This is my FRP cover

and this is the replacement from ford which fits a standard puma!

Is there a different part number for the cut down version??

When i spoke to ford i gave my chassis number when i enquired about one of these and i made a point in asking if it had 6 or 9 bolt holes. Was told it only had 6...ill be ordering on Tuesday should anyone be interested...

chassis number and FRP specific parts usually bear no relation at all....

you guys should have been around in the first couple of years of ownership...

it was a real blast just trying to get the dealor to get hold of a set of brake pads... the hassle some people had trying to get ford to order direct from Boreham was just unreal...

i think there were occasions where mechanics actually tried to fit standard puma pads...

Just one part of the kit that adds 30bhp to the engine

If you think having one part with no part number is bad, buy a Lotus 340R...

I think they only sell that as a complete unit?

exactly, I used to buy my parts direct from Boreham and by pass the hassle.
Owners now have it real easy now

gosh there are even now FRP aware mechanics that you can count on more than one hand!
