Anyone ordered an R32 bumper from this ebay seller?
« on: 10 April 2013, 00:02 »
Just wondering if anyone has ordered one from this seller and could tell me:
1: Are they sh!t?
2: Does the OEM R32 grills fit into the recesses?

Looking to make my car look presentable  :laugh:

Cheers for any replies Pez

i emailed them once, the reply wasnt in the best english but what i ascertained from it is that "yes, fit car good, no cutting"

as you can imagine i wasnt too sure but if you go for it then makesure that you pay using paypal, ebay are quite good as well, also have a look at FK Automotive £60 posted, i know Nino has had some tough love from them but when i bought one i recieved it by the end of the week, pitty you hadnt posted before hand as i have just solf my Rep to a local  :lipsrsealed:

Cheers for the reply, by jiggery pokery do you mean they are too small/too big? Need glueing in or something?

too small though any good body shop would make a black mesh fit properly and minimal hassle

I have a rep one I got from Coolio the official grilles WILL NOT fit any rep bumper you HAVE to silicone them to fit which is ok because no rep bumper has the bolt in sections in the bottom of the bumper.

As for FK give them a wide birth, trust me.

the EASIEST Way to attach grills with NO mess is just mini black cable ties in the top corners of the grill into the bumper...you need like a 5m single hole. cant see it, keeps them in place, anytime you want to replace grills just snip and redrill......WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER
