Title: Rear bumper !
Post by: Uruk Hai on 16 May 2007, 18:06

I'm after a bit of advice, I'm after another rear bumper for my car as at the moment it has a tow bar fitted and I want rid. Should I get a new bumper from someone like GSF (how well do they fit  :undecided:) or would it be better to buy a genuine second hand one, I can get it painted no problem but it seems as though genuine second hand ones fetch as much if not more than a new patern part, are patern parts that bad ? What am I to do ?

gies a shout mate  :wink:

edit - i could post something more useful like - the brackets are crap and took me ages tae align... but they go on fine. as a bonus the front bumper slid straight into my small bumper rubber bits on the side. i cannae complain cos i got front and rear together for £10.50
