and bumpers are probably filled iwth paper mashe rather than proper bumper material :rolleyes:

Id stick to OEM, if not your gonna have gaps in the bodywork. Find a good scrappy, find a good DG mk3, and raid it!

I've sold hundred's of Imperial panels (over the years) and they always seem good quality...and I know some insurance approved shops use them  :wink:

Interesting comments here boys. Well I got a rear bumper on the way from a VR now so I don't need to worry about that. I'm gonna see what I can find off scrap cars first, might get lucky :)
