mk4 R32 "look a like" Body Kit
« on: 14 March 2013, 01:03 »
Are these actually any good? They're about 200 notes on ebay. Plus I guess you will need a new exhaust system to fill the twin holes at back? .

Any help of people who have bought these rip off mods would be helpful as I might purchase one this weekend if they are.

What are they made out of? I would stay away from fibre glass bumpers and they crack easily

I too want to know you want plastic kits not firbre  glass. Butvid assume they ok but would trial fit them up to car to make sure if anything needs cutting etc it done before painting. I too would like to know a good quality non gen kit??

these kits are good for the money, the fixings are from an OE bumper however there is a difference in the way they look that you can tell from the outset, they are ABS plastic as well

Sorry to interrupt this thread but does anybody know if the single style exhaust will fit the r32 rear bumper? (will the cut out in the bumper line up with the exhaust?)

There  ok But The front bumper of all reps do not sit as deep as Genuine R32 fronts but at the cost of the kit being less than 1 gen bumper its a no brainer to most!! But be aware some ebay kits are horrendous Fit My first anni kit was removed after 2 weeks utter crap cracks in the side skirts within a week and that was abs plastic so just be aware some are not good

Fibreglass anni kits on ebay are about 150.  Maybe that could be an option for me.
