeting. Glad the thieving scum are behind bars, not for long enough though :mad:

    Actually that's a good point, I do have spots and a winch so I'll stick with a 100amp.
