[surprise] plastic and fibre ? Till now i havent heard about plastic bumpers .Will check about that.I planned to install a fibre one.Yeah i accept that chrome ll be a better choice for good looks ,but that rusting part is pushing me towards fibre ones.How plastic differs from fibre ones ? Also soon post ur amby s front view ,wanna see how the grill appers in the flesh .Thanks a lot for ur suggestions .
Hi Krishram,
I just meant that Fiber one only. I am not 100% sure on this new Grand model bumper, From my point of view it contains some but plastic parts in the center air duct area, So i meant it is combination of both.
I will post it as soon as possible.
One more thing to inform, Kindly add thermocol by yourself itself before taking it to the upholstery guys. Because that is the one arresting the sound and heat. yesterday only i have done that manually after removing the Mats. I pasted the Thermocol in the metal layer which is in between Passenger area and engine bay. Use proper bushes for the Tube and wire outlets.

ambylovers, currently i am restoring my mark 3 ambassador and i would like to fit beige coloured grand dashboard and steering wheel for my car. unfortunately it is not available in kerala. it would be extremely helpful for me if you could enquire and let me know if any dealers in coimbatore have them in stock.
Sure i will let you know. If you want to know more details, kindly call this Spare part shop.

Hi,
Nice works!! Good to see Ambassador restorations like this [:)] A small doubt: Is the windshield glass different in new Ambassador models compared to Mark II, III etc...?
With regards,
