MINI R56 JCW GRP Mini Challenge Style Front Bumper.

Our Mini Gen 2 products keep growing due to the demand , and we are excited by this product as the JCW product is so hard to get hold of, with the Challenge MINI parts for the Gen 2 hatch even more difficult to source, so its great to bring the both products to market as a one piece product, with the challenge splitter now an integrated part of the bumper, for road or track use.

This fibreglass front bumper is designed around the MINI Cooper S R56 John Cooper Works bumper with an integrated Mini challenge splitter moulded in.

The bumper mounts to the original fixing points and has a 10mm lip around the central grill opening for mesh, or to fit your OEM grill set

 
 

The bumper is supplied in White or black gel coat ready for painting or wrapping your colour of choice.

get in touch and order yours today, available from stock or a 7 days manufacturing if product is out of stock.


In our next blog post one of these bumpers will be fitted to the www.miniflares.com dail Mini Clubman that has been conversted to a van and we must say looks incredible with all of the other additions that build has undergone, its a real little eye opener.

Porsche 997 R13 GT3R

Updated: Sep 17, 2021

We love to see a GT3 styled car hit the street, most of the time we only get to see these types of vehicles on the race track, as most people that know our brand and what we do a GT3 street car is the pinnacle and we have done a few now over the past few years with our Swedish Ferrar458 GT3 way back in 2014 where it all started for us, this post however is all about this rather special Porsche 997 GT3R R13 kitted that is LS7 powered, not only does it sound incredible from the videos we have seen online, but it has the looks to match with the iconic R13 GT3R wide body.

 

Unfortunately, we cannot stake any claim to this amazing build that’s comes the courtesy of Chavis performance, the LS7 looks right at home in the engine bay and although the Porsche Purist would disagree, but there is no sound like the V8, especially the L3 range, maybe we are a little bias as our Z4 GT3 has the same unit and we just happen to love it.

 

This particular build is missing a lot of the R13 parts like the front splitter, rear diffuser, the dual canards that sit either side of the front bumper, the front and rear bumper grills, whilst the bumper outtakes have also been filled in front and rear, it has a cup rear wing assembly rather than the R13 set up which isn’t as aggressive, but that’s personal choice as, we just happen to love the R13 rear wing set up, but we offer every parts for this build including carbon doors, roof ? flat bottom under floor.

We love the 18” BBS wheel set up on this build and they need to be rather wide for this conversion with 11 or 12” front wheels and 13” or 14” rear wheels in either 18” or 19” size with widths depending on the tyres selected, we have a couple of bespoke suspension set ups for this build too.

 
 

We have a real serious 997 R13 being put together for Joe “997Turbocab” on Instagram being built by Tony at True Performance and we also have an all-new Nissan GTR GT3build that we will be featuring on our blog over the next couple of weeks that we have been heavily involved with, the future is bright, as the future has is plenty of GT3 street builds on the horizon.

Porsche 991 Carbon Roof

New product alert.


The back end of 2020 saw us launch our brand new carbon fibre Porsche 991 R16 Evo aero upgrade, it was hugely delayed for the most obvious reason that affected the global car scene for a while, but we pressed pause for a while to evaluate the market and when it started to pick back up we hit the green light and we haven’t stopped since.

 
 

So with all of the parts made to include the vented Evo bonnet, rear ducktail engine cover and the doors we pretty much have a full carbon fibre car, so it seemed a no brainer to look at making a roof too, and we must say with how the part has come it was pretty much worth the effort.


It is produce in Pre-Preg carbon fibre which is then autoclaved cured, so it’s the pinnacle manufacturing process which we get a super lightweight super strong product which is what you need when you are making a full replacement roof rather than a roof skin.

Porsche 991 GT3RS Carbon Fibre Replacement Roof, Raw Finish & with Clear Coat lacquer

 

The carbon roof is available to order now and comes as a raw product that will require matt or gloss clear coat, or we can clear coat finish on request as an option, the roof will fit all 991 chassis, get in touch with us for more details on how to order.
