hi all, does anyone have any pimps for making a face lift bongo more meaner aggressive at the front?

New shape after '99 or facelift '97 -'99? stick a pic up to give peeps an idea of what you're starting with.

Fit a red TURBO badge on the grill

It really depends on your budget, body kits are available as are lowering kits but these have been reported to make the ride harsh it also depends what colour your beloved is, like m/f it says best off posting up a couple of pics to give us an idea of where we're starting

Putting up pics guidance here http://www.igmaynard.co.uk/bongo/forum/ ... m.php?f=42
basically upload the pics to an external host site at the right size then copy & paste the link under the picture onto here.

You have got to be brave if you want a different look. cutting parts up

One thing I did was to cut out the orange indicator and fit a new bulb that looks blue but flashes orange.
Take a look at the pimping me bigdaddy and dabs did to get my bongo to look the way it does today.

Just standard bongo bull bars, but had to modify the grill to fit.

Could just paint some teeth on it like they did in WW2

I used a seat cupra splitter on the bottom of the bumper to give the front end the apperance of being lower, dummy side steps also make it look lower
